"why don't we mash-up in the road?"
this really perks the grad student in me: DJ Danger Mouse has just completed The Grey Album. you've heard (of) the Kev Brown Brown Album and Kardinal Offishall's Black Jays (get it? he's from toronto, home of the blue jays!). maybe you copped DJ Lt. Dan's Black Album Remixes, wherein he retrofits jay's prequel-ish verses with pre-reasonable doubt beats. and you probably avoided KNO of the Cunninlynguist's white album (so named because I'm assuming KNO is of the lighter hue?). what, you might ask, is the grey album? jay's verses + beats made exclusively from the beatles' white album. what will they think of next? this could be terrible, but then again danger mouse's last few mash-up gambles (suzanne vega + 50 cent = fun!) were at least interesting. and would you really prefer to hear Just Blaze re-rigging the Ugly Duckling album?
