New Music: Beyoncé & André 3000 – ‘Back to Black’...

The full version of Beyoncé and André 3000's 'Back to Black' was debuted by Mark Ronson on his East Village Radio show last night.

Ronson co-wrote the original Amy Winehouse classic which was released in 2006. The song appears on 'The Great Gatsby' soundtrack, which is available for purchase on May 7th. Beyonce's seductive vocals glide over the haunting, grungy production, but Andre’s verses are lack luster. She'd have been better off taking on the song on her own. However... it's still commendable that they made the song their own. The contemporary Hip Hop twist was refreshing even if Amy fans felt she destroyed a classic. But what do YOU think of their remake?
Thoughts?
