 Hear ye, hear ye! Proposal to overhaul this article 

Any serious contributors to this article take note: it is overlong, full of all sorts of self-promotion, non-notable artists/albums, irrelevant information (cut-ups) and so on. I propose giving it a good kick in the nuts/ovaries (let's be PC here) and trying to make it encyclopaedic. Cue oohs and aaahs with fairy lights and tinkly tinkly music. Anyone willing to help out, chime in, or otherwise give their informed opinion on say the US mashup scene and its notable proponents, please make yourselves known.
Or, as a duly appointed scurvy-infested pirate Cap'n, I will hack'n'slash my way through it alone ;-) A warning shot across ye bows.  Parley! "
