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.”
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.

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

Great use of the censored “beep” sound clip to give the shtick of Sesame Street’s The Count a whole new meaning.

This month, I’m throwing funk into the mashup mix, with Herbie Hancock’s “Chameleon” as the backdrop for yet another Jay-Z A Capella, “Girls, Girls, Girls.”
Check out “Herbie, Herbie, Herbie” — click the image below to listen to the track.
