Mariah Carey tapped the always entertaining Dream for a remix to “Touch My Body”. This song has kind of grown on me…there are parts of the lyrics that are hilarious and other parts that are just odd…however, adding Dream to the track is an upgrade. Click here to listen
Lupe Fiasco has a remix to “Superstar” featuring Matthew Santos, Young Jeezy, and T.I. Young Jeezy is an automatic step down as soon as he starts rapping. He is not the right person to lead off this song. On the other hand T.I. adds some hotness to the track. Click here to listen
What do you guys think of these remixes? Upgrades or downgrades?

I totally disagree… but what’s new? Young Jeezy’s verse on this remix is FIRE! Jeezy has had some of the most memorable guest verses over the last few months, especially here in the South. I like how Lupe isn’t afraid to alienate the backpackers who stan him and pegs a self-nominated hustler like Jeezy for his remix. His entire verse is about himself, but the song is about being superstar and he does what he does best: rap about himself…
Not to mention Lupe’s CRAZY verse and T.I. bars on someone unnamed who is no longer apart of his crew (snitchin bodyguard?!?)… The remix is fire as is.
the dream, with all his creativity, adds nothing really to the original. the remix is really boring and leaves a lot to be desired. i agree the song has grown mad quick on me too in the past few weeks getting a lot of play.
what is so “hilarious” about the mariah lyrics?
I think the references to a sex tape not ending up on youtube (yeah right!) or “all up in my business like a Wendy interview” is pretty funny.
still hate the Mariah song, still lame and kinda corny, i expected a lot more from her hyped return
and i disagree too, i think Jeezy was GETTING IT!!! he came strong and set the tone of the song with his energy (but no one really matched his intensity, so i think it peaked in the beginning with jeezy)
but i do think its a lil contradictory for jeezy to be on the track given what he usually raps about and the meaning of the song… but i think he made it hot… TI didnt really move me with his verse
I like the Mariah song. Its catchy and a nice grown lyrics. The video is different for sure.. .. Migrate was another good song but Mariah said it wouldn’t be a single, its not commercial enough. The best remix of Touch my body is with Rick Ross not the dream
