The club that I just recently returned to has a new music format that they only play all types of rock and house techno versions of pop and hip hop songs.
No regular hip-hop (Please hold your appalause hip hop haters, lol.) No reggeaton, no old skool hip hop, not even a regular pop song, has to be mixed into trance or house or no sell.
The problem is I do not have a strong stomach for techno/house music so Im not interested in dancing to those versions of hip hop songs. The other problem with this is it is clear that our minority clientle felt very alienated...walk out after walk out after walk out.
What I am looking for is really great rock covers of hip hop songs like Framing Hanleys' version of "Lollipop" and the rock version of "Pony" that I was introduced to last night.
Im also looking for great rock hip hop combinations that I could use like Lil Waynes "Stunting Like My Daddy"(not sure who it was done with.) My manager is very against the Jay-Z/Linkin Park remixes (not that I can fault him for that) so those suggestions can be exempt.
Im going back in tonight so any help will be greatly apprieciated. Thanks everyone.
