The Rolling Stones have recruited Odessa A’zion—star of Marty Supreme, I Love LA, and more—for the first video from new album Foreign Tongues. The “In the Stars” short was directed by Francois Rousselet and features a de-aged version of the band playing a house party alongside A’zion, who dances then licks a deepfaked version of Mick Jagger.
The Stones’ Hackney Diamonds follow-up lands July 10 via Capitol. Paul McCartney, Robert Smith, and Steve Winwood are among the contributors, while Andrew Watt returns to produce. Late Stones’ drummer Charlie Watts also appears on a few tracks carried over from the Hackney sessions. The group began rolling out the record in April, when posters advertising their “Cockroaches” pseudonym appeared in London’s Camden Town. Later, the London Times broke the news that a single, “Rough and Twisted,” would be released under the monicker on April 11 as a white-label vinyl exclusive.
Keith Richards said in a press release, “The Foreign Tongues album has a continuity from Hackney Diamonds and it was great to be working in London again, and to have that London vibe around us. It was a month of concentrated punch. To me, it’s all about the enjoyment of it.”
