nasa-feat-tom-waits-kool-keith-spacious-thoughts N.A.S.A. hits us with more tracks from their album The Spirit of Apollo which drops in February. Keeping with their style, they continue to bring big names together across various genres to perform with them. On this track, they get Kool Keith and Tom Waits, those are just two names I never thought I would see listed featured on a song together. For those of you who do not know Tom Waits, he is the folk rock musician who originally recorded and wrote the song "Way Down in A Hole", or as you may know it, the theme to The Wire. Click the break to hear "Whachadoin" ft. Spank Rock, M.I.A., Santogold & Nick Zinner, their video for "Money" ft. David Byrne, Chuck D, etc. and the tracklisting to their album, which has some of the best features I have ever seen on one album. N.A.S.A. ft. Spank Rock, M.I.A., Santogold & Nick Zinner - "Whachadoin" nasa-whachadoin__feat_spank_rock_mia_santogold__nick_zinner N.A.S.A. "Money" feat. David Byrne, Chuck D, Ras Congo, Seu Jorge, & Z-Trip I said it before and I'll say it again, David Byrne, formerly of the Talking Heads, is one of my favorite musicians of all-time. Shepard Fairey, the guy behind the Obama poster and Obey, helped with the video and here are his word on it.

I worked on a video for my friend Sam Spiegel’s(AKA Squeak E Clean) N.A.S.A project. The song is called “Money” and is a collaboration between Sam and David Byrne of The Talking Heads and Chuck D. of Public Enemy. The song is great and the video turned really well. Syd the animator did a great job. Check it out. -Shepard

Finally, the tracklist for Spirit of the Apollo, it is just ridiculous, everyone from Tom Waits, to Meth, to John Frusciante of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, it has it all.  I already love the album because N.A.S.A. shows they have a very eclectic taste in music similar to mine: 1 Intro 2 The People Tree (feat.
