There’s been a lot of “Lemonade” bootlegs, edits, and remixes in this past couple of months, and they’re all good to some extent, though that’s mostly accredited to how catchy the original is, and I think all the producers who have remixed it would agree. Chicago producer Seablaze is the latest, turning the bubbles and the vocals into straight up juke. This remix feels simultaneously like the biggest departure from the original, but also, largely because of the preservation rather than chopping up of the vocals, the most like the original. That simultaneous working with the track but fitting it into another genre rather than creating another genre-less version puts “Lemonade” in a new container. It’s the same, but we appreciate it totally differently. Like how smoking a bong and smoking a joint are totally different experiences. It’s all about that container.
