The time they went and ruined a perfectly good song...
So, what do you do if you are one of the few artists who did not take part in a a super collaboration for a massive hit? You can make your own remix!
Well, at least that's what seems to have happened with Lil Wayne, Big Sean and Drake, who released a remix of Kanye's song "All of the Lights", which features everyone from Rihanna to Fergie to Kid Cudi to John Legend to Elton John to La Roux and many many more.
"All of the Lights" is my favourite song from Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, so I feel extra-slighted by this remix. It ruins the song, in my opinion.
Gone is the storyline about a troubled man trying to pull his life together for his daughter. Gone is the sing-along chorus. Gone is the anthemic feeling that happens toward the end.
Instead, we have these three guys basically bragging about their status and wealth and sexual prowess. Way to dumb it down.
Hey, losers, there's probably a reason Kanye didn't put you on the track. And this is why.
