Kind of a weird remix but Kanye killed it. Thumbs up.

Hip-hop heads, DJs and fans alike are buzzing about the Kanye West/Justin Bieber/Raekwon collabo.

According to Rae himself, 'Ye and Bieber are currently en route to New York to make good on this weekend's Twitter love fest.

"Yall asked for it now we're gonna deliver," the Chef tweeted.

DJ Scream of Atlanta’s Hot 107.9 (and the region’s elite mixtape DJ) thinks that the collaboration could be huge.

"Even if it’s the wackest record ever created, it’s still a big record because you got the biggest pop star out right now, a hip-hop legend and a current hip-hop superstar. So you gotta at least give it a chance people. It could be the next big pop hit or it could be just a conversation piece."

He added, "I understand where the hip-hop purists might be coming from and I can imagine what their comments are. I wasn’t a big fan of the Kanye, Beyonce and Charlie Wilson record, but let’s hear it and if it’s garbage, then let’s talk about it then, but let them work."

Music journo Jozen Cummings calls the potential jam "a great look for music as a whole."

"Today's fan isn't as concerned about genres as they are about acts. As artists, they should be free to do what they want," he said.

But he’s still hoping that the song actually makes sense musically.

"I hope it sounds like something only Raekwon, Kanye, and Bieber can do. The last thing I want to hear is a verse from 'Ye, a verse from Rae, and Justin on the hook with a bridge. Any two rappers and a singer can do that. They need to make sure the song sounds as unique and different in the studio as it does on paper."

New York Hot 97’s DJ Bobby Trends says "I can see myself playing it on the radio…would love to hear [it] first…anyone can flop."

But, he knows it’s unlikely that this record will disappoint.

"I definitely think that this collaboration makes sense and can't wait to hear it. Three different generation artists together bring three different generation listeners…[I’m a] big Raekwon fan, I see Bieber’s hustle and whatever Kanye touches is usually spectacular!"

It's official!

After Justin and Kanye flirted over collaborating a couple of days ago, Raekwon has confirmed that he will be producing a remix for Runaway Love featuring Kanye and himself. I'm disappointed they are not making a totally new song and I can't imagine what kind of remix will come out of it because I really don't see Runaway Love as the type of song you would imagine Kanye on or even the type of song that Raekwon would even produce. Fingers crossed that it is gonna be a hot remix.

Wow! How cool is that?
I think a collaboration between Justin and Kanye is now pretty much for sure.

Can't wait. A beat like Gold Digger would be hot!

Kanye West and Justin Bieber exchanged a series of tweets over the weekend. The two praised each other's music and Kanye then proposed a possible collaboration with the 16-year-old pop singer and another fellow artist Raekwon.

It began with Kanye's message, "Listening to @Justin Bieber 'Run Away love' ... I love Sunday mornings in the crib." Later, he added, "But I have listened to Runaway Love about 10 times so far ... ironically I got a song called Runaway on my new album too."

The rap mogul's tweets didn't go unnoticed by Justin. The young singing sensation quickly responded with a thank-you post to his senior, "It's not a so what moment for me. I'm 16 and a fan. I'm kinda hyped u are listening to my stuff. Thank u. Nice sunday morning."

After learning that they are a fan of each other, Kanye mentioned a possible duet, "Maybe we can do something together. Me, You and Raekwon." Justin replied, "Me, u, and the chef 2gether on a song = EPIC. haha. might sound crazy 2 u but even having this convo is living the dream. Thanks."
