@rylsdark

I've never seen a remix executed so perfectly. It starts as a random electronic genre music but then suddenly you're starstruck by that famous riff and then you're listening to Black Eyed Peas and then randomly a Drop Build-up kicks in and you know it's gonna be FIRE. The drop is fire, no comments here. Suddenly after the drop ends, you're greeted with the "lady-da-di-dy" part with a different beat but with the same essence, and it develops so well that you're amazed by the song due to it's power, quality and suavity.

@Blob-hs8so
