Is The Bill Collecta by Chamillionaire the most shameless attempt to re-create a hit single?

[winb83]

Same producer, same feature, the beat sound damn near like a Ridin’ Remix. Might as well be the same song.

Yes,
Probably some wack ass A&Rs idea.

All Interscope artists are expected to establish a line of singles that can be followed up upon

Whoa Chamillionaire is not a one hit wonder. He's a legend in Texas.

 

[TheWiseWon]

Not as egregious as OP's example, but the production is cut/paste between these two tracks.

Candy shop and the other one 50 done that was near enough the same song

Yep. Jimmy Iovine was supposedly notorious for being the "You need a single" guy to the point where he had no problem shelving an artist's album until the finally had a string of singles.

The hit up T-Minus and said give me that I'm On One

These are absolutely shameless. At least 2 Chainz got a decent verse off on "My Moment".

Isn't that the same beat. Like a Ras Kass Jadakiss Home Sweet Home / We Gonna Make It situation?

I remember this being blatant as fukk

Cash Money tried to duplicate the "Ha" formula with U Understand and Momma Got Ass but at least they sounded different from each other.

Turn it up reached into the low 40s on the Billboard hot 100 so I would say he doesn't really count as a 1 hit wonder. The fact that he basically quit rap to become a venture capitalist doesn't give him that much runway on having hits though.

No they just have the same producer who is T Minus.

That would be an interesting Thread too. I know a beat that got sold to 3 people recently and they all shot music videos for it.
