This feels like the kind of topic that is bound spark some debate. Bronx, NY DJ Rob Dinero recently generated a couple of mashup tracks that feature instrumentals from Watch The Throne paired with choice verses from rap legends The Notorious B.I.G. and 2Pac. Looking back over the epic album and subsequent tour that Jay-Z and Kanye West embarked on last year, it seems logical that people would speculate about what Biggie and Pac might be doing in music if they were still alive today. While these aren’t new beats or unreleased lyrics from either rapper, Dinero’s Watching OVER The Throne concept is one that does shed some light on what it might have sounded like to have these two juggernauts going in over some K. West beats.
Though the idea of WoTT may not seem all that groundbreaking, the process in which Dinero crafted the tracks kind of was. It’s been said that there are no official WTT instrumentals available and as such he had to recreate every single beat in order to produce the project. That shit cray.
According to GlobalGrind.com, this is a complete concept album in the making, so we may see WoTT expand from just two tunes into a full disc. Time will tell. So are you guys feeling this or should the former kings just be left to rest?
THIS IS SICK! Kudos to this blog and the creator of that excellent mashup.
why is the second one edited?
@ Jake – not sure, that’s how it came from Dinero’s site.
Otis would be decent if the acapellas were cleaner…
a kanye and Jigga album was cool but a pac and biggie album would have been EPIC. The mix is hot
Accapellas need to be cleaner, this could be done better
Everyones saying that it needs to be cleaner but this is basically the teasers…hopefully the whole album will be more on point.
Love the idea, however this sounds a bit weak to me…
