Yes, you read that right. The English actor will embody his Frankie Pulitzer rap persona again for a full-length collaboration album with East Coast supergroup Czarface. The project has a very straightforward title, <em>Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer<\/em>, and it will be out on Aug. 28.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThe unacquainted don\u2019t have to wait to hear Hardy\u2019s bars, either. The actor-turned-rapper, or maybe it\u2019s actor\/rapper, previewed the LP on Thursday with new single \u201cBrothers Grimm.\u201d Over a Nineties hip-hop beat, East Coast to be exact, Czarface\u2019s Inspectah Deck and Esoteric spit their verses before Hardy, er, Pulitzer comes in. \u201cYou coppin\u2019 lead when I\u2019m dropping it,\u201d he raps, and honestly, the song goes pretty <em>hard<\/em> (sorry).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"CZARFACE Meets Frankie Putlitzer - &quot;Brothers Grimm&quot; (Official Lyric Video)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ssJrk2OJtZA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tWhile it may sound like Hardy is taking a left turn from acting to rapping, real fans know he isn\u2019t new to the rap game, he\u2019s true to it.
