Sorry for the late notice.. just sending off my entry and thought to share this link here for anyone that wants to whip something together in the next 48 hours or so..

I spent a good while on my remix and think it really compliments Joey's delivery... check it out if you got a minute

nice work St. Kelly you put a lot of work into that...congrats. Hope you get some recognition.....maybe work on the intro a little, not wild about the cymbal crash...would fade the sample a little sometimes...seems to jar a little sometimes, harmonically...1.15 ish...drop out at 2.11 is good by 4.21 it's getting tired.....but really good work. You still got 48 hrs........sure some other folks, who aren't submitting a remix, will give some more input.

^you're exactly on point.. those points were frustrating me, and possible the 4:20'ish area could be improved with drum programming changes..

i'm not trying to say it can't be fixed with the beat, but unfortunately, there's short comings "in the flow" at those areas (and others) which are the root of the problem.. i do feel i addressed some parts that stood out a lot more in the original by changing the drum timing according the "flow" .. but that 4:20 really pisses me off ("I pay of him like an object/ no matter how right I am in court, I can't object") .. just sounds like an awkward punch in or something

thx for such specific pointers!!
