Interestingly rolled out as a stream (rather than a purchasable LP), the project looks to be the fruit of the “deal” Weezy announced he made with Jigga last month.

And while there’s no one yet on the long-awaited arrival of ‘The Carter V,’ Wayne’s newest collection of songs is already generating bountiful buzz.

After a brief rest on the bench, Cover Star returns this week with British outfit Brick City, who tackle Janet Jackson‘s seductive comeback cut ‘No Sleeep’

How did they fare? Hit ‘PLAY’ below to find out [cover commences at 0.48 mark]

While it was telling at points that the group had – per their own admission – just learnt the track, they still turned in a commendable rendition.

Their harmony driven delivery served up a fresh take on the simply sung song and actually has us salivating at the prospect of Janet garnishing with similar sounding adlibs when performing it live.

Kudos!
