DOWNLOAD: Alexander - "Truth" (featuring RZA)
DOWNLOAD: Alexander - "Truth" (album version)

Alexander Ebert's solo disc Alexander came out this past March (Vagrant). The song "Truth" was released as an advance single late last year and Pitchfork described the song as an "unlikely hit waiting in the wings, with Ebert whistling around a staggering beat and chalky rhyming that suggest Jason Mraz dazed on Dilaudid. It's sort of perfect." Alexander recently hooked up with Wu-Tang Clan's RZA who remixed "Truth" and contributed a verse to the song. As unlikely as this pairing sounds on the surface, the results are strong (free download link posted above).

For anyone who hasn't yet picked up Alexander, iTunes has the download on sale for $6.99 (click through on the album cover).
