Gorillaz' collaboration with D-12 is now available online through the Gorillaz website. The track, inspired by the events of September 11th in the U.S., also features former Specials frontman Terry Hall. The song was recorded after the D-12 crew were stranded in the U.K. only two days after the tragic events, and also describes the day's actual events as well as their aftermath. Here's a taste of the lyrics: "Put the knife away, missiles always strike and blaze/So much smoke you can't tell the difference between night and day."

The Walt Disney Company has optioned Tony's Hawk's autobiography Hawk – Occupation: Skateboarder as well as his life rights for a biopic feature. The project aims to be in the vein of a Rocky for youths set against a Fast Times at Ridgemont High backdrop. It will focus on Hawk's life as a teenager during the 1980s, when he was a gawky outcast ridiculed by his peers for his undersized frame and a passion for a sport deemed uncool. Hawk went on to become a pro skateboarder at 14 and remained virtually unmatched in his field until he retired a few years ago at age 32.
