News: Deltron 3030 To Release New Album In May???

In May 2000, hip hop supergroup Deltron 3030--the trio of Del tha Funkee Homosapien, Kid Koala, and Dan the Automator--released their eponymous rap opera concept album to near-critical acclaim. Now, nine years later, the group is poised to release its follow-up.

The beats and turntable work for Deltron Event II have reportedly been finished since 2007, leaving Del to lay down the lyrics. On April 12, 2009, at the Tuscon date of his "Funkman Tour", tha Funkee Homosapien himself announced that Deltron Event II is set to be released on May 24, 2009.

No word on what label will be releasing this much-awaited disc, although Hieroglyphics Imperium Recordings is a usual suspect. And take this tip with a grain of salt--there has been no official confirmation yet. But wouldn't a new Deltron record make summer great?
