Saturday MP3 #7

This week is a mashup of sorts that Matos "linked" to from his CD-R Go! list/mix in the Seattle Weekly, dwelling on the ephemeral nature of music criticism.

It isn't my favorite 2005 recording (that's still Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings' "How Long Do I Have to Wait for You?"), but the Legendary K.O.'s Internet-only "George Bush Doesn't Care About Black People," which runs Kanye West's greatest beat and his public moment across the end goal, is probably the single of the year. It's still relevant, but I'd probably feel better including it if I'd done so a month ago, when it was still freshly up on the Houston rappers' Web page (where you can still find it: www.k-otix.com) instead of, in Net time, ancient history.

As Cousin Cole says about "Foreign Policy," his "Bombs Over Baghdad"/"Killing an Arab" mashup: "You will like this."
