K. Sparks - Blue Swing (Remix)
Artist: K. Sparks
Featuring: Beyond Belief , Jabee
Producer: T-Mos
Album: Social Studies EP
Label: Unsigned
If there’s one thing better than taking a stroll to your local park and hopping on a swing on a sunny afternoon, it’s heading to the playground with a couple good friends to relive your respective childhoods and/or hold long-distance swing-jumping competitions without fear of getting caught by a teacher. (I can’t be the only one who did that.) K. Sparks clearly knows what I’m talking about – on the newly-released remix to the massively reader-acclaimed Blue Swing, the Queens native enlists a few talented homies for an exhilarating yet (thanks to T-Mos’ jazz-piano production) ultra-chill lyrical free-for-all. In addition to familiar faces Beyond Belief, Jabee and Logics (of ArtOfficial fame), DMV native Gripz tags along for the ride; the result is so jam-packed with on-point lyricism that I’d be hard-pressed to pick a favorite line or verse – what do you think, Booth readers? And does this remix eclipse the original? Whatever your opinion, you’ll want to keep it locked for the latest on Sparks and T-Mos’ Social Studies EP. Also, watch for the DJBooth-presented first installment of Sparks’ new mixtape Trilogy, set to hit our front page June 15!

 T-Mos and K. Sparks were born to make music together. Were they born to make music with the three guest emcees on board this remix? I'm not exactly sure about that (nobody flows as smooth as Sparks does over a T-Mos beat), but each are impressive individually.
There is a lot to like here, so enjoy the six-minute ride.

Production is nice, but not to my liking. Not a big fan of K. Sparks, flow's not that enjoyable to me.

Another Spizzy banger. I want to rate 4 and a half but I'll round up and make it an even 5.

As if the original wasn't good enough, this one contains verses from both Logics and Beyond Belief. That alone easily makes it better than the first. Gripz really wasn't needed in this track. His voice was not to my liking.He rapped over the bars from the original and could have at least spit something new. Beyond Belief and Logics are always great additions to throw in. Jabee, who I have never heard of as of this track, spit a pretty sick verse. K. Sparks was the grand finale of an already Near-Classic track. Coming in with a new verse, I wasn't disappointed. Solid Remix.

Wow forget that last comment. I must have dozed off a little on Gripz part. His verse wasn't original and was actually pretty enjoyable.

Loved the original, and since Gripz blew me away with 100 Bar ABC's I knew I'd love this one too. Probably gonna get shot for this but I think this is a more star studded lineup then the Beamer Benz Bentley Remix (Mad love for banks and luda but the others are annoyin me). No one disappoints here and I like how they all get a piece of the chorus. Definitely cant wait for this EP to drop.

I believe I have profess my love for the original and production is still scoring some orgasmic proportion in my music book. Everyone delivers and verses sustains your interest for 6+ minutes. Can't go lower than what I rated the original.

Damn this is soooo dope! The lyrics are legit, and im loving the jazz backdrop. All artists came hard, but the first verse stands out to me.

Always impressed by Sparks! Love the vibe of this joint right here! Its kind of funny how the booth posted two remixes at the same time. and the listeners are feeling the underground record, than the mainstream record. Hummm....Something weird about that???
