Note to the Recording Industry Association of America, the New York Police Department, and the proprietors of Mondo Kim's: To the best of my knowledge, all the fine DJ mixes below are perfectly legal. It's harder to be certain than one might think, though. For illegal activities, you might consider focusing instead on the fifth album by onetime teenage Jungle Brother Sensational (formerly Torture), who tells us what he's smoking while he smokes it. And then he raps, sort of, seemingly straight off the top of his very cloudy head.
