Wale + Lady Gaga + Wideboys

I got sick of "Chillin" pretty quickly. I got sick of the successive Benzi and Skratch Bastid remixes even faster. While Wale has released some great mix tapes (100 Miles & Running and The Mixtape About Nothing), his latest commercial effort with Allido/Interscope is less than memorable. Where is the dude who rapped about spreading go-go music, wearing camo shorts and flip-flops with a Grammy dangling around his neck (to clarify: I do not support go-go music in any way)? Where others have failed to remix this into a memorable drop, Wideboys have given this track energy and a progression that is catchier than a Taylor Swift hook.
