Kanye West has been tweeting a lot recently about the remix to his new single Power, which we can finally reveal features Jay-Z and Swizz Beats.
The remix is split into two parts, the first half being Jay-Z’s, and the second being under the control of Swizz Beats, or as I prefer to describe it the good part and the bad part.
I really can’t fucking stand Swizz Beats, his productions are absolutely shit, yet he continues to get work by the bucketload. In this remix he completely ruins a sample of The Power by Snap by adding his trademark annoying big beat drums and repetitive reverberating vocals.
I literally looked through his complete production discography and only found 2 songs I like, which says it all really considering how long the page is. I bet he is rubbing his hands with glee at the prospect of getting his hooks further in to Alicia Keys’s signing career.
Ignore my rant though, as Kanye does his thing pretty well, so you will definitely enjoy that aspect of the track.
