Dancehall Is Dead
Price 23.19 - 31.26 USD
2010 street mix from the Rap superstar along with MC/beatmaker Insight. To make the challenge more appealing, Insight"s revisited Nas work mixing up his love for Boom Bap and Reggae music. An experience he considers as a full art: "This is all about facing a song that has been created already. If you take it as a model there"s nothing exciting and challenging left. You need to get away from the original track as much as you possibly can. The only restriction and constant is the accapella and you have to create a whole new world around this". Insight buckled down and got on with recycling Nas best songs and yet managed to make new classics from the original ones "I worked on those tracks as a whole, just like they were part of a same record so they can sound like a homogeneous album all together". The title Dancehall Is Dead is in reference to Nas eighth album Hip Hop Is Dead and definitely proves once again that Insight is a real creative talent.
