From New York Mag:

Spoken-word and hip-hop artist Saul Williams toured with Nine Inch Nails last year, and Trent Reznor liked him so much that he decided to produce his new album. The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust!, a mind-boggling fusion of genres — think NIN meets Gnarls Barkley meets Justice, if you can do so without your head exploding — will be released through Williams's Website as a free download (or you can chip in five bucks to support Saul).

This is some *hot* shit. Reznor is really breaking out of his box and Williams skill with words brings new intensity to the music.

• Read the NY Mag article
• Buy the album (please consider paying the $5)
