International Players Athem - UGK (Ft. Outkast)

Video's all ove the internet at the moment, but i just can't get that andre3000 verse out of my head.

Now,
Ages ago there were rumours of Kanye West doing some work with John Mayer.. it then came about that the track was called "Bittersweet", Late Registration came, yet the track never appeared.. Kanye then slated it for release on "Graduation", and yesterday, finally, it appeared. Both completely nail it lyrically.

MP3: Kanye West (Ft. John Mayer) - Bittersweet

And purely because I found this earlier and had never heard it before... so unless I missed it the first time round, here's the Japanese bonus track off "Late Registration".
