That neurotransmitter you’re feeling is the activation of a new supergroup bridging the worlds of rap, rock, jazz, folk, and more. As Brooklyn Vegan points out, in an interview with The Crate 808 Hip Hop Podcast, lead Roots rapper Black Thought revealed the existence of Dopamine, a new project involving Elvis Costello, who once recorded a whole album with the Roots. Also on board are legendary hip-hop producer DJ Premier, Americana overlord T-Bone Burnett, roots rocker (not Roots rocker) Nathaniel Rateliff, and jazz icon Cassandra Wilson. | That neurotransmitter you’re feeling is the activation of a new supergroup bridging the worlds of rap, rock, jazz, folk, and more.
