New York is in the building on Mysonne's new remix, which features new verses from Dave East, Fabolous, and Raekwon. The beat remains unchanged, with a simple looped violin line, old-school drums, and a vocal sample that sounds like a DJ is about to drop something circa-2002. The track is gritty, raw, and pure hip-hop, especially when you factor in Mysonne's choice to bring in a fellow veteran presence like Raekwon and Fab. Everyone holds their own, but Wu-Tang soldier Rae delivers a standout verse, capping off the track on a high note.
Quotable Lyrics
God bless Carter, resting in a powerful spot now you a martyr
My thoughts got darker, sword named Arthur
The carpenter, stay under cars and creep up to blow flames through your partner
Look you up and down when I pop ya,
Just like the Joker when he dead Batman's father
