According to a press release issued by the publicist of Starbucks, the rumor has been officially confirmed: Paul McCartney has indeed inked a record deal with the java giant's new imprint, Hear Music. His new album (no title or details yet) will be released this summer, and will be sold at all Starbucks locations as well as conventional music retailers. In McCartney's own run-on words: "It's a new world now and people are thinking of new ways to reach the people and for me that's always been my aim." Macca-iato, anyone?
