Instead of just 1 mashup this month, you instead get 7. That’s right, seven. I present to you The Shoot Back Mixtape – a collaboration with troublmedia.com.

Three police officers shot Sean Bell 50 times, killing him on the eve of his wedding night, and wounding his two passengers, later determining that all 3 men were unarmed. From the night of this social atrocity to the not guilty verdict 10 days ago, emotions have been fierce. Sadness. Anger. Frustration. Disgust. Fear.

Download The Shoot Back Mixtape, a collection of voices and speeches that convey the public discontent following the not guilty verdict awarded to the police officers who killed Bell.

Here’s the first track to whet your appetite. In the words of a protester speaking for Sean Bell: “It’s not about what you do today, but what you do tomorrow.” [display_podcast]

This month I mixed together Depeche Mode’s “John The Revelator” with the overplayed but catchy “Get Low” by Flo Rida. The result: John The Revelator Gets Low. Alternate titles included “Flo Rida The Revelator” and “Depeche Does The Limbo.” Enjoy.

In December’s monthly mashup, old meets new once again. Queen’s anthem “We Will Rock You” meets 50 Cent & Akon’s new track, “I’ll Still Kill.” And yes, I did have to pay 50 & Akon extra to get them to wear those wigs. Click the image to listen.

Prepare yourself folks, this is a Blogadilla exclusive.

Based on Timbotron’s inspiration, I’ve crossed Tay Zonday’s YouTube hit Chocolate Rain with one of the classic rap songs of the 1990s: Busta Rhymes’ “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See.” The result? You be the judge.
