Just spotted this via the homie Fred Hart (known for his original artwork for each Kanye West song on 808s) and the post on the KanyeLive message boards - a dope, unofficial mixtape project that captures many of Kanye's classics mixed with the original samples that inspired their production. For example, the mix for "Drive Slow" contains the primary vocals and production of the original, mixed and blended with a verse from 2Pac's "Shorty Wanna Be A Thug" - sampled in the production of "Drive Slow".
This is simply a must-download for any Kanye West fan - a near-flawless mix that truly evokes a musical experience. Your love for the classics will likely become reinvigorated with the brilliantly incorporated samples in each Kanye favorite. The bonus tracks 2 boot are nothin' 2 sleep on as well, featuring the likes of Lupe Fiasco and Fabolous. My 2 favorites: "Roses" and the "Diamonds Musical". My favorite bonus cut: Michael Jackson & Fabolous "Can't Help It" - Fabolous' "Baby" is an underrated jam. Big ups go 2 Stanley Logan - the producer behind the mixes. More info below; download above! Enjoy!
