It is no joke when we say the Lettuce crew is on straight fire right now…and have been for about twenty years. These legends have brought a diversity and vigor to the classic funk sound that equally matches their soulful and effortless groove, infused with a mastery of hip-hop inspired beats and feel-good, get down jams. Since their fourth studio album was released, Crush has taken the crew to funky realms we only dream about. We can stop dreaming today though, because Lettuce just dropped the dopest intergalactic music video since ‘Space Odyssey’. The video, dropped exclusively on Billboard today, features an epic space battle through love, funk and Lettuce love heads. Songs featured in the clip include “The Force,” “Trillogy,” “The New Reel,” “Silverdome,” “Elephant Walk” and “The Sun,” the latter two being pre-order bonus tracks not formerly included on Crush. Drummer Adam Deitch, guitarists Adam “Shmeeans” Smirnoff and Eric Krasno, bassist Erick “Jesus” Coomes, keyboardist Neal Evans, saxophonist Ryan Zoidis and trumpet player Eric “Benny” Bloom completely crush it in this seven minute video directed by Jay Brown, totally bringing the interstellar Lettuce Head hero to life in this cartoon inspired saga.
