Bobby Ray (B.o.B) - Put Me On (Reebok)
- Artist: B.o.B
- Track: Put Me On (Reebok)
- Producer: A Tribe Called Quest
- Album: Reebok Classic Remix
Featuring timeless designs and bright colors that simply scream, “Put Me On,” Reebok's Classics line practically sells itself, but those who tastes in both footwear and hip-hop run old-school are sure to appreciate the bangin' musical bonus that will come with their brand new kicks. The latest artist to update a retro favorite for the shoe manufacturer's Classic Remix Collection, Bobby Ray (aka B.o.B) has flipped A Tribe Called Quest's 1990 hit, Bonita Applebum, into a nostalgic tribute to the music and fashion that defined his formative years. With retro, sample driven production back en vogue, it's no surprise that the Tribe's jazzy instrumental, centered around a memorable sitar riff from Rotary Connection's Memory Band, sounds as fresh as ever; Bobby even heightens the feel-good vibe with some mellow acoustic guitar strumming. An easygoing track perfect for those long summer nights, Put Me On is a shoe-in for rave Booth reviews (I know, I know, it's “shoo-in;” the pun was just too awful to resist), and may even have a few heading down to Foot Locker for a fresh pair of sneaks and a free download code.
