Word at Abbey Road is that Macca is currently hard at work on his next, possibly last, album. Working title is Ashes in the Urn. You heard it here first.

No joke, Sir Macca's next project is...third string composer of music for video games.
How many SHiTES will be forcing themselves to claim this is brilliant?

Paul McCartney is having an end-of-life crisis. In the hopes of staying [sic?] relevant, he's decided to play millennial bingo.
This past year he noticed a lot of chirpy ukulele songs on TV commercials, and we were delivered of Fuh You. I'm guessing this video game foray came after he caught James masturbating to World of Warcraft characters.

This was the game that gave us the McCartney CLASSIC Hope For The Future. Unfortunately, the future was full of Trump and Egypt Station, so hoping wasn't such a good strategy after all.

Aaaahhh, that makes more sense. There's some sort of gigantic vinyl box set of all the soundtrack stuff that's got his name attached so I assumed it was new. I'm still playing GTA San Andreas so I've no idea what constitutes a new game...

They're already up to Destiny 2, after releasing a bunch of new missions for the first game year after year. Also, at the time the original Destiny was released, they had hired Peter Dinklage to record narration for the game. Dinklage was basically bored with the task, and recorded his lines in a couple of hours in a monotonous voice, up to the point they preferred to ditch his entire performance and hire a more reliable voice over actor to replace him in the part one year later. I guess that McCartney's involvement came along those lines: big name to bring cachet to the project, but not exactly class A effort by the big name (even if it can be argued that Sir Macca might not be at the top of his game anyway).

When the game came out, Sir Macca did a press tour, and was on the news via satellite link up. Now, I'm not sure what sort of cheap connection they were using, but there was an incredibly long delay making it hilariously awkward.
I couldn't find a clip, so enjoy this instead

Well, that's a relief. Ashes in the Urn is still on then.

Yeah, they got(and still use) Nolan North for Ghost. D2 is now well into its' second year and fifth "season".
Macca tunes nowhere to be found, obvs.

His vocal cords are flapping like a pair of battle ropes

I dunno. I think it sounds pretty much like what you'd expect. A crappy song by a 76 year old once-was who hasn't been significant for around the last 50 years.

Did Kanye lend him his old vocoder? Not even Jeats likes it.

By next week, he will change his mind and find it great. The same thing happened with Fuh You.
