Well, if you have it's the case that you play SuperHeavy!
SuperHeavy is a rock supergroup consisting of Mick Jagger, Joss Stone, Dave Stewart, Damian Marley, and A. R. Rahman.
Just by reading the names you might understand the power and energy this band can release, but when you listen to the album "SuperHeavy" you might remain thunderstruck by its mixture of sounds and musical styles.
Ranging from Rock, to Reggae, up to Indian ballads this album will certainly thrill you.
The unmistakable Mick Jagger (The Rolling Stones) is perfectly adapted to all the sonorities of the tracks, while Joss Stone brings a touch of Soul music with her tremendous and electrifying voice. Dave Stewart (The Eurythmics) brings its experience on the guitar by making solos and riffs in both rock and reggae styles, never appearing out of the album's concept.
Damian Marley, son of the most famous reggae singer of all times Bob Marley, fills the gap between the reggae rhythm of the band and the rock dresses of their members. Absolutely amazing!
A.R. Rahman, Indian film composer, record producer, musician, singer and philanthropist is capable of bringing into the band the typical ballads of his country, giving the album also an ethnic taste.
In short, this album kicks as*!!

In my opinion this is a perfect example of how some mainstream artists can create a sound that varies from the industry's main one, packing up a product that is perfect from the musical point of view, highly interesting on the experimental side, and soft but definetely conscious on the lyrics.
The album is already out (released in September 16th, 2011).
Here's the first single extracted, titled "Miracle Worker"... What are you waiting for?
PlaySnack it!
