LIKE IT? LOVE IT? HATE IT?

Wondering what former Blink 182 drummer, Travis Barker, has been up to lately? He recently teamed up with DJ AM to create the Fix Your Face mixtape, which you can listen to in its entirety HERE.

Basically it's DJ AM cutting together a collection of tracks ranging from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Daft Punk, and Jay Z, to a handful of old-school hip-hop classics. Where does Travis Barker fit into this? Well, he plays live drums over the mixes.

I still haven't decided if this is pure awesomeness or utter stupidity, hence the title "LIKE IT? LOVE IT? HATE IT?" Please help sway me either way.
