Why do we like this?
It's hard to believe that a 16-year-old kid from New Zealand has a member of one of the greatest groups in hip-hop history remixing her track, but here it is. One of the Wu-Tang's best assets, Raekwon, has followed in the footsteps of Maybach Music Group head honcho Rick Ross, remixing Lorde's "Royals," and surprisingly, it doesn't suck.

The Chef's fluid flow purrs over the simple pop beat, complementing Lorde's gangster chorus, showcasing not only Raekwon's versatility, but just how big a song "Royals" really is.
