Pretty Lights - Empire State of Mind - Remix


So this is too easy. It's too simple. Tony CoffeeCakes put it best, it's almost embarrassing to post it because it seems too easy. Why didn't I know about this sooner? Why didn't anyone do this sooner? Is this a layup? Is it just too simple to even be worthy of a post? Well, it's worthy. And for whatever reason it's only fitting that it gets dropped on the anniversary of that fateful night when Biggie was taken down in Los Angeles, 14 years to the day. Not incredibly new, but not incredibly old. Just when you thought you were done hearing the New York anthem which has seemingly been on loop in every Impala and Honda that rolls by you on the street, it gets a rework from our boy Pretty Lights, who is quickly becoming the go to hip hop impresario. It's so simple, yet so  effective. I don't really need to say much else other than Rest In Peace Biggie, you are still missed.
