Cults reworking debut album as a Hip-Hop Mixtape

This is great. I love seeing outsiders give hip-hop the respect we deserve:

While it’s true that Cults’ rather plain debut could have done with a little livening up, Madeline Follin and Brian Oblivion seem to be taking it to the extreme with plans to release a hip hop mixtape version of the album. As Brian recently told Spinner, they’re “changing all the songs up and getting up-and-coming rappers, guys like Freddie Gibbs and Lil B [to guest on them].”

“That’s going to be really exciting. We’re dealing with a lot of really bizarre managers and interesting personalities,” he added.
