If rock music isn’t your thing, this episode probably isn’t either — and that’s fine. We’ve got 176 others waiting for you.
But if you live for great records, bold ideas, and the kind of genre-bending that Danger Mouse mastered and the legendary DJ Spinbad (R.I.P.) made feel effortless, you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.
Big Pun over Journey.
Biggie over Pink Floyd.
Scarface over The Eagles.
A Tribe Called Quest over Jimi Hendrix.
KRS-One over Oasis.
Nas over Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Slick Rick over Nirvana.
Dr. Dre over Phil Collins.
Crooklyn Dodgers over Stone Temple Pilots.
Organized Konfusion over Blue Oyster Cult.
N.W.A. over The Mamas & The Papas.
These mash-ups weren’t on your Take It Personal bingo card — and that’s the point. Expect the unexpected.
This episode delivers two heavy-duty mixes pulling from Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, The Who, Rush, Mobb Deep, Wu-Tang Clan, Redman, Beastie Boys, RUN-DMC, Public Enemy, and more. At the break, we crack it open with some listener Q&A, then push things forward in Mix 2 by jumping ahead and hitting you with modern rock classics.
So yeah — this one might be sitting under your Christmas tree right now. But make no mistake: it’s destined for that Take It Personal shelf.
