Awesome rendition. I didn't enjoy their first album, back in the day; but their last album (especially) and the newest one are really great. Perfect mix of groove and metal.

yeah I was really impressed how tight their version is.

And a good thing about rappers that can also sing is that they usually have awesome diction and clarity. The lyrics are much easier to follow than on the original version.

Wow. Aside from Ice-T having a few moments where he wasn't quite rhythmically where I'm used to hearing the vocal, that was pretty spot on.

I never paid much attention to Body Count since the first thing I ever heard from them was a big meh/nothing snorefest. May have to go poking around their catalog now.

I have always loved Ice-T. Original Gangster (if you dig that sort of thing) was KILLER :evil: I am a big fan of rap metal :love: and having Ice-T means you are going to be doing it right. NSFW and definitely topical. But I dig the sh!t out of it.

Body Count has been on point with their last few releases. And this cover is fantastic.
