kinda related to the whole Britney/nsync/backstreet boys thing....
DJ Z-Trip made a surprise guest appearance at the Plant Bar last night
here in nyc... it was pretty funny 'cause he dropped in the acapella
version of Cristina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle" over a really dope
hip-hop beat. I couldn't stop laughing. that guy's really good,
definitely try and catch him if he's in your area. he was mixing rock,
reggae, drum and bass, pop, funk and anything else, but still keeping
the hip-hop groove.
