It is safe to say k-os is one of the most expansive hip-hop artists, constantly improving his music with new sounds and initiatives. This obviously inspired buzzing producer Kaytranada, as he has taken to the 2004 Joyful Rebellion cut “Crucial”. Bringing about his signature production skills, Kay smooths things out for this underground masterpiece. On Kaytranada’s Soundcloud, he urges k-os not to sue him for snagging his original. I have a feeling the Canadian artist will back off on this one, considering how damn slick it came out.
Listen to the “Crucial” remix below.
IT’S COOL BUT DOESN’T COME CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL. IT LOSES THAT ACOUSTIC FEEL THAT THE OG HAD.
