Monthly Mashup Vol. 12 – The Shoot Back Mixtape: I Am Sean Bell

Heywood — Mon, 05 May 2008 22:57:05 +0000

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.”

Blogadilla and TROUBL Media do not promote violence. Together we promote knowledge. The cover artwork embodies the sentiment of the community as does the sound byte at the end of “No Justice, No Peace,” which is included because it is reflective of the frustration many people have expressed with the police department’s conduct, and the state of the justice system in the United States.A big shout out to TROUBL writers RBT & Alwayswrite, who gathered much of the audio used in the mashups.

Monthly Mashup Vol. 11 – John The Revelator Gets Low

Heywood — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 02:21:26 +0000

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.

Monthly Mashup Vol. 10 – Make It Rain Unconditionally

Heywood — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 05:51:57 +0000

Lil Wayne + The Bravery. Make it Rain + Unconditional. The result? You be the judge. My opinion? Indie Electronica Rap ain’t half bad.

Monthly Mashup Vol. 7 – I’ll Still Rock You

Heywood — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 02:53:40 +0000

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.

Monthly Mashup Vol. 6 – Put Your Chocolate Rain Where My Eyes Can See

Heywood — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 04:11:08 +0000

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.

Monthly Mashup Vol. 3 – Summer Love in the Disco Club

Heywood — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 04:18:59 +0000

Pop music: so bad but so good.

In my latest monthly mashup, I try to prove that 2+2 = 5 by mixing two pop songs (The Black Eyed Peas’ “Disco Club” with Justin Timberlake’s “Summer Love”), with the hope that the sum, in fact, is greater than the parts. Also, this is a fitting end to summer, which I’m sad to see go. Enjoy, and free to comment!
