Mixtape: Team Invasion Present Jay-Z & Green Lantern- Creative Control

Before it was the mighty Neil Armstrong, DJ Green Lantern infamously toured with Jigga Man as his #1 on the 1′s and 2′s. In fact, around the time of his 2006 album “KINGDOM COME” Green & Jay had intended to drop ‘Presidential Invasion’ — a promotional mixtape created while the two were touring Africa and promoting Jay’s “The Diary of Jay-Z: Water for Life” conquest to aid African countries in the pursuit of clean water. That mixtape never materialized, and the hip-hop world was left waiting for that elusive Hova v. Evil Genius collaboration.

Four years later — with the summer of 2010 as the backdrop, and Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label and DJ Green Lantern’s Team Invasion as the suppliers — S. Carter takes it to the next level with a new kind of CREATIVE CONTROL. Green and Jay do the damn thing and drop this official new mixtape masterpiece, complete with trademark GL production, remixes, live appearances and never-before-heard music.
