I forgot to do this post this morning and I am waiting until now to do it because I was watching WWE. Yes, the World Wrestling Entertainment show. The show tonight was interesting because half of the wrestlers are stuck in the British Isles because of the volcanic ash clouds. Then they have these guest hosts that promote movies or music or whatever they have coming out in the next day or two. Tonight's host was MacGruber. Yes, they are releasing a movie based on all the MacGruber skits from Saturday Night Live. I was laughing pretty hard at their antics. Strangely I want to see the movie. Anyway here are the mash-ups.
This one combines some "Da Funk" by Daft Punk with "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. I really like this one because it mixes so well that you can hardly tell that it is a different song that Freddie Mercury is singing over. Maybe I am just biased since I am a Daft Punk fan. I was so devoted to that group that I tried to buy one of their helmets or at least try to make one similar to it because $65,000 was a tad pricey for a helmet.
This mash-up features "My Humps" by Black Eyed and "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga. This one is really good too. I think I picked out some winners this week. Honestly this is probably the best featuring Black Eyed Peas and I would say the same about Lady Gaga but I enjoy the one I posted months ago that was a mash-up of LAdy Gaga's version of Poker Face along with Eric Cartman's and Christopher Walken's.
This one some people would consider an oldie. It features "Wild Thing" by Tone Loc and "Can't Get You Out of My Head" by Kylie Minogue. I wouldn't consider "Wild Thing" an oldie but I heard it on Madison's home of the oldies the other day while driving around Amish country. I felt so dirty listening to that with all the Amlets walking the side of the road.
OK here are two songs that aren't mash-ups but are great rap songs.
Blackalicious is a duo of Dj Chief Xcel and rapper Gift of Gab. I love what they can do. Gift of Gab certainly has that. It's not often that I come away from listening to this style of music having learned something but then what do you expect from indie hiphop. Too bad I couldn't find any Har Mar Superstar. I think next week I'll have to give you some Brother Ali and Atmosphere.
Sadly, it was true.
Coon Valley isn't that bad...I have so many Coon Valley party stories...for another day.
Just like this post...good luck and good night.
