mary j blige - mvp / cassidy ft mary j blige - i'm a hustla rmx

ok sometimes i think it's endless industry complacency and a probable network of grizzled old-timer djs with their hiphop-soul 90s glory days that allows mjb to instantly get buzz for stuff like this, but it's also coz she actually bothers innit. mary bothers to make the connections and bothers to love (in the case of "mvp") "hate it or love it" enuff so she can spin it full of r'n'b goodness and bothers to make bold choices - come on, you never thought she was gonna be on the "hustla" rmx! it hasn't just got pretend hard drums like "lose my breath"! and it's a bold choice that comes off too; there's a back and forth type section with cassidy that is just like, yeaaaahhhh i should have known she would kill it like this! (also swizz refs his early o.t.t. programming with a one-bar doubletime flurry like wot he used to do on every song ever, cool!) sorry i doubted.
