New Video: Quincy Jones x Akon “Strawberry Letter 23”

[vodpod id=Video.3435390&w=425&h=350&fv=]

Q and the Konvict rehash the Brothers Johnson’s classic opus. Wonder what else Quincy’s got in store for his remix album, Q: Soul Bossa Nostra. Pretty anxious to hear that “Secret Garden” remake.

    Much respect to his success. he’s no way a bad talent, but not a great one either. Cool artist, but Akon can be annoying with his voice thus couldn’t see what really attract many to buy his albums.

    With that said, all you need in hip hop is timing/momentum and take off, dedicated fans and you’re household.

    His vocals here were better than the other whining he does. It’s cool.

    this is pretty nice… i listened to the original, and this really is a modern version of it…

    i like both versions but this video doesn’t do the song justice, especially with the war torn world we’re living in a war themed video would’ve been awesome, see the song is about a soldier in Vietnam who receives letters from his love on pink stationary and was sprayed with perfume, whenever he opened that letter and smelled it it transformed Vietnam into a dream like world for him, and the story goes he died 23 minutes after reading the 22 letter…

    Wow, this is disgusting. Another classic track ruined by Quincey Jones (After that HORRIBLE single fgor Haiti). Dude needs to hang it up. Why the hell would QJ want to work with Akon? (A guy who cannot sing without the aid of Autotune) I guess QJ is about the age where the alzheimers starts kicking in.
