During the first edition of Korn’s Family Values Tour in 1998, the Bizkit put their very own spin on what’s arguably the biggest feel-good rap anthem of all time: “Jump Around.” Perhaps DJ Lethal, formerly of House Of Pain and Limp Bizkit, had something to do with that.
It’s said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Rage Against The Machine had already been friends with Cypress Hill for over a decade when they paid a huge compliment to their brothers by including the adrenaline-charged “How I Could Just Kill A Man” on their 2000 covers record, Renegades.
The term “ballsy” is an understatement when describingFraming Hanley’s decision to include a bonus version of Lil Wayne’s “Lollipop” on their debut album, The Moment. But it also was an incredibly clever move by the emo pop-punkers, as this track successfully propelled them into the Billboardsingles chart for the first time ever.
It doesn’t get much more ambitious than this. “Sabotage” is a stone-cold hip-hop classic, and the Beastie Boys are practically untouchable. But the Cancer Batsdared to remake it, and the risk paid off. The band even humbly paid homage to the prolific trio with a music video that is an obvious tongue-in-cheek tribute to the original.
This rendition of Ginuwine’s “Pony” is enough to leave anyone speechless at first. It’s full-on sleazy and even cringe-worthy at times, but Far’s subtly comedic interpretation of somewhat ridiculously inappropriate lyrics allows it to be amusing and enjoyable. It had so much potential to be terrible that it went full circle and became brilliant.
Lyrically, “Heartless” is actually a seriously angry tune, yet rapper Kanye West doesn’t deliver the vocals with much vehemence at all. This is a pinch hitter angle for the Word Alive, who channel their rage through the words of this number and combine it with killer melodic harmonies.
For most people, “Gangsta’s Paradise” is recognizable within its first few seconds. It was the lead single from the 1994 Dangerous Minds OST and a No. 1 smash hit around the world. Two decades later, Falling In Reversedecided to try it on for size. The result split the alternative community practically down the middle, with some hailing it as geniu...
Is it ever “too soon” to reproduce another artist’s work? Although it actually dropped at the very end of 2014, “Trap Queen” was one of the biggest bangers of last year and certainly put Fetty Wap on the map of popular music. There’s not much publicized about the band Crest Fallen, but if they’re capable of this, we’d very much like to hear more fr...
