Prior to the release of their forthcoming VP/Universal debut, Whose World Is This (which features Talib Kweli, Young Buck and Trey Songz amongst others), production duo K-Salaam & Beatnick will tell a few stories.  Not just any stories; however, but rather Stories Told Over Remixed Years.  Taking hit records from rapper Common’s large catalog, the duo is replacing the original productions with a whole new sound.  Following a previously-released remix of Go, the duo has dropped a spanking new version of Common’s The Corner.  Waving goodbye to Kanye’s production and a sample from the Temptations’ What It Is, K-Salaam & Beatnick transform the former single into an Issac Hayes-esqe 70’s era head-nodder.

We can't never get enough of Common! I've heard some other remixes of this as well. This is just as hot. Y'all should also check out my boy Teddy Roxpin's remix to it @ http://www.myspace.com/teddyroxpinbeats. This is nice and psychadelic. I can rock with this joint. I was just thinking about this track all day today. Weird. I wouldn't say this is as hot as the original Kanye production, but it's a nice addition to the family.

I like this mix. Not as good as the og but good. sounds like a beat from reasonable doubt. Off topic, but wouldin you like to see another reasonable doubt album form jay? That was indeed a classic record.

This is what I'm talking about. Man...this is fresh. Hook is the only weakness of this track, otherwise, I would rate this song as a classic.

Damn, Common is on fire recently. I give this a classic rating which I rarely give. Some people think soulja boy is hip hop, they need to know this is real hip hop

I love the original ("The Corner" ) To me this new beat is too smooth for the lyrical content. I like the original wayyyyy better.
