Lil Wayne 90s Rock (Nirvana. Pearl Jam, Radiohead etc) Mashup Released (Top Story)

Lil Wayne 90s Rock (Nirvana. Pearl Jam, Radiohead etc) Mashup Released was a top 10 story this week . Here is the recap: Despite label protest, DJ Alexei has gone ahead with the release of his latest project, Alexei Presents ... Weezy's 90s Ball, Vol. 1, a remix and mashup album that pairs Lil Wayne with 90s rock classics from Nirvana, Radiohead, and other influential acts.

The release, timed to mark Lil Wayne's release from jail, comes after several days of uncertainly that followed when Universal Motown issued a cease and desist letter to block the release. The album is available for free download at 90sBall.com.

On the album, Alexei both reinterprets old Lil Wayne hits and combines the artist's numerous -- and, in some cases, obscure -- feature verses to create new songs. Musically, the album is divided into tracks that retain the rock sensibility of the source material ("A Milli In Bloom," "Zombie Musik") and hip-hop-influenced tracks on which Alexei combines samples of 90s rock with hip-hop drums ("Bring Back That Raspy Sh*t," "Gimme That, Rude Boy"). - more on this story
