[Listen] Dev Remixes New Single With T-Pain!
Already? What it appears to be the official 'remix' to American electro-pop singer Dev's new single "Naked", featuring none other than auto-tune king T-Pain, surfaced online earlier this week - The track was produced by Dev's buddies, production team The Cataracs, it's destined to be one of 2012's top club hits, and will officially impact on US radios next January 17th. First of all I gotta say I think "Naked" is too FIRE. Ever since it premiered back in December last year, I've jamming it a lot...A LOT. For me, 'Naked' is superior to 'In the Dark', and so it will prove once it gets to worldwide listeners' ears in the coming weeks. For real, the beat, Dev's voice, the lyrics, the catchiness, this song is too much to handle. Dev is gonna smash with 'Naked' this year. She won't even need to put another single out! You'll see!
Now as for the recently leaked 'remix'. At first I thought it was some T-Pain joke. I thought he had downloaded the original featuring Enrique Iglesias, and with some studio work, he had removed Iglesias' vocals and inserted his. But then I saw Dev re-tweeting the following "New Beats Daily: @DEVisHot Ft. @TPAIN- 'Naked'"...so certainly she was aware of this new version. What is it for though? Is her label planning to send the one featuring Enrique to mainstream radios, and the one with T-Pain to urban/rhythmic formats? Either way, I do like both versions. T-Pain blended in pretty well with the song's tone. But the original with Enrique Iglesias stays the best for me, sorry! And I really hope that's the one that gets promoted, and Enrique is the one appearing in the music video, otherwise I'll be very upset. Here's for a great 2012 Dev! You and 'Naked' are gonna SLAAAAAAY.
