DJ Snake and Justin Bieber's "Let Me Love You" is one of the biggest pop hits and recent memory. In fact it was ranked at number 41 on Billboard's list of the 100 best pop songs of 2016.
Because of this, it comes as no surprise that other artists are releasing their own versions and remixes of this song. Just last week dance music artist Zedd released his own version of "Let Me Love You" on his SoundCloud just a short time after teasing the track on his SoundCloud, according to We Got This Covered. Sean Paul had also teamed up with an up and coming artist from the United Kingdom, Dua Lipa, to put his own fresh spin on the song.
While Zedd and Sean Paul's remixes are not something to scoff at, a new remix released this week could possibly top both of them. R&B artist R. Kelly, best known for songs such as "Ignition" - as well as its subsequent remix - and "I Believe I Can Fly," dropped his own take on the song. This track is definitely a change of place for the normally ballad-centric artist.
R. Kelly's version takes the same melodies and hook to the song, but it definitely has his own signature, according to Kiss 92.5. The "I Believe I Can Fly" singer replaces Bieber's verses with his own to give it a more soulful R&B vibe. R. Kelly's vastly different take on the song is most definitely worth listening to, as some would even say that it does the original song b Justin Bieber and DJ Snake much justice.
It seems as though the crooner, who was popular in the 2000's, is now trying to make a comeback. A few days after the release of his Christmas album entitled "12 Days of Christmas," he has now hopped on this undoubtedly popular track to hopefully rekindle some interest. Even though the song is a bit outside of his known element, it is not a bad move since "Let Me Love You" peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.
