When he released Cassie‘s Must Be Love this past March, Diddy immediately declared it a “Bad Boy Classic.”  The self-proclaimed “inventor of the remix” clearly knew what he was talking about, as the downtempo, Mario Winans-produced cut has now received its own star-studded overhaul.  After Busta Rhymes brings a little low-volume, What’s It Gonna Be?! / I Know What You Want-style energy, new Bad Boy signee Red Cafe heightens the mood with a smooth second verse.  The remix’s strongest moments, though, come courtesy of Day26, whose smooth vocals will have listeners thinking “112.” Hopefully, the success of this old-school cut will inspire Diddy to take a similar direction with his entire roster’s work, starting with Cassie’s upcoming sophomore album, which still has no title or release date.

MUCH more enjoyable than the semi-boring original version. Busta (who is on my sh*t list) comes with it, as does Red Cafe. Day26 also sound great over this Winans production. Oh and Cassie...

The original was pretty boring, Cassie sounds pretty bored wit her vocals. The guest features save it and push it into rotation for me. Busta actually adds a nice lil vibe to the track, and Day 26 add some emotion to it.

Like the original, but the remix is better! Busta's verse isn't crap, can you believe it?!?! It's reminiscent of "I Know What You Want", and that's a good thing.

I wasn't a big fan of the original, but I like this Remix a lot better ... Busta & Day26 does it big on here, so it gets a 4* from me ... Red Cafe's verse is nice, but it sounded a lil off-key on dis beat, maybe its just me ... oh well, BANGER!!!

Sick song, Busta does his usual thing, Red Cafe raps the same way on every song, and Day26 is the truth (who tops them vocally?).

P.S. Anyone that likes this song needs to listen to N.O.R.E.'s remix, he kills it OJ style, NO JOKEEE.

I was feeling this one way more than the original. Busta sounded great over this production (flow reminded me of his new song "Decision"). Red Cafe sounded cool and Day26 contributed some smooth vocals.

this is WAYYYYYYY better then the original, busta spits a tight verse, with a male verse from day26 it got a nice touch. the production is smooth, but i want to hear some new stuff from Mario Winans though

Much better than the original for sure..like the vibe of the track. Busta and Day26 sound comfortable over the beat. Cassie does sound a little bored lacking a lot of energy. In rotation

I wish I could ask this directly to Cassie but how does it feel to be outshined by every single feature on your own record? If you take Cassie out of here and make this a Day 26 song it would only be an improvement.

the only reason i make this song "ok" is b/c busta & day 26 are a part of it. please tell me what makes Cassie a singer????? I have never ever heard her BLOW. Her voice is just way too soft to be a REAL singer. She's the girl who never makes it to Hollywood on American Idol. She wouldn't have even made it on Danity Kane. To me, she skates by on her good looks. Note to Diddy - remake this as a Day 26 song.
