AceShowbiz - The remixed version of Kanye West's new single "Power" has been out for fans' listening pleasure. Having additional lines from Swizz Beatz, the revamped track also features Jay-Z who can be heard name-checking Taylor Swift in the audio stream.
First, the Roc Nation founder who has previously defended Kanye over his infamous MTV VMAs stage crash gives advice to young musicians. "F**k all these labels/ F**k what everyone wants from you," he raps before warning that they're trying to "Axl Rose you/ Welcome to the Jungle." Then, he spits verses about being "in search of the truth/ Even if it goes through Taylor Swift."
After Jay-Z says music industry might not be too friendly for some people, Kanye urges fans to take chances and make their own path. "Grab a camera, shoot a viral/ Huh? Take the power in your own hands/ I'm a grown man, doin' my grown dance," he suggested, giving a nod to Internet as a self-promotional platform.
