Livewire - "Theraflu" IMS Remix

Payola is nothing new. We all know that if you want to get spins from the top working DJs, not even talking radio play, you need to come up with some money. Long gone are the days of DJs just playing a record because they like it. Long gone are the days of DJs wanting to break a record. They just want to be the first to play a record.

Livewire addresses the issue in his IMS DJs remix of "Theraflu." The instrumental is about as simple as it gets musically but Livewire gives a master class in lyricism over it. With the emphatic, "Tell DJs to stop actin' like bitches in New York" the Brooklyn MC makes it very clear that he's unafraid to challenge any and everyone necessary to gain the exposure he's due.

Livewire - "Dat Kid Cray" (Paris Remix)" Music Video

Here's the challenge - figure out where Livewire is in this new video for his Paris remix. See, what had happened was, he took off without telling anyone to shoot a music video for the sole purpose of letting fans know that he is not kidding when he says, "In my prime, I really am. Gotta ***** crossing the Prime Meridian. I don't even know what time or city I'm in." He came back, edited the footage himself and dropped it on us without warning. Awesome!

Steadily building anticipation for his "No Label 2" album, Livewire is working in overdrive to up the ante from "No Label." If the single, "Winning" featuring Joe Budden is any guage of what's to come then we know it's will off the chains. No pun intended. Ok, it was. Sue me.
