SEPULTURA singer Derrick Green has teamed up with "The Godfather Of Funk" GEORGE CLINTON for a new Blackberry campaign called Blackberry Urban.

Green spoke to Sweden's Metal Shrine about the collaboration recently: "I've already done another commercial, where I'm singing again, because I do sing. (laughs) It's for Blackberry and I did it with George Clinton, the godfather of funk! It's a song that got licensed and maybe a week ago they picked it up, it's like Blackberry Urban, if you look it up on YouTube. It's pretty cool and it was fun to do. Really funky and extremely different from Sepultura. It's a project that I'm working on and the song got picked out. It's the complete opposite of like metal. The concept is very futuristic and about digital and sex in the future and the age that we live in and there's special guests like George Clinton and CEE-LO sings on a song. We're doing a song together and I'm doing falsetto and crazy harmonies. I wanted to do something so extreme that people would never ever believe it! I think I achieved that, but it's done well and taken very seriously. It was a lot of fun because we were laughing a lot during some songs and I've never done anything like that and it's going really well writing the songs. I think it's gonna be such a crazy reaction, whether bad or good and I'm looking forward to it! (laughs)"

Metal Shrine: Is that an album coming out this year?

Green: "Yeah, we're gonna try and release it in August and I think people will be excited about it. I think it's done well and I'm singing my ass off on this. (laughs) Like really doing crazy, crazy stuff and not holding back."

Metal Shrine: How did you hook up with a guy like Cee-Lo?

Green: "The thing is that the guy that I'm working with, Sam, he's a producer and a songwriter and he's friends with all these known people, so he was able to get in touch with them and he's been able to do that in the past with other artists like KANYE WEST and M.I.A.. Different artist that he wanted to have on the album to mix it up. On this I'm primarily singing and these guys are doing like the choruses and stuff like that. He was just able to get all these people."

Metal Shrine: What are you gonna do if this just explodes and becomes a big thing? You're gonna leave Sepultura and go for the funk instead?

Green: "(laughs) God, I don't know! Maybe we'll go on tour together! (laughs) We'll see what happens. I enjoy doing both and they're so radically different and that's what makes it so cool! I don't like to be stuck in one thing. If anything, I'm sure I'll make people laugh or smile or dance and those are all good things!"
