Do Remixes Ruin Creativity in Hip-Hop?

[neils7147933]

I like the Loungin' remix with LL Cool J and Jade, the SWV/Michael Jackson hybrid Right Here Human Nature Remix, the second I Need a Girl version.

I actually preferred the first One More Chance (had it memorized back in high school...lol) and the original California Love, too...

it depends. a lot of remixes bring new beats, new verses, new artist added on. so its all good. but i despise the ones where the original artist spits the same verse over the same beat.

I used to think remixes were garbage, but now its whatever. Their are some remixes that are just better than the original song. It gives us an opportunity to hear the same song with a different beats with different collaborations. Here are my fave remixes:

Flava in ya Ear- Craig Mack feat. Notorious B.I.G., LL Cool J, Rampage, and Busta Rhymes
Only You- 112 feat. Notorious B.I.G. and Ma$e
I Made Ya Look- Nas feat. Ludacris and Jadakiss
Ruff Ryders Anthem-DMX feat. Ruff Ryders
Neva Scared- Bonecrusher feat. Cam'Ron, Busta Rhymes and a bunch of people whos names I dont immediate recall.
Damn- Youngbloodz feat. Ludacris and Bonecrusher
Freakin'- Jodeci feat. Method Man and Raekwon

[BLOODSHED]

That was a great remix...

you got good taste.

Remixes are good only when done right (of coursE), but the south has spammed remixes with that crap "chopped and screwed."
