The only word that can best describe this is….

Brilliant!!!!!

Dan Black is a musician from London, far far away from the streets of Harlem and Brooklyn.

However, Dan's just done the most phenom cover of the Notorious B.I.G. classic Hypnotize.

Completely reinterpreted the song!

This shiz is about to go viral, it's that good.

Ch-ch-check it out (below).

    This is really not that great…. There's a reason there aren't any remixes/covers of this..



  2. 102

  4. 104

    Re: tiggicoRe: tiggico – I remember Biggie and this actually almost offends me with it's awfulness. That song is a classic and this just sucks.



  6. 106

    i love this! A complete reinterpretation.



  7. 107

    Re: amster8

    sounds like?
    you'd think jay-z going UHUH UHUH at the beginning would give it away. but i guess not. it's called sampling.



  11. 111

    Oh geez!! I should have known better than to tourture myself by listening to that, even for a minute. When Perez says a song is "BRILLIANT", 99.9% of the time it's NOT!! I was bored to death with that song!!!



  12. 112

    ..it's not bad..but it isn't the same song anymore. unfortunetely

    I LIKED a lot the original..for me it was pure sex groove, great beat..etc..but it is not like this anymore..:(



  13. 113

    I love it!
    It better than the first version
    :D



  14. 114

    yummy *licks lips*



  15. 115

    I can't decide if it's good or just funny… maybe both. Reminds me of Dynamite Hack's cover of NWA's Boyz in the Hood.



  16. 116

    I definitely have to say I like the original better, though. This is more funny than some sort of "brilliant" reinterpretation.



  17. 117

    i love this song. where do i buy it???



  18. 118

    I went into this with an open mind and no bias towards a remix/re-make of a classic b.i.g song. I figured you could do this song in a ton of different ways and make a cool version out of it. WOW was i wrong……..that was horrible on so many levels

    119

    he is cute, the end.



  20. 120

    First that shitty version of lollipop by that fake ass sex kitten and now this version of Hypnotize by this guy? Seriously perez? Are these artist paying to play this shit because you can't really think these "covers" do the songs any justice. How about these "artist" make their own good music instead of this crap.



  21. 121

    This really sucks!!! Are you smoking crack Perez?

  22. harle says – reply to this


    122

    loves



  23. 123

    Holy shit, wow………. I'm feelin the beats.



  24. 124

    ITS igght but EVERYONES RIGHT U HYPED IT UP TOO MUCH AND IT WAS GOOD BUT NOT AS GREAT AS U SAID IT WAZ but it waz good and HES C=KUTE LOL



  25. 125

    are you all fucking deaf????? This song does no justice for B.I.G. You shouldt be allowed to cover a classic. Unbelievable that so many peopple liked it. This proves that peoples taste in music us going to shit.



  26. 126

    Re: Channel – lol!!! COULDNT HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF



  27. 127

    Loved it! I think it's way better than the Original! That is my opinion….



  28. 128

    That was really stupid. Like, bad. The original is perfect, don't mess with it.



  29. 129

    worst. cover. ever.



  30. 130

    People can have different taste in music, not everyone likes Rap…. this cover might bridge music to people who may otherwise not even know who the Notorious B.I.G was.



  31. 131

    It sounds like mariah carey taking a dump on nick cannons face. Actually, that would probably sound better.

  32. AMO says – reply to this


    132

    NO, he took the part out of it that made it so great… the rap!



  33. 133

    perez you're musical taste is to much for these people.



  34. 134

    reminds me of Umbrella. LOL he's CUTE!



  35. 135

    whack .



  36. 136

    I think my ears are bleeding, as if British people don't suck enough already, he had to go and ruin, one of biggy smalls best songs. I know biggy is dead but that song must be copy righted right? They can't just let english fags go around ruining great rap songs…biggy smalls is the best rapper of all, time no one should even consider touching his songs, because any remake could never even in the slightest bit compare to the original, I think this is the worst song I've ever heard…congrats Dan Black your the worst thing to happen to music since kids bop and don't ever think about touching another biggy song again, your so not worthy.



  37. 137

    Re: Storm – hahahahha agreed i bet biggy would roll in his grave if he ever heard this gay ass shit, who even allowed this stupid fag to touch this song let alone sing it…stupid shit is ruining good music!



  38. 138

    I had to create a nickname just to say that this is an affront to old school hip hop. Way to emo Biggie's classic into oblivion Douchey Dan Black.



  39. 139

    Sorry…That song SUX big time….
