"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 Jessy Ribordy. Unlike most rap remix albums, the song's lyrics are also reimagined here with at least first verse of each track rewritten.

"Plain White Rapper (Kalimba Remix)", which was featured in "Hip Hope Hits 2007", 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"." [http://www.doveawards.com/categories/ 38th Annual Dove Award Recipients] ". Published by the Gospel Music Association. Retrieved April 26, 2007.]
