I thought this would be the music remixed sort of like Z-Trip remixes old songs in a hip-hop style, but it's just some crummy rappers singing the lyrics over the original AC/DC music. If you like AC/DC, you'll enjoy the intros, but once the singing starts, its turns to a lousy cover by some mediocre rappers. And I assume this CD is meant for AC/DC fans, otherwise stores wouldn't stock it under AC/DC. It sucks that you can't return open CDs. Maybe I can get 37 cents for it on eBay so I can stamp my complaint letter to www.tributesounds.com. But I doubt anyone would be willing to pay that much. Oh well. At least I can warn other unsuspecting buyers. BUYER BEWARE!

I listened to all of the tracks at the record store yesterday and then stumbled across this page on Amazon while looking for other Mash-ups cd's. I never written a cd review on Amazon. I had to register just to warn everyone who might think this cd is cool. It's not cool! It's total garbage and not worth a penny. I'm serious. DO NOT BUY THIS CD!!

This is awful, and yes I'm 40 but I do like some rap. But the only good cover of ac/dc I've ever heard black or white was HARD CORPS cover of Back in Black. It's really good but the album is very hard to find.

The CD is labeled "Hip-Hop Tribute" and "Ultimate Mashup Series" - of the 10 tracks on the CD, there's only 1 track worth barely listening to, #7 "T.N.T.". There is nothing hip-hop about this album at all. When the first track plays, it starts off like every other cover song of AC/DC, a decent guitar lick, but accompanied by annoying crowd cheers, and you wait for the first lyrics to drop and then [crash], you can't help but frown.

Listening to this CD actually made me angry. This is by far, the worst CD I've ever listened to. Each song has lazy sounding vocals, with only an urban dialect. If the annunciation is what qualified this as hip-hop, it's a big fail.

The idea I had in my head, like others when buying this CD, was something with an edgy rap - think "Numb/Encore" Jay-Z and Linkin Park. If you are going to lazily sing AC/DC songs, I can go to a karaoke bar for that. This is worse. If anyone tried to sing AC/DC in a karaoke bar the way these guys did, they'd get booed out.

I'm severely disappointed.

Do not buy this CD.

(I meant to rate this CD -10, or better yet, -infinity)

What the Hell is this?!! How in the f*** can you make a hip-hop song out of "Highway to Hell"? What is the world coming to? Don't buy this CD. Just don't! Please! If you do insist on wasting your money on this blasphemous sin to all rock music, burn it upon purchase and cleanse the world of this filth.

This CD combines Rcok and Rap. The people who dont like this dont like hip-hop. The other person who gav this a review is probably a 40 year old guy who dont like rap and dont like that its takin over the music industy

There's no denying AC/DC's greatness or their influence on music. And, in my opinion, there are similarities in hard rock and some hip hop. Rock is my favorite music. But the hip hop I like often has a good hard beat to it. This record is a great update on some of the greatest music in history. They've even made the already hard beats in the original music even harder. Rock on.

(...)The only good rap is Nas, Outkast, and Kanye West. Everything else sucks. I hate how they took the worst possible rappers and told them to try to replicate the gods of rock, AC/DC. That is just so wrong it doesn't even come close to making any sense. If I ever find out just who was responsible for the creation of this abomonation of an album, I'll take legal action. That's how screwed up this is. You can't just immitate AC/DC like this with stupid hip hop and expect anyone who loves AC/DC to like this. And also I'm so sick of all these reviewers (mostly on iTunes) giving this five stars and saying AC/DC sucks (or as they say, 'sux'. That explains their intelligence). Those people are probably homosexuals or just plain dumb people. Anybody who'd give this five stars needs help. SERIOUS help. And besides, if you somehow favor hip hop moreso than the greatest rock band ever, why the hell would you come on here and look up "AC/DC" anyway?! God people are so stupid! (...)
