I am sure you have all probably heard Jacquees ‘Trip’ remix, which he is calling a ‘Quemix’, and if you haven’t you’ve missed out on a great song that puts you even more in your feels than Ella Mai’s original version.
The re-make was so popular it received more attention than Mai’s official song. Unfortunately, Jacquees was sent a cease and desist letter for the remix due to its outperformance and he has since been forced to remove the song off of both YouTube and SoundCloud. The singer shared the news on twitter after reposting an article about how he must remove the song from his social media platforms. The singer then proceeded to quote tweet the article with a number of teary eyed emojis to portray how sad he is about the removal.
There have been several rumors regarding whether or not Jacquee’s has been making profit off of the remix and if Ella Mai is the one who personally sent the letter of cease and desist to the fellow artist. The rumors though were soon dispelled after two social media altercations occurred putting all the rumors to rest. The first one being when T-Pain suggested that the young artist might have been looking to make a quick bag off of Mai’s song, Que swiftly responded stating “N*gga no I didn’t lol hell you talm bout my brother I put it on SoundCloud and YouTube you know my game ain’t cap I love Ella”. DJ Mustard also commented on the altercation in order to defend his artist, stating ” I’m just tired of people picking on Ella”. Mustard posted a picture on his Instagram starting off by saying “Our artists don’t send cease and desists, we do”. See below for the full post.
So there you have it folks, Ella was not the one who forced her friend to take his ‘Quemix’ down. Jacquee’s team has sent a statement to billboard expressing that there is no bad blood between the two artist and they even see a collaboration for the two in the near future. I am sure that collaboration will be fire! Comment down below if that’s a collaboration that will make it on to your playlist or not.
