Cancer for Cure: El-P - "Rush Over BKLYN" (Mr. Dibbs Initiative)
Released in conjunction with the like-minded people over @ Legitmix, "Rush Over BKLYN" is, for all intensive purposes, an artistic re-imagination of El-P's own recently-released track, "Drones Over BKLYN." Effectively assembled and released with Legtmix's * state-of-the-art fair use-age [sampling] technologies, the remixed track successfully melds fun, charity, Hip-Hop/Rock "N" Roll, and experimentation. The pair of tracks will reportedly appear on El Producto's upcoming album, Cancer for Cure (Fat Possum).
All proceeds from "Rush Over BKLYN"'s sale(s) will be donated towards Mr. Dibbs' ever-growing hospital bills... as the Cincinnati DJ is currently laid up, undergoing liver treatment. Money can also be donated directly to his wife, Kristin Rose @ hellkitchen@netzero.com or via snail mail: Brad Forste 4830 Poplar St. Cincinnati, OH 45212.
