“Hello all. So… we are back again. This time, with a special website devoted just to this really exciting project. Me and Terry got together and decided to do a project honoring two of our favorite musical forces… Jay-Z and Coldplay.
Jay-Z is easily considered one of the best emcees of all time, and our personal fave. And Coldplay is one of the best rock bands of all time… this generation’s U2. Definitely the latest group following in the lineage of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, The Who, The Police, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, and Radiohead.
It’s no secret Shawn Carter and Chris Martin have been friends and collaborators in recent years, most recently on Jay’s “Beach Chair” and Kanye West’s “Homecoming.” But it was their first actual Coldplay collabo… the recently released “Lost!” remix that inspired this project to come to fruition.
In addition to self-producing a few tracks ourselves, we reached out to some of our favorite producers in the game… from Jay-Z’s collaborator 9th Wonder, The Kickdrums (50 Cent, TI) and Cookin’ Soul (The Game, Dipset) to up and comers like 6th Sense, nVMe and Garbs Infinite.
After assigning all the producers samples and snippets that we felt fit their musical talents, we began the process of assembling as many Jay-Z vocal tracks as we could find. As the submissions came back, one by one, we decided which Jay-Z verse would fit this particular interpretation of Coldplay’s sounds.
As we began piecing together the correct verses to match the correct beats, it became clear how truly amazing this project really is. This is what real music is supposed to sound like. The lyrical elegance of Shawn Carter, the vocal magic of Chris Martin, the finely tuned instruments of Coldplay, the creative visions by our team of producers, and lastly, our analysis of which Jay verse best fit each track.
If you love Jay-Z and you’re not into Coldplay, this is for you. If you love Coldplay, but don’t mess with hip-hop, this is for you. If you love all good music, this is definitely for you.
We hope this project bridges the gap between genres, fans, and generations. And if you haven’t…make sure you BUY the real Jay-Z and Coldplay music we remixed on this project. Support quality artists.”
