MiaoMix Monday #3 [Rap Remixes]

This week’s playlist is a collection of rap remixes of pop/indie songs. Sampling songs like these has become increasingly popular in the last few years and it’s resulted in some pretty creative songs. It’s always pleasant to listen to a track and recognize a familiar song that I already love, especially if the rapper does the sample justice. This week’s mix contains some chill rap and upbeat rap. Samples include “Don’t Stop Believin'” and “Rolling in the Deep”. Listen to the mix below:

Neako – “The Dawn”
Josh Bonney – “Gimme the Beat (ft. Benjy Johnson)”
Chiddy Bang – “Cameras”
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis – “Otherside”
OCD: Moosh & Twist – “City Kids”
Jamie xx – “Rolling in the Deep (REMIX) ft. Childish Gambino
Foster the People – “Pumped Up Kicks (DJ Reflex Remix) (feat. Kendrick Lamar)”
Olu – “I’m Ballin”
