This is so oddly legit! I approve.

 

[Acrylic7]

Something dope that was recently released:

Mario Deep - Mobb Deep over Mario beats

This is amazing. Thanks man

 

[LordEssdot]

I'm on the first song.... love the sample at the end "I never seen Jigga play Chrono Trigga" haaaa

 

[Deleted member 1159]

I'm actually loving this. Getting love from my friends on fb too.

 

[Urban Scholar]

Oh man Masamune Problems, I'm feeling that track.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

Chrono Trigger tribute's all over the place today


This one isn't half bad though

http://richiebranson.com/2013/coming-soon-guardia/

Official single from Richie Branson's upcoming Chrono Trigger inspired album "From Guardia With Love"

YOUTUBE "From Guardia With Love"

Ok that was good.

Chrono Jigga is beyond awful but this is actually original and well done.

It feels like Chrono Jigga is just a publicity stunt to get the "nerd" crowd.

From Guardia with Love actually had some soul to it.

couldnt agree more

This is the star of the thread right here. Wonderful!

Another good one by him: Richie Branson ft. Random (Mega Ran) - #SuperNintendoSegaGenesis

Having heard From Guardia with Love literally a few seconds after discovering this page, I was really disappointed.

Although I should'nt have expected anything truly original to begin with.

Thanks for the Mega ran link!

 

[ZenVolta]

Downloaded.

 

[wildfire]

I made it 20 secs into a song. Holy shit that's terrible. Neat idea though, I guess.

Try another song. In general it's good.

But avoid Masamune Problems. It's harsh on the ears.

 

[Cheddahz]

They sure like Chrono Trigger. Here's another one with Secret of the forest sample.

Still one of my favorite rap songs ever

 

[BocoDragon]

I love both hip hop and Chrono... I think this sounds great!

 

[MuddyDonut]

Yeah heard that in his mixtape, the chipmonk sounding crap was terriple in kindom hearts it's even worse with frenchy on it.

French's drunk-like rapping/singing makes it work though! I love it.

 

[bounchfx]

I love the CT soundtrack.. and I've never listened to Jay Z, nor do I really like most rap.. but this is awesome.

 

[wildfire]

Something dope that was recently released:

Mario Deep - Mobb Deep over Mario beats

Holy shit. Just the first track is making this thread more than worthwhile. I hope the rest is just as sublime.

 

[RedAssedApe]

This is actually not that bad.

 

[kevo_huevo]

subscribing to this thread for the recommendations people are making.

this album is pretty dope too.

 

[Mister Zimbu]

Dear lord this is awful.

 

[jokkir]

Doesn't sound as bad as I was expecting. Pretty decent actually

 

[Blackace]

All rappers are really closet nerds.

Well gaming isn't exactly a nerd thing anymore...

 

[crimzonflame]

I had this awesome Black Album Megaman 2/3 mashup a couple of years ago.

 

[biosnake20]

Something dope that was recently released:

Mario Deep - Mobb Deep over Mario beats

Wow this is godlike.

 

[Fusebox]

This is the best videogame/rap crossover tune ever imo. FFVII.

Mako Reactor by Mega Ran:

[Parallax]

I heard this French Montana song on the radio the other day that samples the main theme from Kingdom Hearts 2 and I laughed so much. It was very earnest.

Rap producers really do love sampling 90s RPGs though, there's gotta be a dozen examples by now.

I heard that shit and started busting up laughing. So crazy

 

[airmangataosenai]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPntjTPWgKE

Still the best mash-up of this kind.

 

[raebodep]

Chronic Trigger - 420 A.D.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lEelz0iUJo

 

[Ether_Snake]

Roads Must Roll was pretty good. Zelda sample. Not rap.

 

[atomsk]

There was another Chrono Trigger rap mixtape a while back, but I forgot the title.

ytcracker - chrono nurga

on my phone or I'd grab the link

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Eh that was underwhelming.

YOUTUBE "From Guardia With Love"

Thread saved.

"I'm old school like reptite
everything I spit is truth, try to keep my rep tight"

 

[cj_iwakura]

Only Wiz song that isn't utter garbage.

I first heard that playing from a car on the street. My jaw hit the floor when I recognized the beat.


Also, that Mario Deep album kind of shows why this is poorly produced. It's just the lyrics pasted over time-adjusted beats. That Mario Deep stuff is remixed.

 

[Cramoss]

Busta Rhymes Island

 

[ryushe]

"An Encore In Time" is SOOOOOOOOO fucking good!

My favorite trigger track paired with one of my favorite Jay verses is as magical as I thought it'd be.

