Art Every Wednesday (18)

In 1968 The Beatles release The White Album. In 2003 Jay-Z released The Black Album. In 2004 DJ Dangermouse combined the two of them and release The Grey Album. Dangermouse used sounds from The White Album and interlaced them with beats and lyrics from The Black album and made a new piece of art out of the hybrid.

Below is Rocky Raccoon by the Beatles, Justify My Thug by the Beatles, and the hybrid by DJ Dangermouse.
