Actor Tom Hardy is set to appear under the name Frankie Pulitzer on a collaborative album with American hip hop group Czarface, due out in August.
Tom Hardy, best known as an actor from films like Venom and Mad Max: Fury Road, turns out to have a serious passion for hip hop as well. Back in 1999 he recorded a mixtape under the pseudonym Tommy No. 1, which leaked years later. Now he is taking the next step in his musical career by releasing a full collaborative album with American underground hip hop collective Czarface.
The album is titled Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer, with Hardy performing under his rap alter ego Frankie Pulitzer. The record drops in August. A lead single titled Brothers Grimm has already been released as a taste of what is to come.
Czarface is a respected collective in the world of underground rap, known for working with a wide variety of artists. For fans of alternative hip hop and anyone who knows Tom Hardy as that one of a kind presence on the big screen, this promises to be a striking and unexpected release.
