Cooking Soul is a concept of mixtapes from a producers point of view, blending songs with new artists to create music that speaks to multiple generations. I love the Cooking Soul mixtape series and what they are trying to do with music of the past to introduce it to new generations. But even without the Cooking Soul concept Michael Jackson was so well loved and well known that his music already impacted multiple generations and was still impacting our world to this day. As far as Michael Jackson Tributes go I personally prefer DJ Emir’s Michael Jackson Badder Than Bad Mixtape which really goes hard from start to finish with amazing mixes and blends. He put together the hardest remix of BAD I have ever heard and cuts up Michael’s Bad A-Cappella like no other DJ in the game. His mixtape also features tons of original Michael Jackson and Jackson 5 songs along with tons of music that was originally sampled from Michael Jackson hits like 2pacs “letter to my Unborn Child” Jay-Z “I.Z.Z.O.” and Nas’ “It Ain’t Hard to Tell” which really emphasizes the amount of influence Michael still has on today’s Hip Hop music and today’s music artists. Cooking soul is a great mixtape as far as production goes, but DJ Emir’s Badder than Bad is on a whole new level when it comes to a total listening experience. I’ve listened to many other mixtape tributes to Michael Jackson and these two are the One’s I’d recomend to others. I haven’t heard any other mixtapes that really do Michael great music justice like The Cooking Soul and The Badder than Bad mixtape. These are the only two mixtapes I feel are worth a relistening to over and over and the only One’s I feel are creative in their execution verses the countless mini mixtape compilation mixes that are out there.
