Wow, surprised is not even the word to describe what I felt when I heard of the mash-up. This CD I can literally listen to two of my favorite songs at once. As a big fan of Jay-z, and Linkin Park to another degree, this idea was heaven. Dirt/Lying is great, Jay-z's iconic cocky flows over powerful guitar, was simply incredible. Numb/Encore was good as well, however Izzo/Faint was rather dismal and the only thing that keeps me from scoring this a fat 5
