Who Invented the Remix? 10 of the Best Remixed Songs in Hip Hop & R&B
“I Wanna Be Down Remix” by Brandy – featuring MC Lyte, Yo-Yo & Queen Latifah
Just my opinion, but this might be one of the best remixes ever recorded. It changed a bubbly teenage-love affair type track into a Hot but sophisticated take on professing lust for a good man. The lyrics from all three MCs are memorize-worthy, and Brandy had her vocals on point of course. The video for the remix, directed by Hype Williams and dipped in black and white with a few instances of technicolor, is just as enjoyable as the song (though we could have lived without seeing Ray-J). Loves it!
