DISCLAIMER: This mix tape was created specifically for Yewnee’s Summer Mix Series 2012 for sonic recreational purposes only. I do not own any of this music (I have some of this on CD though).

My other two mixtapes for Yewknee’s Mix Series can be found HERE too. They’re pretty good.

My mixtape is now officially part of Yewknee’s Summer Mix Series 2011, it’s called The Whitest Hip Hop You Know: Indie Kids Edition, it’s available for download now through their website (which leads back to my website) featuring 10 awesome rap tracks handpicked specially for those of you who want to get into hip hop but don’t really know what to jump into. It also has a very special audio foreword by Dr. Stephen Hawking (author of History of The Universe, The Universe Explained Vol.2 and History of Hip Hop In Space).

I think it’s pretty neat. If you downloaded it and liked it then please help me out by commenting through their website or reblogging (sharing it) to your other followers and friends.

PS: Last year I made another Mixtape for them called RESPECT: A Compliation of Badass Electro which also received good reviews and hits (it still gets downloads and reblogs today) so If you like this mixtape give the 2010 one a try, really dancy stuff.
