Originally featured back in November of ‘08, O’Neal McKnight‘s propulsive, dancefloor-packing Champagne Red Lights was praised by many in the Booth for its energy and creativity.  On this sequel/remix, released last weekend, the story is pretty much the same—McKnight puts on his freshest duds, climbs into his whip, and heads to the club for some bottle-popping action—as is Cass & Dubs‘s production; for Pt. II of this epic saga, though, the coat-checking up-and-comer’s brought a brand new pair of high-profile wingmen along for the ride; while EtherBoy Ron Browz takes the record to new heights of Autotuned inebriation on his hard-drinking, single-plugging guest verses, Busta‘s rapid-fire rhymes are arguably this remix’s biggest asset.  Regardless, this version is sure to please fans of the original, and may help McKnight’s debut LP, Prom 2088, secure a solid release date.

Nice elecric feel but this is packed with a lot of autotone which is a bad thing if its not T-Pain. Busta Rhymes was decent but I think he shaped his lyrics to match the song so he couldnt reach his full potential. Hook is not that good and Ron Browz sounds off beat a lot. Decent song almost a 1 though ..1.5 stars i will be nice and round up

This version is WAY better than the original! I actually really loved this. Busta was smooth and Ron Browz snapped (especially when he went acapella). This is like the first song I actually liked him on. O'Neal had a club hit on his hands. He needs a video for this pronto. PRONTO!

I don't know, I'm not really feeling the beat or this dude on the autotune! Busta, on the other hand, brings a badly needed high energy to this track! I hate this RON BROWZ dude! I wish he would literally JUMP OUT THE WINDOW on this one! He is terrible! There's not enough Busta on here to save this one...

I've said it before... see the original version... and I'll say it again: this is a hit. Go to a club and feel the undeniable vibe this gives off. I even like Browz on this track - and I haven't said that too much.

This song is so on point, "I'm something like a phenomenon", busta killed, and ron browz like MH said went crazy and ripped the end of this out of know where hahaha he def just got points from me. Ron browz is bringing some nice material out, pretty much everything i heard from him is rockin.

catchy! I haven't heard the original but this song is nice. While Ron Browz isn't good for every song, he works really well for this song. Bussa Buss!

aint feelin it at all, if you want this type of beat without all that autotune mess check out XVs mixtape, it puts this stuff to shame. i like ron and busta but dudes need to switch it up before they turn to another weezy, ruining tracks with that autotune bs, even though busta aint usin it, he still on mad tracks that have it.

I think I prefer the original over this one. I find this one a little all over the place compared to the original.

Too "techno-ish" for me. Ron Browz is garboso...worse than Soulja Boy could ever be. At least SB doesn't swagger jack with the Auto Tune. Busta is the only one who actually sounds decent with the beat. I don't give too many 1* ratings, but man...this is garbage.

This was actually alright. Ron Browz snapped when he went acapella and Busta was decent.

I like the vibe, totally unreal. Can't tell whose voices are authentic, but that just adds to the overall feel. I can see this making people move in the club, and I gotta like any club song that isn't generic. 4*

I def agree wit Baer, you can just hear the auto-tune buzzing way too much on this one. And again, does Ron Browz know what a melody is. Dude just hangs on one note, which is only in tune because of an electronic device. Anyway O'neal was a little better, but kinda stuck on the same note too and his lyrics weren't interesting. I do think the production is cool to dance to, just keep the vocals out of it. I can't say nothin bad about Busta tho, I always feel his vibe and flow.

I wish it was just a Busta track, cuz I think he is only one who can flow on a crazy beat like this. The audio effects kinda kill it.

Too much AutoTune for me but you gotta hear this song in a club...on a club system. I've played it twice and energy of the place lights up! Agree with Macli wish it was a Busta only track.
