Viva La Hova (2008)

Artists: Coldplay & JayZ
Produced By: Mick Boogie & Terry Urban
Album Type: Mix Tape / Rock / Pop / Rap
Released: October 2008



The ORB's Take:
An UNBELIEVABLE mix of 2 great artists!

Album Review:
Viva La Hova will not be found in any store, but if you are lucky you might be able to find it online somewhere and download it. This mixtape mash-up album was put together by Mick Boogie (a well known DJ from NYC) & Terry Urban (a well known DJ from Cleveland, OH.) and it is very, very professionally done. If you are a fan of either of these two artist you will enjoy listening to the great chemistry they have created in this mixtape. Listening to the song "Know My Place" really enhances just how talented Jay Z rally is. Mixing songs like Coldplay's "We Never Change" and Jay Z's "Never Change" to make the track "Never Changing" seems like it was suppose to be an original song they were meant to write and record together. "Lost Part 1" which is an original on Coldplay's latest album Viva La Vida and was also released on an EP that they just recently put out, showcases Jay Z and elevates the song to a different level. Being a fan of both of these artists the track "X-Y-Z" makes you want to listen to this album again and again to hear the talent from all the parties involved in this project. Even if you aren't familiar with either of these artists, or you are just a fan of one them, it is worth a listen; especially since it is free.

What to Listen to: "X-Y-Z", "Public Speeding", "Miss Trouble", "Never Changing"
