Kanye West vs. Sam Smith - Tell Me I'm The Only One (Carlos Serrano Mix)

Mashups more often end up being misses than hits; with all this musical technology nowadays it’s much too easy to blend two tracks together. However, once in a rarity, we will find astounding mixes that actually sound great together. Carlos Serrano does just that with his new mashup of Kanye West‘s Graduation classic, “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” and Sam Smith‘s recent hit, “Tell Me I’m The Only One.” The San Diego native splendidly melded Yeezy’s heartfelt lyrical performance over Smith’s organic, piano-driven instrumental, giving the song a very specific bittersweet vibe that neither of the tracks could display to that extent by themselves individually. Listen above for a truly melancholic experience.
