this week my favourite coverversion is: isley brothers - ohio/machine gun
will update next week.
bonus: james last - carribean nights lp. mostly marley-covers. not much beats a very white, very german easy-listening choir singin "iyahman vibrration yeahea"

a great track to sing while twisted
I was thinkin about my favorite rap covers while I was bumpin TRU's "somebody's watchin me" last night. gangsta boo's "love don't live here anymore," geto boys' "world is a ghetto" and the ever classic Tech N9Ne's "I'm a playa" to the tune of "Amadeus."
