SONG OF THE DAY
First of all, we’re suckers for most anything reggae here at TheBlaaahg corporate headquarters, but when you do a simple little blend of Mos Def with classic reggae anthems, it’s kind of impossible to go wrong.
Better yet, these aren’t your top 10 Marley hits, these are classic rocksteady and roots reggae tracks. I think producer Max Tannone (Jaydiohead mashup) keeps the mindset that, “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it”, altering sounds very minimally, only when they matter the most.
So below, listen to “History Town” which mashes Mos’s “History” (feat. Talib Kweli) with “007 (Shanty Town)” by Desmond Dekker & The Aces. Check and download the whole thing at Max Tannone’s Mos Dub website.
