Martin George has blessed us with this amazing mash-up of hip-hop legends with the sounds of the Beatles. I believe this is a commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the Beatles british invasion. The Mop-Tops from across the pond have been the fodder for samplers for some time now. I think we all remember Dangermouse pushing the envelope with Jay-Z’s grey album “Mash-up” years ago. This takes things a step further by reworking the Beatles incredible catalog to fit some of hip-hops greatest artists. The result is this epic download that you all should have…..ENJOY!
