Did some SoundCloud rapper grab the name of the Internet’s favorite special-needs feline? Nope, Lil Bub the cat is hopping on the wave of cat-related releases for a new concept album called Science & Magic.
Let me stop you before you roll your eyes so hard that they get stuck, forcing you to stare at your own brain for the rest of your life (my degree isn’t in science). Andrew W.K. is involved, and he says it’s going to be great.
Here’s W.K. in the press release announcing Science & Magic:
“First of all, it should be understood that this album is a genuine musical experience. Also, it should be understood that this is not a novelty item or a cheap and disillusioning gimmick. This is a bonafide and musically gratifying concept album, which entirely emerged from the soul and spirit of Lil BUB herself. How do I know this? Because BUB told me so…Not only is she the softest creature I have ever encountered, she is also the most musically and compassionately gifted. The songs on this album are her vision.”
You can check out Bub working on the album in a trailer below. Science & Magic drops on December 4 from Joyful Noise Recordings and a quarter of the funds will go toward Lil Bub’s charity fund for special needs pets.
