DJ Green Lantern | Dope Wars
An entire “mixtape” dedicated to hustling and the streets. Not that the concept is any different than any rap music coming out today, but the selected tracks and samples Green Lantern put together for this mix is fire. The intro from The Wire when the prosecutor was questioning Omar Little about robbing drug dealers sets the whole thing off properly. The Wire samples that are peppered throughout the whole mix are on point and, in my opinion, some of the best quotes from the series.
DJ Green Lantern created a 60-minute mix for the Dope Wars NFT community that aims to immerse listeners in the mindset of playing the classic underground 90s Drug Wars calculator game. The mix incorporates elements of the game such as “Dope” and “Hustler,” which are sprinkled throughout. For more information, visit DopeWars.GG.
