Didn't I say I was done with the American Gangster remixes? Well, when my dude Zilla Rocca came through with his take on Blue Magic, I had to put it up:
Zilla and Jigga - Blue Magic (Beat Garden remix)
I'm still not feeling Pharrell's falsetto on the hook, but Zilla's remix serves as a significant upgrade over the original Neptunes beat. While I was over at his MySpace page grabbing the above photo of Zilla with the ill Green Lantern jacket, I saw he had a new freestyle up on the page. The highlight comes at the end, when he calls out all of the "childish" MCs out there with their half-assed karaoke performances. Peep:
Zilla Rocca - Hit 'Em Freestyle
Zilla and the rest of the Beat Garden massive have a new mixtape about to drop, details on that coming soon. In the meantime, stop by his myspace page to hear more.
One more cut for today, from DJ Excel. This is a Bmore club remix of East Flatbush Project's classic Tried By 12. I know most of you don't get down with the club tracks, but I think we can all make an exception for this beat:
