I'm ecstatic over this remix!! I wonder if it will be Rihanna & Britney or Rihanna featuring Britney. Also wonder if they are changing the beats/production on this. For all we know could be the exact same except with Britney singing the cmon cmon I like it like it cmon s s s and m m m parts with Rihanna doing the verses.

I am confused as to why they are doing this? S&M is old now. Why not do a new song for a Loud re-release? In any case, It is Britney... so it will be good.

Yes!!!!!!!!!! IDJ is getting with the program, FINALLY! Take that Katy!
As I stated before though, this either needs to go on sale or be performed live and then released to itunes directly after to have maximum effect.

I knew IDJ wouldn't drop the ball.
After the mega success of Telephone, Jive won't let Britney pass this one up, too. It may even wind up pumping more life into the Femme Fatale era. Win-win situation.

The hype for this is CRAZY up in here. It better deliver, and it probably will, but...I'm actually keeping my hopes in check for this one.

S&M has done it's job. As long as the remix is not too different to warrant charting separately, this is just a strategy to secure a #1 on the Hot 100.

I'm almost positive this won't be a 'Telephone' in terms of how much Britney will contribute (in fact I'm expecting very little) but, above anything, I'm just curious to see what they did with it.

This is gonna be amazing, but I'd rather have a real Britney/Rihanna calaboration. But maybe if this goes well they'll do something else for the rumored "Loud" re-release :)

The remix is gonna be sent to radio as well? The number of spins are gonna be combined with the original? Otherwise, what's the point other than sales on Itunes?

Seeing as S&M is about to peak on pop, I wonder if the remix won't keep it afloat awhile longer instead which might block Katy from E.T. getting that pop #1?

This is pretty cheap. IDJ is so desperate to get a #1. What could Britney add to this song? Will there be a video?

A lot of artists have done this in the past so if this is a desparate move, it is one that quite a few artists and labels have tried. Adding a singer or rapper to get more single sales. It didn't happen much in the 00's because singles sales became obsolete until digital downloads were introduced, but Mariah started it with O.D.B. and ever since then the remix has been used as a tool to gain more single sales and airplay.

Yes most artist release a remix when they release the song. S&M couldnt get to number 1 on its own so its like lets rush a remix and add some one who will sell singles

Brilliant move by Def Jam. If this really is released Tuesday and she performs the remix on Thursday on Idol, downloads will be insane next week.

..and the problem with that is? It's a clever marketing strategy to help both of them out during their respective eras.

Really? Janet Jackson and Heavy D, Janet Jackson and MC Lyte...lets start with those remixes...The ODB Puff Daddy remix of Fantasy was released at the same time as the original in 1995 right after the Janet Jackson Runaway remix with Coolio.

S&M "couldn't get to #1" because of circumstances, not because it wasn't a big enough hit to generally warrant a #1 placement or that all other common techniques had failed (she has yet to perform or promote this anywhere). Coincidentally, the circumstance blocking it is another song that also applied a feature.
Artists and labels ALWAYS take whatever measures they feel will benefit the song most. Some are just smarter and more aggressive than others. I fail to see how someone can reasonably spin this negatively?

If it's a hot remix, I'm all for it getting to #1. if it's a lazy effort, then no.

I just read Britney & Rih (Brihanna, btw) will be performing this on Idol. I really can't see it happening, but I didn't think the duet would happen in the first place, soo...

Thank you. Didn't Jody Whatley also remix off her second album? I know she did Friends with Eric B and Rakim. People act as if Mariah either invented the remix or was the first major pop star to team up with a rapper. I just read Britney & Rih (Brihanna, btw) will be performing this on Idol. I really can't see it happening, but I didn't think the duet would happen in the first place, soo... If this is true, IDJ should issue me a check because I've been suggesting this all along!

IDJ has consistently done shady things to get #1s (repressing, price cuts, and now this). Im sorry who else as done a price cut or added a last minute high profile remix? Excuses. Some of the biggest songs ever peaked at #2...
