Steve Aoki is one of the most accomplished DJs in the world, but even the most seasoned artists sometimes fail to live up to this opportunity.
In a recent interview with Emmy Award-winning journalist Graham Bensinger, Aoki shared a story about a remix for Kanye West that will never see the light of day. He remembers hearing West's freestyle over the phone and later getting Stems sent to remix a song. However, Aoki was stunned to discover that the song contained verses from West, Drake, Eminem and Lil Wayne.
As many may have guessed, it was probably a remix of the mega-collaboration "Forever". Unfortunately, it never saw the light of day. Aoki himself didn't think the remix was good enough, but being able to remix it today would be a whole different story.

Aoki and Bensinger's full interview will debut this weekend, where they'll discuss the former's future family plans, the curse of tinnitus, encouraging his family to be cryogenically frozen, and more. Here's where to go to see it.
