If you have been going to any music news sites you have probably heard the name Jaydiohead around as of late.Well it is the mash up project of Minty Fresh Beats a DJ from NYC who decided to mash up tracks from Jay-Z and Radiohead. The project has been getting an overall positive response from most people. Publications like pitchfork, and stereogum don’t like it but who would have expected them to?? The mashup does work well for most of the album. A few times Radiohead’s music really complimented Jay-Z’s raps, sometimes it was scary.
Luis from PMA showed me about this project on Sunday and asked me to review it as one of his guest contributers. So look out for that soon too. In the meantime check out two of the tracks from Jaydiohed:
[mp3] : Jaydiohead – No Karma
