Battle of Beats: Remix-a-Jigga III

Latest Articles

Another great soul has passed away. It's been reported that legendary musician was found dead at his home in Memphis today. The composer most known for the theme from Shaft and as the voice of Chef on Comedy Central's animated show South Park is no stranger to hip-hop: his work has been sampled many times over the years. My thoughts go to the Hayes' family in this time of grief.

Battle of Beats: Remix-a-Jigga III

Maybe it was just the "thing" to indulge in; maybe it was a testament to Jay-Z's greatness - it was certainly a big boost to his ego. When Roc-A-Fella released The Black Album's a cappellas, several producers proceeded to match Jay-Z's vocals with their own compositions. The resulting mash-up albums brought their share of controversies in 2004, a collaborative album between Mr. Carter and Linkin Park, and even prompted a shrine-like site, The Jay-Z Construction Set. This is the third in five Battle of Beats that showcases the mash-ups. The song is Dirt Off Your Shoulder. The poll is on your right.
