Great Remixes
Freemasons do an excellent job on "Deja Vu". This sounds like a completely new song and very catchy. It would be great to have Beyonce & Jay-Z's "Deja Vu (Freemasons Club Mix & Edit)" on the new album.

This is a CD Single for House Music Fans
If you are into hip hop, you will probably only like the album version. The other tracks on this single are house remixes and will appeal to a completely different audience. The Freemasons Club mix is a disco house mix and it virtually removes all the hip hop stylings of the song. Naturally, this will not appeal to Beyonce's base audience, but for the house lovers, this is magic. For those who are not familiar, Freemasons have been turning the club scene upside down for the past year, or so, having remixed Faith Evan's "Mesmerized", Jamiroquai's "Don't Give Hate A Chance", Heather Headley's "In My Mind" (Freemasons mix was never released on CD), Supafly, Inc. "Moving Too Fast", and most recently, Luther Vandross' "Shine". There are samples of the Freemasons' mix of Shine on the "Ultimate Luther Vandross" CD around on the web. Although, there are not many other samples of their work available, the Freemasons remix singles are widely popular in Europe, and largely ignored by the US market, since we have veered in the hip hop/rap direction. However, they are well worth searching for. If you are a house fan, I think you should check the Deja Vu remixes out.

It's OKAY
Yeah, "Deja Vu" is just okay. It's not fantastic, it's not bad, it's just okay but forgetable. Beyonce's voice sounds really strained towards the middle of the song.I keep hearing that "Deja Vu" has a Michael Jackson "Off The Wall" vibe to it, but I guess I missed it becauses I don't hear any resemblence. It actualy sounds more like the remix to "Crazy In Love." Jay-Z doesn't add anything to the song either. Other than that I recommend listening to "Deja Vu" by Dionne Warwick, Teena Marie, or Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz.
