The Grey Zone

I'm listening to the "Grey Album". A DJ who calls himself Danger Mouse remixed Jay-Z's The Black Album with samples from The Beatles' "White Album."

Some of it is really good, which gives me pause because I dislike what Jay-Z seems to stand for. I find him to be shallow and conceited which does not make him unique, but it does make me disinterested. I have not heard The Black Album, but I suppose I'll have to listen to it now to find out what the record sounds like without The Beatles as a backing band.

Well hopefully, I will have a productive Saturday. I seem to have quite a bit planned for tomorrow, but my Saturday plans have a tendancy to dissolve in a hypnagogic state. If nothing else, I must make a trip to the library.
