Common

Rap artists Common, KRS-One, and Q-Tip are remaking a few of their classic tracks in collaboration with Smirnoff, as the vodka brand launches a new series of mix drinks later this month.

Meanwhile, hit producers DJ Premier, Just Blaze, and Cool & Dre are providing beats for the promotional project.

Just Blaze is remixing Common’s 2000 song “The Light,” DJ Premier will work on KRS-One’s 1988 hit “I’m Still #1,” and Cool & Dre are remaking Q-Tip’s 1999 party track “Vivrant Thing.”

All of the artists will perform live at the Smirnoff launch party on Feb. 26th, and each remake will be available afterwards for free download on Smirnoff.com.

^n!gga look libation is a cultural tradition of original people! libation,food,herb,music all go hand and hand.just about any classic album you name from just about any ganre of music thats been made,liquor played a part in the creative process.ive been a studio engineer for for over 16 years,n!ggaz get faded while recording.just as long as you dont allow alcohol to become a hinderance to your every day gitty-up,wine is fine! smirnoff cut the checks!!!! drink responsibly.
