"The record started off a freestyle, then the traction went real major." Swizz could be heard telling MTV. "Being that I've got a relationship with Coldplay already - I've worked with them a while back - I was like, I wanna turn it into a real record."
"I took care of the legal side. I'm about to shoot a video to that. Plus, that's where I wanna be at musically anyway. The remix is gonna be crack."
