Deorro and MAKJ Drop New Track, ‘Ante Up’

Last August, Deorro and MAKJ joined forces for an electro house heater titled, “READY!” The track became a festival favorite and currently has over 3,000,000 SoundCloud plays.
 
Now, nearly a year later, the California natives have returned with another hard-hitter: “Ante Up.” The song is pretty much what you’d expect from Deorro and MAK except for one big difference: it contains a sample of M.O.P.’s hip-hop anthem from 2000 of the same title.
 
For those who don’t know, M.O.P. is a respected hip-hop duo from New York that collaborated with DJ Premier in the ’90s and ’00s. Their 2000 single, “Ante Up,” achieved mainstream success and is now a classic of the era. Considering that MAK is returning to his roots as an open-format DJ, it makes sense that he’d flip a track from a group like M.O.P.
