Got a few more remixes coming through. Thanks to Jordan from Thick Magazine who hooked me up with these first two!
Round 98
I think I got a new favorite right here!! How many time’s have I said that? But for real, this whole album is smooth! You all are really gonna like these remixes.
It’s called The Resident Remixes and is produced by Saint (out of Long Island, NY) and Muneshine (from Ontario, Canada).
I’ve never heard of these guys before, but they really brought back the essence of 90s hip hop. This version give American Gangster more of a throwback vintage Jay-Z style of production.
It’s hard to pick my favorite tracks off this, cuz they’re all so good.
Go ahead and download this one for sure… you will not be disappointed.
Round 97
I was wondering if someone would mix Jay with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Well someone did… this is American Chili Gangster, produced by HANDCANCEL. I don’t know much on this dude as his MySpace is kind of bare, but if you’re looking for a funky American Gangser… this is it.
Even though I’m hip hop, I still listen to other types of music on occasion. I grew up on the Chili Peppers, so I’m very familiar with the samples used here. In high school I played trumpet in a funk/ska band for a little while. We did Chili Peppers and Primus covers. So this mix brought me back. Blood Sugar Sex Magic is on my iPod today!
So don’t sleep on this one… it’s pretty good as well.

Round 96
This next one is called American ThugBoss and is from Darkness. I haven’t been able to download this one yet, so I can’t tell you how it is. Dude has it up over at his web site, but I think he’s been having problems with his link. So if you all wanna go over and check it out, head to his web site and see if you can download it. It kept timing out on me, but I wanted to post this before the week is up.
Ok, I was finally able to download and listen to this one and I’m glad I did! It’s nothing like I was expecting. Initially when I read “ThugBoss”, I was expecting some real hard hitting beats. You know, the kind that make your ears bleed.
Well, this joint is nothing like that. It is super soulful! Very solid production right here! This is one to get, if you haven’t already. Good job Darkness! BTW, did you get that name from the Dave Chappelle skit? LOL “Darkness!” “I’m Rick James…”

Goddamn! Shit starts off dope [Resident Remixes, Saint & Muneshine] Fuck, lmao…got me vibin’…really does make me reminisce…Superb album!!!
Okay, I was vibin’..but tracks 4 & 10 won’t download..I tried twice…>={
You talkin about the ThugBoss? Yeah I gave up on it.
nah, nah…the Resident Remixes
What do you mean tracks 4 & 10 won’t download? They’re all in one zip.
I download the .zip file…then I try to play #’s 4 & 10, they don’t play…I try to copy the files to another folder, it says something about the system can’t recognize it…never seen that particular error b4…I try a handful of times now..oh well…it is what it is
Weird, I didn’t have a problem. Maybe try unzipping it again if you still have the zip file or download again.
Yeah, I saved the zip, actually…still does it though…thanks to you & Jordan though…I still gotta peep the Chili Peppers…tell me, did he flip “Californication”?
The Resident Remixes has the best version of Fallin, can’t stop listening to it!
The link to “American Gangster” is fixed now. Its definitely worth downloading. Solid production and has a nice feel. Give it another try
^^^I was wonderin’ about it as well…good looks BRASE.
I’m coppin’ it…I already listened to it on the site…it’s very dope!
Thanks BRASE… I’ll check it out tonight!
