REMIXES: JANETJACKSON, MICHELLE WILLIAMS & NE-YO....

Remixes are often done to generate more interest in a song so that it does better on the charts or to enable the song to attract certain types of audience. You can now check out three remixes from Michelle Williams, Janet Jackson and Ne-yo.

♫ Michelle Williams feat. Flo-Rida - We Break the Dawn (Remix)
The remix fails to do the original justice. It has more of an urban tone than the original but still maintains its mainstream edge, whereas the original is pure synth-pop. The production is different, but the beat is kind of blah. It features Flo Rida and is produced by DJ Montay/Oomp Camp. I still anticipate Michelle's album Unexpected this coming August.

♫ Janet Jackson - Can't Be Good (Red Rat Remix)
Supposedly, this awful remix will appear on the re-release of Janet's gravely ill album Discipline. Using Redman's trademark 'Oh no!', it certainly comes in handy for something like this. I hate Redman and EVERYTHING he touches. Redman gives the track a slight urban touch since he's providing the song with a little dancehall vibe. Some kind of ritual will probably be needed to bring the album back from the dead and unfortunately, this remix just won't do it. I personally think the single choice to release Can't Be Good put the nail in the coffin for the album entirely. 2Nite and Rollercoaster were great contendars for radio, but oh well. Damage has been done. It's a shame, because Discipline was a hot album that had major potential.

♫ Ne-yo feat. Casely - Closer (Remix)
As stated previously I hate the song, but this remix is okay. It features Casely. I really dig Casely's contribution to the song. Other than that, the song is lacking and very forgettable.
