R3K seems to have a serious knack for remixing strong female vocalitst with male rappers. First was the Florence/Kid Cudi marriage, and I just stumbled upon this other track featuring Lil’ Wayne and Imogen Heap. Sampling vocals from Lil’ Wayne’s “Swag Surfin” and transferring them on top of Heap’s “Just For Now,” the output is brimming with synthesized perfection. Lil’ Wayne’s gravelly rapping almost becomes white noise, leaving the focus on Imogen’s lusciously symphonic floating vocals. (via Indie Shuffle)
Personally I like the background sample more than actual Wayne track but it doesn't matter. It reminds me so much of Clams Casino's version but chopped differently. Both together sounds dope anyway. A song with great flow but with an even better beat in totality. Easily one of the best remixes/mash-ups up for grabs.
