Jay-Z ft Lil Wayne – Summer in Brooklyn (Quincy Jones Cookin Soul Remix)

Big up to Cookin Soul, as usual they deliver the goods. Best remix of “Hello Brooklyn”to this date.  A new reuse of Quincy Jones “Summer in the City”, there have been a huge stack of songs using that very same sample during the years, like Dj Spinna, the Roots, Black Moon, Nightmares on wax etc, etc – the list goes on and on, but i am really glad someone put it into such a nice context and made a real great vid to it. Enjoy this fine summer wine.
