Mixtape Menace: Black Chiney 8.9

Riddle me this: what do you get when you mix blazin' hip-hop beats with the ruggedest vocals out of Jamaican dancehall?


If you answered either "Black Chiney mixes" or "I don't know but it sounds reeeeeeal niiiice" you'd be correct. Mixed by Willy Chin, the deejay/production unit comes out the gate full blast throughout the 80 track compilation. Beat jacks and re-fixes of hits like Shawty Lo's "Dey Know" and Kanye West's (I'm STILL trying to figure the video out!) "Flashing Lights" show how and more importantly WHY Black Chiney is among the greats in dancehall selection. Even the (some might say crass) skits contribute to the madness providing about 30 seconds of rest while bringing in the next part of the mix. DJ's and DVS huggers take note, THIS is a blueprint as to how a mixtape should sound.

Pros: "Very, VERY well mixed." - Old, Rich White People
"Everything exclusive!!!" - Your Local Mixtape DJ That Screams Over Every Song

Cons: "Whey de BLOODCLAT TRACKLISTIN?!?!?!?!!" - An Angry Reggae Fan
