Just came back from Virgin Megastore to get the new Iced Earth disc and went looking through their selection and what did I see in the Rock Tribute section? The Hip-Hop tribute to Iron Maiden Laughing very hard

. I read it twice to make sure I wasn't seeing things!!!!

Dude, if the hip-hop tribute to Def Leppard is any indication, the Maiden tribute will be horrendous! I'm not saying it's no possible to make a cool hip-hop cover of a rock/metal song, but the DL tribute is just so terrible it's not even funny.

Go on Amazon.com and give it a listen.

That is the opposite. Walk this Way was a rap cover of a rock song. Bring the Noise was a rap song first and then given a metal treatment. Cool song though. I dig it. Also, "Lethal" with Anthrax was cool.

Obviously, we're in the minority on that one!

I just don't care for rock/rap hybrids. It's like mixing your eggs with your grits. That's just sick. Smile

I'm with ya, bro. For me, rap and metal don't mix. When Anthrax did "I'm the Man", I thought it was great because I looked at it as a goof on the genre and they were just having fun. When they redid it on the Attack of the Killers B's along with "Bring the Noize", I thought "Wow, they are serious about this". I've since gotten over it, but I still can't forgive them for spawning a whole slew of rap/rock bands.
