I Gotta Gold Digger ('Ye vs. Ray)


It all started in 1954, when a little known artist by the name of Ray Charles (you may have heard of him) dropped a little track by the name of I Got A Woman and it hit number one on the R&B chart. The song was so popular that it has been covered by everyone from the Beatles to John Mayer. Fast forward 51 years to 2005 and yet another song utilizing the harmony is released. This time it is Jamie Foxx on the vocals (changed up from the original) over a Kanye West track you may have heard called Gold Digger. The stage is now set for this mashup.

 Tack on another 11 years (62 years from the original song's release) and you can hear a very smooth fusion of these 2 tracks. The original melody remains throughout the mashup, yet allows 'Ye to do his thing as well. You can sample I Gotta Gold Digger right here and you can also download it for your music collection here. The download features the track as a clean version as well as an extended 8 bar intro & outro (also clean) for the DJ's.

There will be more summer releases coming soon!! Check out the main website at djdiamonddog.com  and be sure to like my page at facebook.com/djdiamonddog for all of my releases and news.
