Hear Ghostface Killah & Wu-Tang Gems Over Classic Breakbeats On A Brilliant Mash-Up Tape

Skillz Beats Flips Ghostface Killah & Classic Breakbeats

It's been kind of a strange week for Ghostface Killah fans. A web-based video game continued the feud between him and Action Bronson, then the almighty GFK popped up on a remix of The Weeknd and Kanye West's "Tell Your Friends." For the devout, these two incarnations likely proved to be a little disappointing. Not that new bars from Pretty Tony aren't always welcome, but we're sure a Weeknd flip wasn't exactly what y'all had in mind.

So today we're happy to bring you something old, something new and something just a little blue; a shockingly on-point mash-up of classic Ghostface and Wu-Tang material with some of hip-hop's most revered breaks. Ever wonder what "C.R.E.A.M." would sound like over The Godfather's "The Big Payback"? How about the blistering verbiage of "Run" over Jimmy Castor's "It's Just Begun"? The Skillz Beats-helmed (and President Obama-hosted) Ghostface Killah and Ultimate Breaks & Beats has all the answers, Sway. Give it a spin down below and for the aspiring DJ's of the world, make sure to clear-out some space in your set. Your next gig will be all kinds of lit.
