Honestly, i've listened to many a mashups, but this is literally close to brilliant. It may just be the drugs im on, but i am speaking from a pure place. It found new angles in jay-z songs, and placed the most beautiful parts of beatles songs (usually guitar riffs) into a song....the mixing is fucking brilliant...i regretted not listening to this 3 years ago wen i hear dabout it...togehter these songs have so much meaning, you see things in them that u never found to be particularly beautiful and signifcant...go buy it, do w/e, get it...i recommned dec 4th (a song i never really liked in the first place, but love now), justify my thug, and dirt off your shoulder....oh and get the constants are changing by boards of canada..greatest song.

Great, though not quite on the level of The Black Album and The White Album on their own.
Colm M gave it a9:
this album is teh bling!
Chris W gave it a10:
Absolutely a work of art. This album is great from beginning to end. Mixing 2 legends of their own genres into one unforgetable album. It is a crime that it was not distributed nationally. EMI should have realized the art that was made instead of stopping it.
Kirolos I gave it a10:
Its brilliant. Period.
Dmitriy gave it a1:
I love Gnarls Barkley, but I don't know what the hell Danger Mouse was thinking here. He took the greatest album of all time and mixed it with Jay Z's garbage. It's not an original concept and it doesn't work.
