I first caught wind of the The Cranberry Show when they dropped Paranormal Karaoke project back in February of 2012. Becoming hooked from the very first track, I’ve been keeping tabs on the midwest alternative duo ever since. So when I heard about their next project — the one you are checking at this very moment — I definitely wanted the Dopehouse involved in some form or fashion. So, without further adieu here goes the world premiere of The Jellyfish Theory. Stream/download after the jump.

UPDATE: Guest spots are now filled and the line-up features Meek Mill, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa, 2 Chainz, Sam Dew and Tiara Thomas. No Ross? Interesting. Hit the jump and see how y’all held up in the “Who Will Be On What? challenge haha.
