J-Star – The Herbalist Mix Pts. 1 & 2

I’ve been a big fan of J-Star’s DJ mixes for a couple of years.  The Herbalist series of mixes are all reggae songs about smoking weed.  So, if you’re into that, J-Star brings the hottness!  The songs are a mix of modern tracks and classic anthems, quite a few of which can be found on volumes 1-3 of the great “Big Blunts” series of compilations on the Tommy Boy label.

You can stream or download J-Star’s Herbalist mixes from the Soundcloud widgets below.  Hint – click the “down arrow” to download the mix.  Also check out J-Star’s Soundcloud account for more great mixes as well his own remixes of reggae classics.

Jay-Z & Wu-Tang Dub Reggae Macro-Mashups!

mcrodub

Chris Macro has cranked out an amazing double-hitter of dub mashups featuring the Wu-Tang Clan and Jay-Z.  He collides the Wu headlong into King Tubby’s best, producing some truly memorable renditions of  “C.R.E.A.M.” and “Shimmy Shimmy Ya.”  Hearing ODB over classic dub is an irie pleasure.   And his combination of the Wailers with Jay-Z produces memorable moments when “Duppy Conqueror” meets “The Blueprint.”  Check out the streams below and then grab the full archive of both albums for your next lime.
