Remixed is a remix album by KJ-52, featuring a reggaeton mix of Behind the Musik's "Jesus", "47 Emcees (Plus 18 More Mix)" which reimagines the originally beatbox-driven track with multiple layered beats, each corresponding to the verse's genre; East Coast, West Coast, old school, and Dirty South, and an angst-driven, Linkin Park-inspired nu metal remix of hit "Are You Real?" featuring an emo rock hook provided by Falling Up's . Unlike most rap remix albums, the songs' lyrics are also reimagined here with at least first verse of each track rewritten.
"Plain White Rapper (Kalimba Remix)", which was featured in , was reportedly intended to be a collaborative effort between KJ-52 and John Reuben (who previously appeared in the Collaborations song "The Choice Is Yours").
The album won the 2007 Dove Award for "Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year".[3]
