Thumbs up Re: MCA Tributes

I was thinking about the accent on this. This is pretty cool. I don't usually like veastie covers too much. if I just listen and minimize the video, its cool.

thanks

Aussie hip hop group the Hilltop Hoods paid tribute to MCA with their version of “So What’cha Want”. The interview at the start is pretty great (0:13).

Interesting to see a two-way division of the lyrics.

IMO they fucken nailed it. Didn’t attempt to replicate/mimic the original (impossible feat); just stuck to their own style. I thought it worked.
( vs on YouTube would suggest I’m not alone.)

Also – the rounded Australia pronunciation of “can’t”……. @ 1:46 ie……..“you cahrn’t front on THAT”………....….made me grin. <3
