Jim Jones has recently developed a habit of jumping on other artists’ most popular songs.  Following the star-studded takeover of Ron Browz’ Northeast club smash, Pop Champagne, Jones is building up quite the hype for his new album, entitled Pray IV Reign, with yet another reworking of an existing single.  On the “remix” to electro-pop superstars MGMT’s Electric Feel, the former DipSet capo, along with original producers Ben Goldwasser and Andrew Van Wyngarden, create a unique blend of synth and street.  Unlike most artists who simply snatch or grab others music, the Harlem-born Jones actually came together with the Brooklyn-residing MGMT in the studio.  Electric Feel could most certainly be spun in East Coast clubs alongside the work of fellow genre-bending tastemaker Swizz Beatz; does Jones need to Pray IV Reign, or is this one in the bag?

jim jones is not that great, the other jones (Mike jones) is way better. His new hit "next to you" is amazing.

The flow on this is pretty fresh, but that production could use a few tweaks. Not feeling the sample in the chorus either, it's wayyyy too long! Good try though, at least there's an upside with Jone's raps.

I'm pretty biased towards this track. I think Jim Jones is one of the wackest rappers out right now and the fact that he called out Jay-Z is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Soulja Boy may as well beef with NaS. Anyways, the original version of this track was good but Jones brought it down a bit in my opinion.

I think that's the problem. Since it's Jim Jones...people have a biased towards him...even if he became the best rapper in the world. Now...I'm not saying he is....but I do realize he's actually becoming BETTER and more eclectic with his style and what now (Peep his "Day & Night (Remix) w/ Kid Cudi.). The sample is pretty hot...but it's more like the entire original song with rap features than a sample. Overall, the track is not a very good one...cuz isn't it just an old track with two rap verses? I'll give it two stars because it's OK. But in the future y'all, do this guy a favor and have a fresh slate when checking out one of his new songs. If it's garbage...make your voice be heard...but if it's hot or even semi-good...state that...don't let past Jim Jones joints speaks for a new song.

What the hell was this? LOL I'm laughing cause I really feel like this song was worth a one but the song seemed to get better as JJ's verse was ending which still wasn't much. Nevermind, Certified GARBAGE!!!!! Congratulations I don't like rating nothing a 1 but this one has to take the cake and OMG we have been graced with another verse 'the feeling was mutual i mean sensual, extraterrestrial...had me mixing my words like i was dyslexic' Yo Jim drugs are bad, come back down to earth and burn your microphone. Then maybe we can here some good stuff come out of Dipset.

Ehh, not really feeling this one. If you're looking for something similar check out Electric Touch by Kanye and MGMT. It's a mash-up of Touch the Sky and this MGMT song, pretty ill.

I like the song, but I feel it should have had some type of intro. He just jumped in first. I like the production although there could have been a 3rd verse from Jim. Lastly, I appreciate the fact that hes venturing into other types/styles of music and his beat doesn't sound the same as every other rappers.

This song is weird...yeah it's different! I'm feelin the verses (they have a wonderful background music and his flow is good) but not the hook, I don't like those voices who sing. But the music is good in my opinion! It's not my type of song, really, but it's not garbage, either...more of his voice and less hook and this song would have gone in rotation!

Never heard of MGMT, but I think Jim Jones sounds kinda weird on this track (maybe its just me?).

its nice that Jim is branching out and doing new things, and this song is hot, but he's doing what Lil Wayne and Drake did, jumping on other people's songs and making them singles, except Weezy and Drizzy did it for mixtapes.

I'm a rapper and if Jim Jones tried to hop my song and make it his I would say @*#$! no but thats just me.

Does anyone else find it HILARIOUS that instead of coming with his own - new - material, Jones is simply riding others material? Its honestly the perfect plan. If the song flops, it wasn't really his to begin with so no blame needs to be placed. If it takes off (see Pop Champagne), however, Jones looks like a superhero.

* 5 Stars for the musical strategy
* 1 Star for the execution over MGMT's record.

I can't believe MGMT let Jim Jones do this to a great song. He raps for less than half the track. I'm a fan of mixing different genres over rap, but MGMT just does not go well.

I dont really like Jim Jones, but this is a new low for him. There is no production at all in this track, he just raps over the parts MGMT arent singing, and he doesnt even match the tone of the song, i guess he doesnt have more than one tone... The beat could have been adapted to make it look like he was suppoused to be rapping when he is, the verses could be place diffrently so the two verses arent separated by so much singing, but you cant tell hes not even suppoused to be in there. I guess MGMT doesnt even know about this piece of crap song....

I like the original joint without Jones on it, but the flow is indeed O.k., lyrics eazy to write or freestyle or whatever he did to it.
Who ever ssaid Mike Jones is better is just cuz they probably from that section of the States,,,Mike Jones is Trash, Hides behind dope production like Jim Jones,,,,cut the music off, here the lyrics, trash indeed
