Welkshake

Finally, up now is the second song. It's one of the first mashups I ever downloaded (back in the middle of 2004) and I don't know if I'd say it's one of the best, but it is one of the most unique given the two artists that were combined.

Back in that era, the Kelis song Milkshake was quite over, and much to my consternation, as I thought it was a terrible song. Suddenly, on a messageboard I found a mashup of it done by a guy who I only found out a few days ago was a dude named Dizzy Bull, and he's not even a mashup artist.

What he did was take the vocals from the Kelis song and set it to a random tune from… Lawrence Welk? Yes, the artist who had on a TV show for years that your parents/grandparents watched and whose music is in essence the antithesis of hip-hop/rap. Anyway, the song is called, simply enough, Welkshake, and here's a direct download:

I'll be back on Wednesday night-this time it WILL be up at that time-with a new song.
