Oh wait.. it's NOT a joke?
Well, someone somewhere must be laughing. A hip-hop covers album. Of that most infulential of talents, that artist that speaks volumes to all the homies out there - he'll pop a cap in your ass, yo - straight from the mean streets of, er, Chiswick - it's Phil Collins.
As baffling an idea as it is, it's easily ten times as bad as you think it might be. Cue 15 tracks of idiots covering Phil Collins songs in their own "style" all for the glorious cause of, uh, well that was never quite explained. If there's any question of quality, there's always former boyband fodder Dane Bowers to give you that seal of absolutely no-talent.
Worst offenders have to be Brandy and Ray-Jay, her dimwitted tag-a-long brother murdering "Another Day In Paradise." Ah yes, nothing more refreshing than hip hop stars, who spend their entire CAREERS ramming how much money they have down our throats preaching to US to "think twice" about the poor people in the street. Yeah, it's SUCH a nusiance running them over in your "Benz", isn't it Brandy?
A terrible concept, a pitiful range of "talent" and a laughable excuse for music, there really is only one person laughing at this dire joke - and that's Phil Collins. Ker-chiiiiiiing.
