Sound Advice (Biggie Smalls X Gnarls Barkley) = The Gnotorious Gnarls Biggie.

Published Jul 24 2006, 05:21 PM by webteam

We're gonna save the meta-meta implications for people with too much bullshit-waxing time on their hands, but we wanted to alert this to you before it gets taken down, because apparently the 11-song remix project has been pulled from MySpace repeatedly: somebody pulled a Danger Mouse on Danger Mouse.

Yep, a self-described "DJ unit" called Sound Advice remixed Biggie Smalls with Gnarls Barkley and ended up with The Gnotorious Gnarls Biggie. In the Internerdy age, pastiche passes for genius -- or at least tons of blog posts and millions of hits -- and so this is likely to blow up overnight. We can't co-sign all the 11 songs, because on first listen, we're really not feeling "Necromancing Thugs" and "Just a Party and Bullshit" is terribly iffy. But "Can I Get With Ya Crazy Butt"? Okay, that's awesome. "Gone, Biggie, Gone" is conceptually sweet, even if we're not sure the remix really works. And "Give Me That Online Loot"? The most honest words we've heard from the Internet this month.
