MLK Vs. J Dilla

Last night, I decided to throw some beats from J Dilla underneath one of the most famous speeches ever, Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech, in honor of MLK Day today. I think it came out kind of nice, it's nice to tap your feet while dreaming of a revolution. Here are the download links:

Here is the speech, sans Dilla beats.
Here is the full video of the "I Have A Dream" speech:

I suppose this is a stylistic question but is this mashup really MLK VERSUS J Dilla or is it MLK x(multiplied in power by) J Dilla?
I see a lot of people use the versus designation when the forces are being combined and not diameterically opposed.
Now I'll go back to drinking my Crystal Light and vodka from my special sippee cup in my mother's basement.

I keep it Versus. I don't subscribe to the notion of "X" when dealing with things of this nature. That's a hipsterism to the nth degree.
Soulja Boy x Barney = not for me.
