Terry Urban’s latest mixtape project, aptly named “Me and Mr. Jones,” sounds too good to be true: 17 Nas classics paired with selec- tions from the fallen queen of new soul, Amy Winehouse. Some of Urban’s couplings work better than others, but “Mr. Virgo” infects with ease. Combining Winehouse’s titular “Me and Mr. Jones” (Back to Black, 2006) with “Virgo” by Nas, this breezy mash-up is so meant to be it might seem obvious that the “Mr. Jones” Winehouse sings about is Mr. Nasir Jones himself. Add in a seamless verse from Ludacris to sweeten the deal, and you’ve got the perfect little summer jam — which just so happens to come from a handful of music's heavyweights.
