Looks like Diddy is going to ride the Dirty Money train until the wheels fall off. Since Last Train To Paris was finally released and well received, Diddy has been doing everything he can to keep things going. He has released more videos, dropped a mixtape, and everyone knows he loves a good remix. But is this one of any quality? The production here is hot. It has a heavy hitting bass, a variety of sound affects, and a very intense vibe at work. Basically it mirrors the original, but is a tad louder. The hook is the same as the original as well. Lyrically the hook is fine, but the delivery could use some work. The vocals sound rushed together, making it hard to understand what is being said. Also, the production gets a little over powering during the hook. Blending/pacing everyone's parts better and dialing back the production a bit, would improve the hook a great deal. The verses are fair and feature the only new addition to the remix. Rick Ross kicks things off and contributes the new portion of the song. Trey Songz comes in next, followed by Dawn & Kaleena, and then Diddy finishes things off. Ross, Songz, and the ladies were on point. They all came with clean swagger filled deliveries and solid lyrics. Diddy on the other hand was slacking a bit. His swagger was a bit too much and his lyrics were mediocre at best. He could have toned down the aggressive attitude and stepped his creavitiy up a notch. Overall, this song is okay. It's worth listening to at least once but not more than that. Ross's part doesn't make or break the track, so there is no real reason to stop spinning the original. But don't just take the review at face value. Click the link and make your own decision.
