We ain’t done yet! I told ya’ll tonight was gonna be huge! These next two are brand new on the scene and I haven’t had a chance to preview them yet. They just emailed them to me this afternoon. I got so much other stuff to do that I just wanted to get this off my plate and let you all decide if they’re good or not.
This first one comes from DJ Perry Levy and it’s called Jamaican Gangster. He’s what he has to say…
DJ Perry Levy here to bring you yet another remix of Jay-Z’s American Gangster only this time it’s backed by the biggest Reggae and Dancehall riddims including Bob Marley and the Wailer’s “Soul Rebel”, King Tubby’s “Bad Tempo and Delly Ranx’s “Gangster’s Prayer”.
Download Jamaican Gangster:
I was really nervous about posting this one without a preview, but oh well. Not much info provided on this one. It’s a mash-up of American Gangster and the rock group U2 and comes from DJ Boun.
I’m a U2 fan, so I hope this one is good. Very original cover art, don’t you think?
U2 was great back in the 80’s and they actually had some pretty good songs in the 90’s. I think they are even still putting out music today!
Anyway, I’m curious to hear how this one sounds. I really appreciate all the comment/feedback I’ve been receiving from everyone. That’s what makes this fun! I really wanna know what people think about these remix albums. So let me know what you guys think about these two!
Oh, and get your votes in before Saturday. I’ll be switching up the poll then!
Edit 12/19: The first link post was missing a couple of songs. DJ Boun stopped by to give us a new link. Thanks man!

This is for the Jamaican Gangster: It’s cool, I think I would have enjoyed it more if the tracks were separate. Out of 5 I give it a 3.5 .
Well I heard the first 7 joints on U2 Gangster and it’s….. RAW! I just love the creativity! Great production, great beats, great remix. I’m tired so I gotta call it a day but U2 Gangster is a definate must have, Peace!
Good look on the U2 comments, Fafo. Did they remix the whole thing? Cuz I think the download is only like 25mb
To answer my own question… yeah it’s the full album, but the mp3s are encoded at 64kbps. I’ll have to look for a highly quality version. This ain’t bad. Only for the U2 fans though.
Thanks for the comment fafo…I am planning on releasing the individual Jay-Z remix tracks in the next week and hopefully Kevin will be kind enough to post them up.
Thanks again Kevin for posting the mix…
Sure man, just hit me up
hey, first off, i wanna say thank you so much for uploading my remix album of u2 and jay-z. Ummm i think the link u have is missing “say hello” and the “intro” This link has the complete album. Once again, thank you so much

No prob, thanks for the right link!
thanks for putting my myspace up too! Let me know what you think of it when u get a chance to hear it!
no prob, from the version I heard last night I liked it. But then I’m also a U2 fan. You found the right U2 songs to mix with Jay and it came out pretty well! Can we get a higher quality version though? I don’t know about the new link, but the old one was only 64kbps.
well thanks for the review. And about the quality… it’s cuz i had it on itunes, and well if u right click on the album and covert to mp3 the quality will go way up.
Sorry I couldn’t get back at you in time Kev, been busy round the office.
Oh yeah I’ll be waiting for the individual tracks DJ PERRY, Holla
It sounds like Jay-Z intended for this album to come out. Everything fits perfectly and you can jam to all the songs! 5 out of 5!
Fafo, individual tracks are up…
