Shout out to Rizoh over at The Rap Up for sending some traffic our way over the weekend.
As longtime readers of the site are already aware, I'm a big fan of DJ Swindle. A couple of years ago, he put out perhaps the greatest mash up album ever, Bobb Deep, mashing Bob Marley with Mobb Deep. Earlier this year, he followed it up with 80 Cent, blending classic 80's beats with vocals from 50 Cent.
Now DJ Swindle has released his latest mash up album for free download, EM-J: Marshall Meets Michael. This is easily the best Eminem-related project to come out in the past couple of years. Here is my favorite song from Em-J:
Eminem and Michael Jackson -- Lose Yourself / Beat It (direct link to mp3 on swindleentertainment.com)
You can download the rest of the album here. View the myspace page for the Em-J project here.
Other stuff:
The first of what I imagine will be several diss tracks from the Dipset weed carriers, J.R. Writer goes at Jay-Z. Pretty weak.
Even weaker: Tony Yayo goes at The Game and Jim Jones. During the interview, Yayo says he's gotten offers to be in movies. I applaud the film industry for trying to get him out of the music business.
Crunchy Black left Three Six Mafia to do this? Probably not the best move for his career.
The Fader has a nice article on J Dilla. Talib Kweli, Tre from Pharcyde, Just Blaze and a few others discuss Jay Dee's work.
