If I really had to pick a favourite mixtape of mine, and it’s a random one because a lot of the blogs that promoted it don’t exist anymore, but it would have to be Alien NYC’s Mixtape Madness, which was released on 20th August 2007. Alien NYC was this group of artists from New York, predominantly black, and they just looked fucking cool. It was a lot of cross-genre stuff before it started popping off – it has a lot of M.I.A., MeLo-X, Theophilus London on it – and the leader of the group was Quan-Luv, who brought everyone together.
