T-Bayn

Here to remind youze lot that the only people in the rap trade who should ever be allowed to remake T-Pain songs all hail from Oakland. Neither of these remixes of T-Pain singles were official but J. Valentine & Bailey's Go Dumb was the definitive alternate-version of I'm Sprung, while Ezale's Too High made the official remix of Up Down unnecessary:

J. Valentine & Bailey - Go Dumb
(From Bailey & J. Valentine's Hide Ya Breezy mixtape; 2006)



Ezale - Too High
(From Drug Funnie mixtape; 2013)


PS: Bailey's Fuck Yo' Couch is still the best Dave Chappelle-inspired rap song ever. Rumour has it Dave bailed on the 3rd season of The Chappelle Show because he was shook in case Bailey bodied him with his own concept again. True story, swear down etc.

I want a remake of Let Your Hair Down by Kehlani & Nef The Pharaoh. It would be a modern day take on Rapunzel where Prince Nef eventually wins Princess Kehlani's heart by getting her laptop back from those lads who stole it and then made those 2 cold-ass ransom note songs.

"Too High" makes the original "Up Down" an afterthought too.

Nah, they're both equally great and both exist in different universes.

I'll say one thing, though - Too High was 2014's most realistic slap about drug binges.

I've never heard of Kehlani but that Laptop song is amazing. Need a new Ezale tape more than any other artist right now.

Most ruthless dis song of this decade so far?

FWU by Kehlani is my shit.
