From Wikipedia: (Danger Mouse is the dj who created it)
The album, which Danger Mouse released in limited quantities to a few outlets, created a massive amount of controversy when EMI, the White Album's copyright holder, ordered Danger Mouse and retailers carrying the album to cease distribution of the album. While mixtapes and other recordings containing unauthorized samples and copies of songs are sold and distributed regularly unnoticed by record labels that own the recordings, the amount of attention The Grey Album received caused EMI to act. Danger Mouse never asked permission to use the Beatles' material, and intended to fly under the radar with a limited production run of 3,000 copies.
Jay-Z's material, on the other hand, was comercially released in acappella form. Although the work was copyrighted, it was released for the implicit purpose of encouraging mash-ups and mixes.
EMI's response to the album caused Downhill Battle, an activist group seeking to restructure the music industry, to start and lead a massive Internet-based protest dubbed Grey Tuesday, to express the opinion that sampling is fair use and that a statutory license should be provided in the same manner as if a given song had been covered.
Although the album was already well-known among hip-hop and mash-up afficionados, the album quickly became extremely popular and well-distributed over the Internet because of the surrounding publicity. It also came to the attention of the critical establishment; It received a very positive write-up in the February 9, 2004 issue of The New Yorker and was named the Best of 2004 in the category music by Entertainment Weekly. The Village Voice's annual Pazz and Jop critics poll ranked the album 10th for 2004.[1]
