The Global Warming Rap grabbed my attention because the mash-up is rather unusual: people don’t tend to think of rap when they think of global warming and vice versa. This piece would work as a drop-in during the news on a station such as NPR. I like the music in this piece, it helps the acts flow along and creates drama and tension, but it could be cut down some between acts and maybe at the beginning to give the acts more attention. The lyrics are very clever and shocking; they bravely point the finger at who is responsible for global warming and warn of the continued consequences of these actions. The narration is compelling, but hard to understand in some spots due to high music levels and fast speaking. At 3:02, a woman's voice pops in unexpectedly along with a cut off female laugh. This act needs to be faded in at the beginning and end, where the ambient sound cuts off. The music levels need lowering under the voices so that they can be heard better. I like the ending; it is a neat way to leave the listener.

I enjoyed this Global Warming montage. Hip hop-like commentary and MOS are interspersed with a catchy bass line. My only quibble is the sudden street sounds behind the MOS. The background street noise should run low under the music just before you jump into the comments. This, of course, is one of the challenging aspects of editing MOS, because we usually get interviews on the street--hence Man On Street. Overall: nice work, it held me to the end.
