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.
2 great common songs in 2 nights. wow. This beat is crazy as hell and chorus is tight as well. I asked for more from common yesterday, and yeah i got it.
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
What! This song was fiyah as an original.. The revamp is sick!... Smooth.... This is the kind of joint you can listen to on the drive to work...
Oh man.. Here we go... PattyPatty85, I actually care to know what "your type of hip hop" is.. I only care to know because you didnt even give it 1 star.. Im curious to know why.....
yeah...i agree w/ PattyPatty. i mean, i can like sum of da "real hip hip" like Lupe's "hip hop saved my life" track (and of course i like crunk bangerz) but DIS iz not work-n 4 me.
The original track was already classic. I hate when people mess up classic wit remixes. But this right, crzy!!!!! nice remix. Why did it take them so long to do this though??
haha yeah they took so long cuz they didnt wanna desecrate a classic hip hop song...good remix tho...im not much of a common fan either..but this gets 3.5
