Rustie Presents: Pusha T & Tyler, The Creator - "Trouble On My Mind" (Lucky-T Remix)




Light years before unveiling his nearly flawless magnum opus, My Name Is My Name, Pusha T unleashed his unofficial 2-part G.O.O.D. Music debut, Fear of God and it's companion commercial re-boot, Fear of God II: Let Us Pray (2011). Not long after, LuckyMe & Decon Records commissioned Rustie, S-Type, Machinedrum, Lunice, and Hudson Mohawk [TNGHT] to produce a lost remix project dubbed "Lucky-T." Although LuckyMe further specified that "it never surfaced though, as Hud Mo started working with G.O.O.D. Music in an official capacity;" likely referring to his production contract, signed with Kanye's in-house Very G.O.O.D. Beats micro-label in January 2013. While Lucky-T never really managed to fully materialize, Rustie quietly uploaded his "Trouble On My Mind" remix to Soundcloud late Tuesday afternoon. It's a terribly awesome glitched-out re-work that upon an initial trunk-rattling listen, kinda reminds me of a Trap-heavy rendition of Daft Punk & Pharrell's 1970-80's Disco revival mega-hit, "Get Lucky." For what it's worth, Rustie's inventive club-ready remix really makes me wonder what Lucky-T as a whole would've sounded like... But if you're just a closet Pusha T fan or even an old school Clipse purist, I'd definitely recommend checking out Terrence Thornton's recent critically-acclaimed G.O.O.D. Music debut, My Name Is My Name!
