    To remove the text between the comas would be a great feat,
especially if you're still groggy from waking up from the first one.
However, if you meant "commas", then I, like the others, don't see
one.

    On a different note, with all kidding aside now, if you want to
strip everything in parentheses, inclusively, then you can use this
code:

<?
$string[] = "this is how  we do (50 cents feat. the game)";
$string[] = "give it to me (nelly feat timerland)";
$string[] = "let me hold you (bow wow feat omarion)";

foreach($string as $p => $v) {
        $out = preg_replace('/\(.*\)/',null,$v);
        echo $out."\n";
}
?>