 

[cheststrongwell]

No love for Del? Bernie Stolar, GameFan, Xenogears. This song has it all.

[toastyToast]

I remember hearing this a few years ago

EPMD - Strictly Business (Corridors of Time)

You can throw whatever you want over Corridors of Time and Gato's theme and it'll sound hot

 

[Unstoppable Lionheart]

Well gaming isn't exactly a nerd thing anymore...

Real games are.

I don't consider someones who plays CoD 24/7 a "gamer" or a person that is into "gaming".

iOS gaming doesn't count either.

 

[Cuban Legend]

Yeaaah! Don't forget Marcus D's Retro'd!

Thought this would be appropriate to post since we're on the topic of videogame hip-hop music..
Though this doesn't have lyrics.

Flyrule: A Terrible Fate

It's pretty dope.

holy shit I just bought these 2 albums, they are godlike.

WHERE HAD THIS MUSIC BEEN ALL MY LIFE. It's like sick beats, to my favorite game music... FUCK ME.

 

[DashReindeer]

Also quite fond of this little gem:

TaeK - Biggie Boss Battles

 

[Cuban Legend]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZ20N6syuwc

Still my favorite Chrono remix.

how is this even possible. It predates the rick roll? <3

 

[Einhander]

Xenogears A Hip-Hop Reunion - Seeker of Power

 

[biosnake20]

I heard this French Montana song on the radio the other day that samples the main theme from Kingdom Hearts 2 and I laughed so much. It was very earnest.

Rap producers really do love sampling 90s RPGs though, there's gotta be a dozen examples by now.

What's the name of the song?

 

[Jadedx]

But Jay-Z is a great rapper. . .

NO.

 

[neoexidous]

I think it's pretty good, I listened to Masamune Problems.

I didn't know I wanted this.

Agreed, I didn't think this was worth listening to, but after the first 2 tracks I thought it was pretty good. I never knew I wanted my Hip Hop mixed with my gaming. I need to hear Childish Gambino with some zelda/mario tracks.

 

[Dunan]

At work, so can't link to Youtube, but look up Afrojack's uncannily-FF8-Dollet-mission-like music.

 

[Village]

All rappers are really closet nerds.

Yes, alot of them are actually.

Some of them are more open, kanye west being kinda a weeaboo, and well DOOM.

NO.

Oh he is, he just doesn't rap about anything. And that why i cant really listen to him anymore, just money money money.

I can give Mr. West a listen because occasionally he will rap about other things than himself, quite often. HE used to to do it ALOT MORE ( cough first 3 albums) but he still is doing better than jay-z in the, i have other things to rap about than me having money and possible organized crime connections department. Though jay-z i could believe have possible illegal doings more than others, a Mr.Ross comes to mind, is a wonder how a blatant liar can sell albums, and not just a persona kinda thing, just strait up liar.

 

[Mesoian]

Hahaha this Crazy in Love x Gato track is pretty stupid

This is no Ocarina of Rhyme though.

No, but few is. Even Team Teamwerk has trouble recapturing the magic of Ocarina of Rhyme.

This is pretty interesting though. it's not the worst thing I've ever heard. Lot of little niggling problems here and there but over all, it's somewhat solid (he said 2 minutes into the first song).

 

[djtiesto]

At work, so can't link to Youtube, but look up Afrojack's uncannily-FF8-Dollet-mission-like music.

There's a video interview of Afrojack and you see him in a plane playing Triple Triad on his laptop.

 

[Ghost Dad the Whip]

No love for Del? Bernie Stolar, GameFan, Xenogears. This song has it all.

Mega man legends map purchases!

Was gonna post this but ya beat me. Greatest (after that 99 Pparapas video, what a revelation)

 

[Boss Riovane]

It wasnt bad but personally I have been rockin that Chrono Trigger Mixtape for years.

http://youtu.be/kIZMXCXtDeQ

still loving it

 

[Flakster99]

Thanks for posting the link. As someone who loves CT and is ambivalent towards Jay-Z, absolutely digging the combination.

Also really digging the various links to the other mixes, and holy fuck @ the Richie Branson - #BringBackChrono (All I Had), so awesome.

 

[The Light]

Man mash-ups like these never cease to amaze me.

 

[anchorman128]

This is a new one I guess, HipHop Gamer just released his God of War rap its not using god of war sounds but unlike the other remixes its about the game.

Haha hes actually not too bad although the video is ridiculously corney

Something dope that was recently released:

Mario Deep - Mobb Deep over Mario beats

This is really good. I also really like that song from Richie Branson.
