Gorillaz will reveal Converse Single title on Feb 9th 2012
Murdoc from Damon Albarn's cartoon band Gorillaz has uploaded a broadcast on his official Soundcloud to announce that he will be revealing the title of a Gorillaz collaboration track, with shoe brand Converse on February 9th 2012 - 1 day away!
Listen to the broadcast below:
Apparently the new Gorillaz Converse single will be featuring Andre 3000 from Outkast, an American Hip Hip duo fro Georgia, USA.
Murdoc tweeted a picture a few days ago, which was briefly leaked by Converse on their site (but it's gone now) that showed a picture drawing that was identical to Andre 3000's outfit for a November photoshoot in GQ 2011 (click here to view).
Looks like Gorillaz fans out there wil be getting a smashing hip-hop style/ rap single, perhaps sounding like Clint Eastwood or Feel Good Inc !

Murdoc Niccals unleashes hype for new Gorillaz songs by twitter - 2012
Murdoc Niccals from the virtual band Gorillaz (fronted by Damon Albarn) has made three tweets yesterday afternoon about the fourthcoming Gorillaz converse track. Below is a screenshot from his twitter page:
Gorillaz announced back in November 2011 that they teamed up with shoe brand Converse and will release a new track and a new pair of Gorillaz designed converse shoes, exclusively for this collaboration.
If the new Gorillaz track is as great as the one Graham Coxon did, then it's definitely going to be a great time for all fans out there. It's been a while since they released anything since Plastic Beach, and Damon Albarn has, on many occasions, said how he'd like to make this Gorillaz's last year as a band.
