GOOD Music remix

A remix featuring Pusha T, Kanye West, Big Sean, and Jadakiss was released on the G.O.O.D. Music compilation album Cruel Summer as "Don't Like.1". Chief Keef was under house arrest when the remix was recorded.

Young Chop, the song's original producer, threatened to sue Kanye West over the remix. The matter was resolved in the same year, although West's artist, Pusha T, would diss Young Chop on a separate record.
