Close to three months ago DJ Premier got the job of composing a fusion of classical music and boom-bap hip-hop with the help of The Berkleey Sympony Orchestra, titled "Re:Generation" which was both a dope and very original track that showed Preem's versitality. Also invited to the session was none other than one of the true G.O.A.T.'s of hip-hop history in the form of Nas; making this the third collabo these two legends has participated in together since "New York State Of Mind Pt. 3" and later "Classic (Better Than I've Ever Been)". Prior to "Re:Generation" these two greats has collaborated on maybe ten songs - all superior moments in both the emcees and producers extended catalouge..
As the official screening for the documentary of the same name begins today, Apathy of Demigodz fame has put his own spin on this already crazy joint. Matter of fact, it even features an exclusive verse by Apathy himself and the beat is darker than its predecessor. What do y'all think about this? - Not many have the nerve to remix DJ Premier's work for the reason that it's almost impossible to improve on his original mixings. This is pretty tough though so make sure to check it.
