Chuck Brown And Jill Scott Need "Love" On Brown's 'We Got This'

Chuck Brown's 3-disc set 'We Got This, ' out September 21st on Raw Venture, includes "LOVE, " a collaboration with Jill Scott and Marcus Miller, on a disc of five new songs on which Ledisi also appears. The set also includes a live DVD and a live CD.

On "LOVE, " the 74-year-old "Godfather of Go-Go" trades verses about what love is with three-time Grammy winner Scott. Brown's ultra-tight horn section and Miller's bass keep things super-funky.

Brown will join The Roots on September 28, sitting in with them on that night's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

'We Got This' follows the 2007 release of Brown's critically acclaimed studio album 'We're About The Business, ' which gave the Go-Go legend his highest chart and sales debuts to date. The studio material rolls and grooves from the Ledisi-assisted "Funky Stuff" to the supremely funky "Senorita." The live CD/DVD documents Brown and band working their way from Duke Ellington's "It Don't Mean A Thing" to KRS One's "Rappaz R. N. Dainja" to Brown's seminal 1979 hit "Bustin' Loose."
