“Filmography 2010″ – Thumbs Up
Great mashup of 270 movies from 2010:
All Day Samples – Thumbs Up
Girl Talk released his newest mashup album, All Day, a few weeks ago. Travis McLeskey put together a website, www.alldaysamples.com where he displays the songs currently being sampled visually as you listen. This really helps you appreciate all the detail that Girl Talk puts into his work and demonstrates why he is the best mashup artist around. Here is an interview that McLeskey did about the project.
(I realize that I am super late on this, but I thought I would post it anyway because I hadn’t blogged in a while.)
Kanye West Tweets with The New Yorker are Dope! – Thumbs Up
Last year, hip-hop artist Kanye West made the news for reasons that no one would be proud of. He jumped on stage during the MTV Video Music Awards interrupting Taylor Swift while she was accepting her award for “Best Female Music Video” and uttered those words that will forever be remembered (and mimicked in multiple different ways):
“Yo Taylor…I’m really happy for you and I’mma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time!”
Most recently, Kanye West jumped on another stage to display his rants: Twitter. And, the great thing about it is that Kanye tweets just as you would expect him to talk. Nothing changes. You can follow him at @kanyewest and see for yourself.
Well, with the new Twitter account and the 140 characters of gold that Kanye gives to the world each time he tweets, comedy duo Paul and Storm decided to use that gold and turn it into comedy gold. How did they do that? By taking various Kanye West tweets and using them as captions to a number of The New Yorker comics. You can see a few good ones below or a whole slew of them here. You can also see future ones posted on twitter by following the hashtag #kanyenewyorkertweets.

Thumbs Up – Lion King and other Disney Mashups
The Lion King is by far my favorite Disney movie – it combines such great characters, songs, and stories. Recently, I have found a brand new way to enjoy The Lion King – through mashups by DjDOYOU. There are three of them on his new mixtape including:
- Stuntin’ Like Mufasa (Lil Wayne and Birdman)
- Can You Feel The Best I Ever Had (Drake)
- I’m a Lion King (T.I. and others)
There are also several other Disney mashups from Little Mermaid, Mulan, Jungle Book, and more of your favorite childhood flicks. The mixtape is definitely worth a download. Check out his site to download the Stuntin’ Like Mufasa mixtape for free-ninety-nine: www.djdoyou.com/
Super Mario Bros Crossover – Thumbs Up
I am swamped with work today, but I just had to find a quick second to post about this game that has been going round the internets because it is just that awesome. Play Super Mario Bros. as other classic Nintendo characters like Mega Man or Samus. A whole new take on one of the most classic games of all time. Play the game here.
