The Hood Internet’s take on 1987 is just fantastic — as good as anything Girl Talk ever did. And the part where they mashed up Whitney and Belinda singing “I wanna dance with somebody” and “do you know what that’s worth?” really hit different in the when-will-there-ever-be-nightclubs-again era. Outstanding.

For the past several months, beloved mash-up artists the Hood Internet have been taking 50 top pop hits from a year, throwing them into a blender, and turning them into certified bangers in their own right. Their take on 1986, which kicks off with a masterful mix of “Invisible Touch” and “You Can Call Me Al,” is a perfect introduction to the series.
