First it was the Grey Album where Danger Mouse mashed up Jay Z’s Black Album with The Beatles’ White Album. Now Mick Boogie and Terry Urban (along with a laundry list of guest producers) have done a new mashup album involving Jay Z, this time with Coldplay. There are 19 tracks on this mixtape and you can download it here.

Props to Faux Fur &Soccer Shirts for the find…

What Would MLS Be Like If Jay-Z Bought In?

Filed under: Interviews, Jay Z, Videos


You know, have a day off, head over to London check up on your boys in pre-season, take a team photo and head back to Cali for a show later in the week.

A bit long, but very insightful.

FCC Gives Jay-Z Thumbs It

Jay-Z Headphones

Looks like Jay-Z isn’t going to have to wait one more second to drop his own headphones after Dr. Dre dropped his Beats by Dre not too long ago.

Motorola’s “Jay-Z” headphones passed the FCC test and will be able to be used with your Bluetooth audio and Bluetooth cell phone  simultaneously.  If you are listening to music and if your phone rings, you can transfer the call to your  headphones and then when finished, press a button and the music will start back up.

Jay Z x Oasis Mashup

Filed under: Jay Z, Music

jayz-oasis

After Jay answered Noel at Glasotonbury, and again on the opening verse of Jockin Jay Z, a mashup was bound to happen. That’s one of the beauties of technology and music these days. Mashups don’t always work for m, but I’m good with this one. It works…I can definitely hear this one getting love at the clubs.

Jay Z Covers Wonderwall at Glastonbury

Filed under: Jay Z, Music

This past weekend Jay Z headlined the infamous Glastonbury Festival in England. There has been a lot of talk about this due to the fact that Noel from Oasis said that a hip hop artist should not be allowed to headline the show.  You know Jay Z couldn’t just let that slide, so with all the swagger that Young Hov has, he got up and covered Wonderwall before killing them with 99 Problems.

After the jump, check out Jay put his own flavor on Estelle’s American Boy.
