"I did [Rock Phenomenon] for a couple of reasons. First, I wanted to come out with another official 'Phenomenon' mixtape, but I wanted to switch it up this time. I wanted to keep the same quality and work from the first couple of mixtapes, but totally change the genre of music," Vlad told us. "Actually, that's the main reason."





DJ Vlad and DJ Roc Raider have release the third installment of the Rap Phenomenon, but the pair has opted to unite rock-n-roll in Rock Phenomenon, a mixtape that includes Jay-Z/The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dr. Dre/ Korn, MOP/ Jimi Hendrix and many others.


Vlad said while commercial radio and video doesn't always reflect it, Hip-Hop has long been influenced by Rock-n-Roll and Heavy Metal.

“Early hip-hop was very Rock influenced,” Vlad continued. “Take a look at Rick Rubin. He produced all the early LL Cool J, Beastie Boys and some others like Run-DMC and it still works. All the Lil' Jon stuff, the M.O.P. stuff - all that really works with Rock. I heard Lil' Jon is actually working on a rock album with Rick Rubin right now."


The change comes as Vlad’s 2Pac Rap Phenomenon II was named the #3 Hip-Hop album of all time by Chris Rock in a recent edition of Rolling Stone magazine.

Vlad said he and award winning DJ Roc Raider attempted to show people just how well the genres of music actually blend together. To further drive the point home, the mixtape is hosted by Mike Shinoda, front-man for the platinum plus rock band, Linkin Park.

Shinoda himself recently dropped a Hip-Hop side project as a member of the group Fort Minor.

“2Pac Rap Phenomenon II is the biggest moving mixtape of all time, so there was a lot of pressure to live up to the 'Phenomenon' name. Every song on this mixtape is produced to death.”

Pac vs. Lennon? :rolleyes:

btw lookin forward ...

the oac and lennon its acctually real good , but they slowed pac down 2 much. "2Pac Vs. Survivor" is 1 of the best tracks on the mixtape.
 
Is it out yet? Can't wait to hear it!!!! Dj Muggs from Cypress Hill did a mixtape like this recently, rock mashups and it was fuckin sick. They shoulda done a mashup with Tupac and Guns N Roses though, lol.

I haven't really heard anything he's done besides the 2Pac Rap Phenomenon. But I remember you and couple others sayin some negative stuff about him, is he really that bad? I don't know which songs he did on Rap Phenomenon but for the most part I liked the mixtape.


To be honest I'm a bit of a hater when it comes to Vlad and don't really give him a chance.

The Rap phenomenon was OK. I preferred the Biggie 1. But I've picked up other mixtapes which were horrible. He isn't anything special though, and most of the mixes I liked were other peoples.

The "nfo" of the extracted folder, usually has track listed exactly.

i want my files to be listed like

"09-nas-holy_ghosts_(featuring_styles_p.)_(produced_by_d-whoa.mp3"

also the folder name would be great
"VA-Dirty_Harry_And_Nasir_Jones-Living_Legends_Chapter_1-(Bootleg)-2005-WHOA"
