For all intents and purposes Gore Remix could have been the Song of the Year!
But since it dropped in mid-December it was a little late, however, the song quickly became an anthem as people crossover to 2024.
The song ushered many into New Year as seen on several socials and it was easy to see why.
There is a great deal of talent from the likes of Mr Attention, 216Whisky, Voltz JT, Poptain, Holy Ten, Kae Chaps, Kikky Badass, Master H and Shone.
All these rappers are making waves and some of them took the chance throw punches at their erstwhile friends.
And the debate over who nailed the song has already started on social media but that is a story for another day.
The year 2023 had been dominated by Holy Ten since he teamed up with Michael Magz and also after their infamous split.
But when Gore dropped it somehow overshadowed all the good songs released in 2024 including the Ghettocracy by Winky D released on 31 December 20223 which until now nobody knows the playlist. This again, is a story for another day.
My take on Gore Remix is that while it is laden with talent it is almost always feels like over kill.
Like all remixes including last year’s Fire Emoji, the Blaqboi Di Don executive-produced Gore Remix surpassed the original song that only featured little known Mr Attention.
But the excitement that usually comes with the remix is who nailed it and who killed who.
And this is what makes it all the more enjoyable.
So on Gore Remix besides the featured artists proving their mettle they also threw punches at each other left, right and centre.
And fans are already anticipating more from the artists especially those that promised fireworks this year Voltz JT, Master H and Kae Chaps are some of the artists who fired warning shots.
But on the whole Gore Remix is a great party song and easily the hit of the moment!
