Jay-Z and Linkin Park come together in 'Ultimate Mash-Ups'

Submitted by: kirkland on Wednesday November 10th, 2004 at 12:34 PM EST

The mash-up, a favorite pastime among hackers and online music traders, is going legit.

A new series, MTV Ultimate Mash-Ups, hopes to capitalize on the craze, in which computer users "mash" together songs to produce surprising new results. The series premiere, tonight at 10:30, features Jay-Z rapping with Linkin Park.

Recorded live at West Hollywood's Roxy Theatre, the artists create some unlikely combinations, such as Jay-Z's cocky Dirt Off Your Shoulder with Linkin Park's rage-filled Lying From You. The show also features footage of the musicians rehearsing in the studio. A combination CD/DVD of the performance will be released Nov. 30.

Like downloading, mash-ups have been popular with music fans but not with the music industry. After DJ Danger Mouse released an album mixing Jay-Z with the Beatles, he received a cease-and-desist order from EMI, which owns the Beatles' recordings.

Still, mash-ups regularly appear online, and San Francisco radio station Live 105 has even begun airing them. One favorite is Faint Britney, which mixes Linkin Park's Faint with Britney Spears' Toxic.

"I don't believe in sectioning off music," Jay-Z said at a screening of the new show. "You'll catch me listening to Sarah McLachlan."

Jay-Z is a terrible at rap, hiphop and anything else that comes out of his mouth, thank god he retired, don't get me wrong he should keep producing and anything else he does to get money but should just keep doing the things that don't involve his mouth.
