Beyonce Flips “Hollywood” from Kingdom Come

Beyonce flipped “Hollywood” from Jay-Z’s Kingdom Come by taking Jay-Z’s verses off the song for her B’Day re-release. The original version of Hollywood was such a hot song, and I don’t feel like this version holds up. The first two minutes are pretty lazy with a barely discernible verse…it sounds like someone just took out Jay-Z’s rap and just left her ad-libs. In the last thirty seconds it sounds like she finally realized that this is supposed to be a song and picked up the pace. If she had done that the entire song, it would’ve been much hotter. With that said…it’s still a cool song, but totally unnecessary.

What do you think about Beyonce’s remake? Is this version better than the original?

    Track is crap…just like 99% of Beyonces music. How many flipping lazy productions did her father pay for?
