(Gibson) Epiphone Casino-wielding guitar hero Gary Clark Jr. is collaborating with rapper Nas on music for ESPN's coverage of the 2012 NFL Draft. Rolling Stone reports that the two artists will be tweaking some of their existing material (including Clark's "Bright Lights") to suit the occasion.
The reworked versions will be used as the broadcast goes in and out of commercials and will find parallels between the music and the drafts – i.e. Clark's lyric "you gonna know my name by the end of the night." The draft coverage begins at 8 p.m. on April 26. more on this story
