The lines between hip-hop, dancehall, pop, house and just about every genre you can think of are getting blurrier every minute, and almost no one’s genre-vision is hazier than Bay Area duo The Cataracs. Comprised of Campa and Cyrano, neither of whom are legally old enough to drink, The Cataracs are making their first DJBooth appearance with a song that defies easy description, Club Love (The Yay Remix). Anchored by some appropriately club-centric production by Cyrano that remarkably manages not to overuse auto-tune, the remix recruits Bay Area godfather E-40 to bring some street appeal to the pair’s otherwise lighthearted lyrical approach, resulting in a track that’s got guilty pleasure written all over it. I won’t lie, I’m fascinated to see how the Booth is going to respond to this one. Club Love will be part of their self-titled album The Cataracs, which currently has no set release date. Looks like you’ll just have to stay tuned to DJBooth.net for all the latest.

Okay, I am going to break it down like this... if I was DJing a party there would be no reason why I wouldn't rotate this record. Under my own personal headphone, probably not. The beat is hypnotic - the ladies will love this record (trust me).

Sidebar: E-40 can adapt to ANY record when he does a guest 16. Not too many emcees can say that.

No NO NO NO....Just NO. I don't think all these genres mashed up went well at all. I wouldn't even play this in the club in the DJ booth; so why would I continue to play it on djbooth.net?

I honestly can't make up my mind. I either never want to hear this again or just found my new guilty pleasure track. Frankly the weakest part of the cut is The Cataracts rhymes. If this was all 40 the beat could turn it into a real smash.

Lol okay, so here's the deal: this song will NEVER make it onto my iPod, but will destroy clubs. So, I have to respect that. Not a DJ myself, but would definitely put it in rotation if I was.

Not a song I would play personally, but like some of you guys said, I can understand how they dig it out there in the clubs.

i prefer the original, but being from the bay, i've heard their other stuff, and they're really creative and have an alternative/techno/club sound that, to me, works...they make good sh**

(listen to "casanova", "2nite", "hit me back", "first time", "sunshine", "make him fall in love" etc. for sum of their other work)
