It actually has nothing to do with Jay-Z, an Atlanta producer Dangermouse (you should check out his new disc with Gemini or however you spell his damn name) did it all on his own. He is being threatned by EMI and alot of websites got togethor on tuesday to have a "Grey Day" in protest of EMI threating to sue everybody. It sounds okay, Jay-Z hasn't made a great album since his first release in 96' and it only hints at the loops that you could come up with by mining the Beatles. I'm sure the album is on one of those file sharing network (I don't have a computer that's how they find you) or you can find it here
http://www.illegal-art.org/audio/grey.htmlThere are about four or five remixes of the entire album: The Brown Album, the White Album, Paul Nice did one that is supposed to have used all old soul and funk samples, I have heard a few remixed with Spinal Tap (that shit is funny) and some cat is doing the Double Black Album with Jay -Z vocals and beats from Metallica. shit if cats are worried about EMI, wait until Mr. Ulrich gets the law going.
Talk to you all later. Oh yeah, Matt is there a good time to try and get in touch with you because I would be interested in writing reviews again if you are looking for some folks.
