Phoenix Fury Legdrop Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Stream of the song here I heard this at the Wabash College show that Folds played a few weeks back; genius cover of quite the random Dr. Dre song.
Edwin MacPhisto Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Worth it to hear Ben Folds say "chin-check" and name-drop the D.O.C.
Gary Floyd Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Korn said that he sucks. Which of course means he kicks ass. Besides, they could never do a cover this good (see Korns covers of "Word Up" and "Another Brick in the Wall") My brother went to see him in concert recently, and he did this song live.
Phoenix Fury Legdrop Posted March 5, 2005 Author Report Posted March 5, 2005 Did your brother go to the Oklahoma U. show?
The Czech Republic Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I like Ben Folds but Dynamite Hack's cover of "boys in da hood" is the standard bearer for nerdy white guys doing a folksy rock cover of a gangsta rap song
Edwin MacPhisto Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I wrote a paper about Dynamite Hack's "Boyz in the Hood" for a pop culture sociology course my first year in college. Between that and an exam question about "Fuck the Police," about 30% of my grade in that class was directly attributable to N.W.A.
Rob E Dangerously Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I listened to an MP3 version. Ben Folds is too gangsta for some to handle, of course.

Steviekick Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Dynamie Hack wound up breaking up in late 2001. Interscope still has their second album, which I've been curious to what it sounds like.
Rob E Dangerously Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I'm looking forward to somebody covering "Stranded on Death Row"
Placebo Effect Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Korn said that he sucks. Which of course means he kicks ass. Besides, they could never do a cover this good (see Korns covers of "Word Up" and "Another Brick in the Wall") I kind of like Korn's Metallica cover. But yeah, their other two recorded covers are brutal, especially "Word Up."
Gary Floyd Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Did your brother go to the Oklahoma U. show? No, he went to a Cincinatti Ohio show
Youth N Asia Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I loved Dynamite Hack's album, and the only better better than their Boys in the Hood cover was the video for it.
CheesalaIsGood Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 This song is awesome. I approve of this and the Dynamite Hack "BITH" cover.
Youth N Asia Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 D Hack also did a pretty good rock "Today Was A Good Day Cover."
