elvis was a hero to most but he elvis was a hero to most but he elvis was a hero to most but he
ahhh remember them days when the world was real? honestly i thought everything was different-shaped now but listen: a hot new system of a down song on the radio, three six mafia busting double-kickdrum powerful-calfed vinnie paul patterns on the spizzong to ur left, and lil jon producing korn and xzibit on a cover of "fight the power" for the new xxx movie ! crazy. it's like lil missy just said to me, 'i don't even know who these people are!'
i can't really do it justice so i'll just break some things down:
- lil jon gets his own hysterical-synthed intro and then NOTHING ELSE apart from trademark vaguely spacey electro drums for the verses
- which segues into big bad krashing korn drums for the chorus!
- the spizzazzz-endorsed fav korn video is probly that "blind" one where the song ends and they break into some hot nu metal beat, just playing it relentlessly in their dingy squat with the huge korn banner behind them, no doubt the only non-musical posession they had at the time, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT NU METAL DUDES DO!!!
- but the one we still see all the time is that shit where there's bullet holes everywhere so jonathan 'korn' davis blows on a bullet to trigger the hot percussive-bass breakdown
- i hate xzibit! well ok "bitch please" was good one million years ago but his current mtv omnipresence grates no end! jack cable mysteriously loves that wack "hey now" song
- oh yeah, "fight the power"! x and j davis share the verses, passing the mic in racially harmonious fashion - x probly sounds best but then j davis gets nearly the whole chorus so call it a draw on the battlefield with lil jon, as ever, secretly winning the war
- and i'm done
