Did someone say that mashups were played out? Sure, by the thirtieth time someone released a half-assed Hot Hot Heat vs. Missy Elliot mix the trend was getting old, but like turntablism back in the ’90s, now that the hype’s worn off the people who raise it to an art can come to the forefront. Mashups will never die, especially when they’re hot like this: The Hood Internet, the project of a couple of Chicagoan malcontents, bringing you joints like R. Kelly vs. Broken Social Scene, Li’l Wayne vs. Modest Mouse, and Clipse vs. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. I can guarantee, without a shadow of a doubt, that listening to these will make your life better:
