SARR - Girl Talk - All Day


In which everybody’s favorite mash-up DJ asks his audience if he can take the day off. Greg Gillis sounds a tad uninspired here. Compared to 2008’s raucous Feed the Animals, All Day sounds rigid, static and soulless. Certain combinations – “Blitzkrieg Bop” (Ramones), “Tipsy ‘09” (J-Kwon), “La Di Da” (Slick Rick) and “Waiting for the Sun” (the Doors) – don’t fit together as seamlessly as tracks such as “Jailbreak” (Thin Lizzy) and “Crank That” (Soulja Boy) did on Feed The Animals. All Day isn’t completely flat, however. The opening two minutes, featuring Ludacris’ “Move, Bitch” mashed up against the first verse of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs,” is sure to get the blood flowing, but I don’t know if the rest of the album will make you get up and dance.
