Now, finally to the great Sir Jon!
1. Pressure zone- Beck
Awesome Beck rocker. “I could live inside her box a hundred years.” His lyrics never really make much sense, but I always enjoy them, and this makes you wanna mosh/dance the whole damn time. Great production!

2. Track 5- JDilla
Beautiful rhythmic track by dilla, just makes you bop your head, and awesome scatting by BUSTA BUST to start us off. This makes you wanna cry over the loss of a genius and be pissed at the loss of a great working relationship b/n these guys!

3. Reset- Big Boi feat. Khujo Ghoodie and Cee-lo
Slow jam from Big Boi. This Khujo ripps it up a lil, nicely done, and Cee-lo just warms you over once he puts his foot in the door- that guy is an allstar. Good number from Speakerboxx.

4. She’s Alive- 3000
3000’s autobiographical number, great piano and drumbeat on this. Nice falsetto too, tho I think this number goes on too long.

5. Body Movin’ feat. J Rocc and Karriemm Riggins- J Dilla
Wow, the Shining is just so damn good, and you gotta love the quotes of Jack from the actual movie, Dilla is a genius!

6. Lewis- Yo La Tengo
Great indie number here, this band is so tight. I’m not as familiar with them certainly as the josh. But they do a bit of jam, freak out guitar at the end and I love it. I Got It!

7. Take It Or Leave It- The Strokes
My God, a classic, an absolute classic. “Leave Me Alone, I’m in Control!!!!”
Casablancas gutteral singing and the rhythmic guitar reveal these guys at their absolute sexy best!

8. In Dreams- Weezer
Wow, what a lucky guy. This song describes me still to this day. I so live in my head its not even funny. Its slow, so sad, and then they get pissed and just rock out. Frickin Rivers, what the hell happened buddy.

9. How I Could Just Kill A Man (Live)- Rage Against A Machine
Hell Yeah, Bounce Around, Wave Dem Gats Son! They even bring in BReal & SenDog to help them out Cypress’ own song, and it just reminds you of how good Rage were live, the josh please make Coachella happen!

10. The House that Jack Built- Metallica
Yeah-uh! A somewhat cheesy but kickass number from Load, I loved this song when it came out. Jaymz and the boys kick it out in full shorthair mode, its no Master of Puppets, but if you want to turn the volume all the way up, it does the job!
What do you crusaders have for me?
That's right, nothing!!!!!
