In Part of the beat it samples the Snap! song The Power. Part of the song was produced by Swizz Beatz.

The remix of the song features Jay-Z, Swizz Beatz, & John Legend on background vocals on the chorus. least challenging.“ Power” (Remix) is the first single from American rapper Kanye West off of his fifth studio album Dark Twisted Fantasy. 'Power' was the least progressive song that I've ever had as a first single. "So many people rate Dark Fantasy as my best album, but Yeezus and 808s are so much stronger. But he also went on to say that the reflective nature of the album is exactly why he doesn't like the album much today. West himself admitted as much in October of this year: “It was kind of piecing together what people liked about me to make a bouquet of what people loved,” he said in an interview that aired on artist Nick Knight’s ShowStudio website. It’s almost as if West took every sound he had cultivated up until that point-the soul samples of College Dropout, the grand-scale and beautiful orchestration of Late Registration, the gloss of Graduation, and the auto-tuned melodies of 808s, and didn't so much as reduce them but compress them into one vision.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’s mouthful of a title perfectly suits the album’s maximalist, grandiose sound.
