Creating in Web 2.0? [101.13]

In the world of user-generated content, each one of us is capable of becoming an overnight sensation. As we observe, discuss, and analyze Web 2.0, we will start to unravel what it means to live in Web 2.0. But mostly—as this is above all a writing course—from the first day of class, we will compose an exploration of the many forms and types of media that make up our daily experiences. In doing so, we will compose a living record of the what it means to create and compose in Web 2.0.

Drake Ft. Alicia Keys - Unthinkable (Remix)

Original Song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54kFhfxi-1U

I chose this remix because this song in my opinion, is much better and more popular than the original by Alicia Keys alone. Drake was the hottest rapper at the time this song was created and adding him to the song made it much more popular. You probably wouldn't hear the original song ever again on radio after the remix was made. What makes this remix better than the original is the little bit of rap that Drake brings into the R&B song. Mixing it up makes it more interesting. Even after Drake's verse, he is still singing along in the background which blends smoothly with Alicia Keys voice.

Vincent, I see what you're saying about this remix. This traditional remix with Drake's remix was created to sell albums and make millions! But do you think you could find something a little more in line with user-generated content? Thanks!
