It sounds ghetto. I guess that's what Gwen was going for going for. So hooray Gwen, you can put out ghetto remixes in attempts to gain favor by the urban market.
well Shakira released a hip-hop remix of "Hips Don't Lie" which was hot. But yeah it does irritate me that Gwen keeps working with hip-hop producers and stuff to get another Hollaback Girl and gain urban/rhythmic play. But TSE original already gets plays there anyway so this should only kick it up.
Strict Machine? Which part is slowed down? If you mean the part where she says "if i could escape..." that sounds exactly like the original.
