Music You'd Better Listen To - Notorious B.I.G. & Frank Sinatra

MYBLT is a daily collection of songs you should be listening to.

It's also a series of short essays written as Aidan listens to the songs he's posting.

It may also be other things related to music you'd better listen to. More on that later.

You'd better be listening by now.

MYBLT is one of Aidan's many blogs.

If your song is on here and you want it taken down, email me and I'll take it off straight away.

In the meantime, I'll be respectful and link to a couple of your sites.

Okay, so those of you who know me know that I’m a sucker for a good mashup. And, while this isn’t nearly the best produced mashup I’ve ever heard (its core is definitely too short, for one), I was thoroughly impressed when I just listened to it for the first time.

My buddy Max at work turned me on to the Blue Eyes Meets Bed-Stuy album today at work, and I can’t wait to listen to the whole thing tomorrow. This track was just too enticing to leave alone for tonight. And now that I listened to it… well, I’m glad I gave in.

Anything that combines my love of Biggie and Sinatra is great by me.

Hell, this city’s why I first started listening to Sinatra — I picked up this Greatest Hits vinyl for a buck or two at the inaugural Pitchfork Fest. Thank you, Chicago!
