The Hood Internet, for those not in the know, is a crew who do mash-ups so frigging awesome that they must be heard to be believed. They launched back in March & have been pumping out classic jams on a near daily basis ever since.
Once you’ve heard some of these, you just cannot look back.
And now, in time for the best days of summer, the Hood has released a “best-of” compilation mix-tape for y’all. Mash-ups or no, it is one of the best releases of the year by far. Cyndi Lauper vs. Dizzee, what? The Game layered over Go! Team? Mos Def meets muthafuckin’ Battles?!
It’s all here. And you know you want it.
