Looking for something new, and yet; old? The respectfully dubbed 'Godfather of Rap', Gil Scott-Heron drops a brand new album on February 9th, 2010 for XL Recordings entitled "I'm New Here". Scott-Heron, who is a well-known American poet and songwriter has been composing material since the 60s and 70s and although missing from the music scene for some time, he is already garnering rave reviews for his latest release which is set to gather a large audience once again as his first release in over thirteen years. While we keep a steady ear out for Gil's latest single we're going to let you decide what will make you pick up his album this year; will it be his words, or the beats?
