KJ-52 Remixed


Remixed is a remix album by KJ-52, featuring a reggaeton mix of Behind the Musiks "Jesus", "47 Emcees " which reimagines the originally beatbox-driven track with multiple layered beats, each corresponding to the verse's genre; East Coast, West Coast, old school, and Dirty South, and an angst-driven, Linkin Park-inspired nu metal remix of hit "Are You Real?" featuring an emo rock hook provided by Falling Up's Jessy Ribordy. Unlike most rap remix albums, the songs' lyrics are also reimagined here with at least first verse of each track rewritten.
"Plain White Rapper ", which was featured in Hip Hope Hits 2007, was reportedly intended to be a collaborative effort between KJ-52 and John Reuben.
The album won the 2007 Dove Award for "Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year".
