    This shows me that Kanye's last album could have been really good...if someone else was singing it.

    The acoustic version was more enjoyable, in my opinion.

    One that has been annoying me recently is that cover of Lil Wayne's "Lollipop". I don't know who covers it but the song is annoying enough without some crappy emo band making it worse.

    I wouldn't say they are crappy. Its Framing Hanley who sings it.

    I think that song improved a hundred times when someone else did it. I could actually hear the words, not just the audio effects. It was amazing!

    I was just reading this and the first song that I thought of was the re-make of lollipop.

    The band is Framing Hanley and IMO its a pretty good re-make!

    yea, I agree. The Framing Hanley version is better!

    besides.......this isn't recent. This was nearly a year ago. I don't think Framing Hanley is even working together anymore.......

    slight derail.....

    two guys from Framing Hanley and the old singer of Evans Blue(Kevin Matysin) started a new band......I think they are pretty dam good.

    Not really rap, but pretty good nonetheless.

    Wow, that was great!

    ...and, yes, Andre 3000 is most definitely rap.

    Anyone have the opposite? Like a hip hop cover of a rock song? Am I not just talking about sampling. I'm talking a cover of everything including lyrics.

    Silverleaf cover of Paul Revere from the Beastie Boys:
    <iframe scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="0" style="width:240px;height:26px;margin:3px;padding:0;border:1px solid #dde5e9;background-color:#ffffff;" src="http://cid-3bd90a2f993a8233.skydrive.live.com/embedrow.aspx/Public%20Music/04%20-%20Paul%20Revere%20%7C5New%20Version%7C6.mp3"></iframe>

    :eek: A friend showed me this a while back. He says Silverleaf used to be a band in Houston.

    Just to me, bands covering rap songs now doesnt have the indie edge. But maybe I prefer the irony over the flattery.

    Darn, so no 2 Live Crew butchered up dirty versions of rock songs? :eek:
