If you follow us on Twitter, you know that we are always constantly twittering away with our closest friends in the blogosphere. When our pal over at ListenBeforeYouBuy extended the offer to participate in a mixtape battle, it was an offer that we simply could not refuse!

Every week there's a new battle going on this week our turn came up! Our very own Rocko has stepped up to the plate and put together a mixtape based on the designated theme from last week's battle loser, which was "clouds". We're facing off against WeListenForYou and we're hoping to severly crush him in the spirit of most friendly competitions.

Why am I telling you all this? Because we need YOUR help to win! Head over to Blogger Mixtape Battle - Week 5 via ListenBeforeYouBuy and vote for the best mixtape of the two. We can't tell you which one is ours, but we figure you can sort that out on your own (you're all incredibly smart, which is why we like you).

While there is no big prize for the winner, we definitely pride ourselves in our mix making abilities and would love to have further proof on the internet that we continue to rule.

We hope you enjoy both mixes! We know we did!
