Mavado and DJ Khaled have teamed up for the monstrous megamix of hit single Welcome to My Hood.
The original version of Welcome to My Hood features Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Plies and T-Pain but DJ Khaled gathered an all-star cast for the remix that reads like a who’s who of rap over the last decade.
Mavado lines up with rappers Ludacris, T-Pain, Busta Rhymes, Twista, Birdman, Ace Hood, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Bun B, Game and Waka Flocka Flame on the remix, with Mavado arriving fifth on the track.
In a release, DJ Khaled said "Everybody’s saying they love Mavado’s verse, I’m a big fan of Mavado’s and his flava on the record just adds that different edge,"
Plans are already underway for a video to be shot for the remix, which is a staggering seven minutes long, but since Mavado is currently unable to travel to the US his part will be specially shot in Jamaica by a local director and slotted in.
"It’s a great feeling to be on a record with such a list of stars and It helps position my career right in the mainstream as the record is getting airplay on radio in America already," Mavado said.
He is also going to be featured on Ace Hoods’ new album.
