American Zeppelin – DJ Doc Rok [Jay-Z/Led Zeppelin Mash-Up]

11 01 2008

“Roc Boys (And the winner is…)” [Whole Lotta Love]

“American Gangster” [Immigrant Song]

Genius. That’s all I can really say about this mixtape. First we were spoiled by the American Gangster album that Jay-Z made to collabo with the Denzel Washington film (which rumors had it Jay-Z pushed for the lead role but ended up just making the album instead). If that album wasn’t enough, DJ Doc Rok took it one step further and mashed all of the songs on the album with various Led Zeppelin songs (Brilliant!). Once this mixtape hit the web, it blew up instantly. This whole album is a must have for any Jay-Z, Zeppelin, or fan of music in general. The way all of the songs blend together is perfected in every way. Major props to Jay-Z but most of all to DJ Doc Rok for being able to first think of something this crazy and then actually produce it. Go out and get this album however you can, if you need help getting a copy just send me a message and we can work something out.

I was wondering how to get a copy of this mixtape, big fan of Led Zepplin and a semi-fan of Jay-Z, mainly his older work, still haven’t heard American Gangster. I’m happy to buy but prefer to DL a copy to listen then buy if I like it.

Cheers!
