Yesterday Terry Urban released this unbelievable mixtape to cellebrate Notorious B.I.G.'s life. The mixtape (which is a mashup with with Lana Del Rey) features 15 quality tracks that I cannot stop listening to. Once you pick up the free download, burn this to a CD because this mixtape does not deserve to be forgotten on your iPod.
I feel that the best description for this music can only come from the artist of this mixtape Here is what Terry Urban has to say:
"In honor of Biggie’s passing 15 years ago on March 9, 1997… I wanted to do a special project. Mick Boogie and I honored the anniversary of his passing with a special project called Unbelievable, which was hosted by Sean “Diddy” Combs and exceded 500k downloads online. But to pay tribute this time, I wanted to do something different. Merge music styles. Bridge audiences together in new ways. So I proudly present to you along with the homies from Dope Couture… Lana Del Rey and Notorious Big… Born Ready To Die. The music from Lana’s Born To Die… remixed and resampled. The lyrics from Biggie’s Ready To Die… still timeless after all these years. It’s a perfect marriage… dark and mysterious… soulful and gritty. Lana told Vogue Magazine that Biggie was one of her biggest musical influences… and now… he is her musical collaborator."
