MLS Anthem Remix, The Verve Pipe Dreams, & Kanye



Remember way back when (like, April) when I put the call out to all the laptop rockers and digital DJ's out there to take a stab at remixing the MLS anthem? I only received a handful of submissions but props to all who threw their work out there for us.

In the end though the first remix that we got, from
Noddable Industries, was actually the best. He didn't go over the top for a complete over-haul, but added just enough low end and percussion to make it into a head-nodder. What would really be the heat though would be if he could get fellow Chi-Towner and 2006 MLS All-Star game performer Lupe Fiasco to spit over the top (because we know that he doesn't have the champagne and Louis Vuitton budget to get Kanye to do it). Hear the full length here.

And while we're talking about it, who the hell is playing the All-Star game halftime show this year? I haven't heard a peep about it so I'm going to give my unwanted, unsolicited, and unrealistic suggestion; the newly
reunited Verve . People are always going on about how to get all those EPL-loving 'Eurosnobs' to watch MLS…I'll bet my cat that you'd turn Colorado into Camden Town for the day if you could make this happen.

No way. I think the Neptunes remix (and most of that remix album) were phoned in.

I've read that people think this MLS Anthem remix is a complete insult because they prefer the old one because it fits exactly with the soccer player's style. Buy Viagra Generic Viagra
