About the Project-
I was late jumping on The White Stripes bandwagon. But, when I heard "Doorbell" a few years back I became an instant fan. That raw, classic sound was so fresh to me. I went straight to iTunes and downloaded the whole album. It wasn't long before I owned everything they'd ever released.
What really got me was that I wanted to sample almost every song. But, I couldn't just shamelessly sample their whole catalog. Plus, I had just decided to move away from sampling and focus on writing original music. So, a remix project seemed like the thing to do, and the idea was born.
I started digging through my collection and fitting all the pieces together. My goal was to use only samples from The White Stripes and a cappellas from classic songs and my favorite emcees. And of course, I had to rap on one of the tracks myself, with my man Brian Jacobs on the hook.
So there it is, hip-hop fans, meet The White Stripes.
Fans of The White Stripes, meet hip-hop.

The White Stripes: White Stripes to Play Conan's Last "Late Night"
White Stripes to Play Conan's Last "Late Night"
Conan O'Brien and the White Stripes go back a long way. Like that time the tri-colored duo played "Late Night" for a whole week back in 2003. Or when the tall-haired host made a cameo in the trippy, Michel Gondry-directed "Denial Twist" video. Or when Jack and Meg played two songs in one show in 2007 to promote Icky Thump.
So with Conan leaving "Late Night" to replace comedy super-villain Jay Leno on "The Tonight Show", it makes perfect sense for the White Stripes to blitz the show's farewell episode. It will be the White Stripes' first live performance since summer 2007. As if you needed another reason to tune in February 20-- it's Conan's last episode, people! Conan is a genius.
Looking back at some of the old WS/Conan performances, a few things are clear: this band was on some seriously stratospheric level of cool back in 2003, this version of "Let's Build a Home" will blow your britches off, and they really need to put another record out soon. The world needs them.
No word yet on which song they'll play on the show-- I'm lobbying for "Ball and Biscuit" because it is amazing and will allow for maximum Jack spazz-age.
In other Conan news, fellow genius Norm Macdonald showed up on "Late Night" yesterday and killed.
