After tomorrow I'm sure the entire internet is gonna be buzzing with Santogold and Diplo's Top Ranking Mixtape. Summerstage in NYC they will be onsale and I will get my copy, as should everyone going.
(if anyone asks me to take these down, I will)
Here are 2 tracks from it that I thought were amazing:
Santogold and Diplo - Guns Of Brooklyn
"Guns of Brooklyn" is already all over the interweb. This song is so mellow, you can't help but love it. Right after I got it I played it on repeat for ten minutes. Normally with Diplo I would have expected a crazy fast beat, but I like this change of pace.
Gorilla Zoe, Santogold, and M.I.A. - Get It Up (Radioclit Remix)
The first two minutes of this song I'm not sure about. I love rap, and I love rap even more over strange beats that you wouldn't hear everyday. But Gorilla Zoe (who I have never heard of) just does not seem to fit in this song. After listening to it all the way through, I usually skip to Santogold's part.
That being said, usually I can't get enough of Santogold, but this is one of my least favorite songs she is in. For me, M.I.A. rules this song. "Get it up, you can get it up!" Then again, her tracks are always hot.

I listened to it a lot, and I do like it now. I realized why it didn't seem to fit in though, its a sample. That rap wasn't made for that song, I couldn't put that together.
This cd is banging.
