American Gangster Acappella

::American Gangster Acappella arrives on December 4.
What, you thought Hov would sit back and chill while Ghost and everyone else dropped albums on his birthday?
Remember when Def Jam released The Black Album acappella? It can be argued that Danger Mouse owes his career to The Grey Album, which combined The Beatles beats with Jay’s vocals. It wasn’t my favorite of the 307 Black Album remixes (I still listen to Kno’s version more than the original Black Album), but it really exposed DM to fans who didn’t know about his work with Jemini.
The next Danger Mouse is probably eating cereal and reading this right now, thinking, “This is it. December 4 can’t come sooner.”

I agree with you on the KNO comment riz. That was the illest black album remix that came out. Became a huge fan of teh Cunninlinguists after hearing that album. Kev Brown’s The Brown album wasn’t that bad either.

Jay-Z - American Gangster (A capella) « 2dopeboyz Says:
[...] That’s right … Jay-Z is releasing an a capella version of American Ganster (ala Black Album). I just hope Dangermouse and KNO get on their grind and pump out remix albums. Those are the only two I listen to out of the 8719825 ones made. Shouts to The Rap Up. [...]
