The R3HAB remix of Steven Malcolm’s juggernaut of a track, ‘Fuego’, sees the Dutch DJ/producer breathing new life into the collaboration between rising hip hop star, Steven Malcolm, and dancehall legend, Shaggy.
Originally a song which honoured Steven and Shaggy’s multicultural heritage, this new remix brings mystery and energy to the song, whilst losing none of the tune’s integrity and punch. The song was always intended to contain a certain Caribbean flavour, with Shaggy bringing his Jamaican patois to the track.
Together, Steven Malcolm and Shaggy turn ‘Fuego Remix’ into a summertime anthem that crosses borders and blends genres. American hip-hop, Latin guitars, and Caribbean rhythms collide, with the two artists both taking turns at the microphone. The result is a collaboration that’s every bit as cinematic as the accompanying music video, which finds Malcolm and Shaggy making their way through a cityscape at night, pursued by a crime boss and her pack of henchmen.
The remix has already defied all predictions and boasts a cool half-million streams, despite being released a mere few days ago. The fresh, dark, and menacing tones of ‘Fuego’ are taken to another level in the capable hands of R3HAB, putting Steven Malcolm at the centre of a trio of musical legends, looking to take the charts by storm with this compelling new sound.
