Remix over C.R.E.A.M

So, Wyclef, Akon and Lil Wayne all got together and decided to make a track, 'Sweetest Girl' referencing Wu-Tang's C.R.E.A.M 'Cash Rules Everything Around Me'.
Take a look:




But then...they go and make a remix, and Rae even decides to jump on it...check it out:






Now...WHY would they do this?! The original track 'Sweetest Girl' is fine.
I'm not so sure I like this remix over the C.R.E.A.M beat. They shouldn't have messed with it.
What are your thoughts? Do you like the remix?

New Ice Cube

Ice Cube - Gangsta Rap Me Do It














This is the first track off the new Ice Cube album due for release this year.



It is officially the first good rap song of 2008. Ice Cube uses his art to comment on some of the most controversial events of the past year and he does so well. Despite roles in films such as “Are We There Yet” Cube remains a powerful figure in the rap game. He comes strong on this track showing he still has that hunger, which I’m happy to see:)

Thanks to my bro!
