Kanye West has organized an unexpected musical collaboration, recruiting Wu-Tang Clan's Raekwon the Chef to rhyme on a remix of Justin Bieber's "Runaway Love." Bieber is 16 years old, the age at which Raekwon started smoking the crack-laced marijuana cigarettes called "woolies." But Rae told MTV's Shaheem Reid that the verse he recorded for the track is age-appropriate for Bieber's presumably less experienced tween audience. "I can go basic when I want to. I can go rated R, I can go rated PG. I definitely didn't give him anything that I thought was too hot to be spoken on by a 16-year-old... One thing people gotta recognize about me, I'm the Chef. I know how to make spicy food, I know how to make food that ain't spicy. I made something that fit the criteria." Certainly, that's good. But if the world had a better sense of humor, Bieber would be sitting in a bathtub of milk for the video, sucking his thumb.

In other Kanye remix news, a new version of the great "Power" single has just come out. It features an introductory verse from Jay-Z and an unfortunate reinterpolation of the original chorus, replacing the wonderful vocal snippet from King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man," with a clunky, much less wonderful recording of the phrase, "No one man should have all that power..." But then it breaks, and switches to a new beat that samples Snap's "I Got The Power," and Kanye's new verses are passionate and exciting. He's doing really good right now.
