The new Gorillaz album Plastic Beach is due in March and to wet our appetites "Stylo" featuring mos Def and Bobby Womack has leaked. If you follow front man Murdoc Niccals on Twitter you would have seem him tweet “A leak! A leak! Plastic Beach has sprung a leak! One of those Russian pirates has put a bullet hole in my island! My single’s leaked! STYLO!” Two other tracks entitled "Electric Shock" and "Broken" have also found their way to the inter-web. Mos joins the gang as animated character “Sun Moon Stars”. Womack knew nothing about the Gorillaz and was initially unsure about the collaboration, however, his daughter liked the Gorillaz and convinced him to do it. Mos Def described "Sweepstakes", the first song he recorded with Gorillaz, as "one of the greatest things that I've ever done".
Following the record's March 9 release, Gorillaz will make a real life appearance at the Coachella music festival on Sunday, April 18 2010.
