They first met in 1990 through Blur&rsquo;s Graham Cox, who adored Hewlett&rsquo;s drawings, for an interview published in the magazine Deadline. Hewlett thought Albarn was a wanker. And the fact that Hewlett at the time was dating Cox&rsquo;s ex-girlfriend, Jane Oliver of Elastica further complicated matters. In spite of all that Albarn and Hewlett became flatmates in London in 1997. Hewlett eventually broke up with Jane around the same time as Albarn split from Elastica&rsquo;s singer Justine. This concordance brought them together, artistic creativity being the best cure for a broken heart.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\n                <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n                <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Live in conversation with 2D &amp; Murdoc from Gorillaz.\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-OPFbjEVXic?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><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n                <\/div><\/figure>\n                <p><strong><span class=\"fs-add-2\">2.

The (hidden) influence of MTV<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Like Residents and Daft Punk, Gorillaz&rsquo;s big intuition has been to hide behind invented characters at a time when pop stars&rsquo; faces (and bodies) are being&nbsp;constantly&nbsp;scrutinised. The idea came about while the two flatmates watched MTV. Hewlett suddenly realised that watching MTV for too long could drive you crazy because none of the bands are really that interesting visually. Hence the desire to stand out as a virtual band, existing only through animation. To begin with Albarn and Hewlett concealed the fact that it was them behind the project. The first musicians in Gorillaz, Albarn, Del the Funky Homosapien, Dan the Automator and Kid Koala hid behind the invented band members called 2D, Murdoc Niccals, Russel Hobbs and Noodle, who even gave fake interviews.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\n                <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n                <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Gorillaz - Saturnz Barz (Spirit House)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5qJp6xlKEug?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><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n                <\/div><\/figure>\n                <p><span class=\"fs-add-2\"><strong>4. An overwhelming ambition<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In 2007, just before Gorillaz released their third album, Plastic Beach, Albarn revealed that he wanted to record &ldquo;the biggest pop album ever made&rdquo;. To do so he invited an impressive cast from all genres of music: Snoop Dogg, Lou Reed, Mos Def, Bobby Womack, Mark E. Smith, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon, De La Soul, Little Dragon, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and not forgetting the Lebanese National Orchestra for Oriental Arabic Music. By mixing all sorts of influences, from electronic and rap to rock and reggae, Albarn broke the boundaries in his invention of new hybrid sounds. Visually Hewlett also raised the bar. He worked on a TV series about his characters and revealed that DreamWorks had started producing an animated film that was eventually abandoned because it was deemed too dark for a project costing millions of dollars.<\/p>\r\n\n                    <figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a32669d23b9c&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a32669d23b9c\" class=\"wp-block-image size-medium-large wp-lightbox-container\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gorillaz_nouvel_album_grace_jones_benjamin_clementine_de_la_soul-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1568\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>\n                    <figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Cr\u00e9dit : Gorillaz<\/figcaption>\n                    <\/figure>\n                    \n                    <p><span class=\"fs-add-2\"><strong>5.
