WHAT'S THE DEAL? Music industry's answer to Who Framed Roger Rabbit? in laid-back second album non-shock.

TO BE HONEST? That Damon Albarn is a cheeky bugger. Hides his best musical ideas from Blur and gets rich via cartoon project with Tank Girl scribe. Noticeably better than anything Blur have done since, um, 'Definitely Maybe', which we liked a lot (that was Oasis, you berk - proofreader).

DESCRIBE AS: Dark, slightly spooky, mainstream hip-hop.

BEST TRACK: 'Kids With Guns'.
