Beyoncé + Jay-Z: The B-Print (Remixed by MICK + Chi Duly) by mickbrooklyn published on 2021-09-23T13:48:33Z Throughout my career, I’ve created (or co-created) some iconic mixtapes. Viva La Hova. Dillagence. Ready To Boom. That mixtape with Adele. And of course, the Summertime series with Jazzy Jeff. But this one here (probably my last ever mixtape, to be honest) is special. The music. The concept. And even the origin story. Recently, I was blasting Jay-Z’s The Blueprint in honor of its 20th anniversary. My fiancé Carolyn was upstairs playing lots of Beyoncé to balance out the incessant amount of Hov playing in my office. At one point, both playlists synced on beat and my mind was blown. My first thought: THIS SHOULD BE AN ALBUM I called up my creative partner Chi Duly (the most talented musician I know) and we fleshed out the idea for this project. I dug up all the classic Blueprint samples (and some other classic Jay sources, as well). Chi acquired a bunch of Beyoncé acapellas. And then we got to work. 23 songs. All songs produced exclusively for this tape. These are not deejay blends. This is original production using the original samples with lots of other fun things added in. (And, of course, some rare and timely Jay-Z verses sprinkled in for good measure). I’m not sure if we will ever get The Carters, Part 2. But until that day… we have something just as good. :) This is the most creative thing I have ever been a part of. This is Beyoncé meets The Blueprint. This is THE B-PRINT. 1 Bonnie 2 Myself 3 Ring 4 Free 5 Take 6 Up 7 Love 8 Drunk 9 Form 10 Reason 11 No 12 Feel 13 Nina 14 Hold 15 Count 16 Her 17 Cry 18 Crazy 19 Lady 20 Emo 21 Summer 22 Flaws 23 Forever Genre R&B & Soul Comment by DJ Camaro Ouch! 2023-12-06T20:23:05Z Comment by randersonw Crazy.
