T.I. – “Swagger Like Us” feat. Kanye West, Jay-Z & Lil’ Wayne
…+ an M.I.A sample? Interesting to say the least.
And coincidentally enough, Japan’s Swagger dropped their fall lookbook recently and their concept is prit-tee ridiculous. See for yourself.

Really good use of the sample. Very solid track.
With all those big names and such a hot M.I.A. track I would have expected more. Much like the Santogold/Pharell/Julian Casablancas collab. imho the whole doesn’t equal the sum of the parts.

There’s a couple dece things in that collection. A hat, a belt, and a hoodie. But as a whole… not impressive.
Once again nothing original from these artists, not expecting anything less these days, the sooner they give up the better.
MIA is better and more relevant than all four of these sellouts, the remix is terrible, stupid…probably a quick ditch effort for these guys to get credibility, they did nothing original or interesting over the song, or with the song
Biggest thing — not one of them gives her credits on the mix, they are so greedy about putiin out someone elses name, I’m sure a lot of it is because she’s a woman, and Sri- Lankan, as well, sexism in sellout commercial rappers continues…
…best advice, buy and listen to MIA’s stuff, everything she does is meaningful, and killer, which is what artists should do when they have influence, not just continue to rap about their personal pornography and their money…
ugh. autotune. wrecks it.

[...] Peep “Swagger Like Us”, which takes the sample from “Paper Planes” and lets Kanye, Jay-Z, TI and Petit Wayne lace their rhymes over it (although, considering the megawattage of the rappers involved, none turn in a particularly inspired verse). Or better yet, download it HERE. [...]
