What to expect of girl talk...a guy named Greg who merely mixes music together into a 16 track album. While this may not sound so interesting, I can assure you it is. DJ's usually create boring and uncreative mixes from samples of songs, not really trying to make it catchy to the listener, but rather just make it sound cool. Girl Talk, on the other hand, was able to get me humming and singing snippets of his songs without even realizing it. That, right there, is enough to win me over. He mixes classic songs with new rap songs mainly, with perfection. Who knew that Come On Eileen and The Cranberries could be re written with rapping? The cd needs to be listened to as a whole and flows together perfectly, so I can honestly say I do not know 1 individual track.
The cd does tend to go on a little longer than you want it to at first, but that's just cause there is so much going on. I would like to see mixes with time signatures also. But really, this is a great album for many occasions, and is definetly worth picking up.
8.3/10
