He's not underrated in my house. Living Colour, man...the whole band, Will Calhoun, Vernon Reid, Doug Wimbish; massively influential on me, down to musical concepts. They rocked my world when I first heard them and still do today!
Absolutely! Pavarotti had a great voice into his 70's, it can happen, look after it, and with his gift he can still amaze for years, like Roger Daltrey -
I've been a fan of Living Colour since 1988. It's cool hearing them do a cover of a Notorious B.I.G song. I can't wait for their upcoming album "Shade".
CrystlRain27 At first it was going to be released this year, but it got pushed back to early 2017. I guess they released this "Who Shot Ya?" EP to hold fans over until "Shade" gets released.
I spoke with them in 2014 it was actually supposed to be released then and has been pushed back several times, hopefully 2017 will be the year it comes out.
Living colour is a unique band, in terms of sound and lyrics. love the sound of the band. hugs from Brazil and that letter also reflects a lot the reality of my country. we hope that one day the world can be a better place for everyone. stay with God.
32 Years Later and LIVING COLOUR is STILL Bringing The CONSCIOUSNESS in Absolute Artistic Glory..... Big shout out to Will "Sonic Boom" Calhoun and "Fret-Burnin" Vernon !!
LOVE YALL! ROCK N SOUL WITH CONSCIOUSNESS! LIVING COLOUR, LIVING KINGS! Coming to my home town Atlantic City on 1/27th! Bring it! *NewFace Magazine LV Team Las Vegas!
These guys.... never cease to amaze me.. vernon reid , will calhoun, doug wimbish and corey glover are the people that made me able to professionally do all their instruments. And their New album is AWESOME
The most awesome thing about it is they show that by taking a song about a rapper wiggling his dick and pounding his chest, and doom metal-ising it, they have made the ultimate statement of what is wrong with English-speaking society as a whole.
*pat* There, there, child. I know it is hard when someone who has actually played an instrument in their life sees your "art" for the child-smeared shit on the wall it is. Do you think the men in this video consider this song challenging or creative? Boy, have they got some unpleasant surprises for you.
Cerebral Heavy Metal, Funk, eclectic - the cover is awesome interpretation, but their music holds relevant messages from 30 years ago to today! Brilliant energy and talent!
Still rockin' it and shoutin' out the truth. Love everything you do. Vern, your playing blew me away as a teen trying to play guitar. You sound just as raw and uncompromising now as when I was 17! You guys are more important now than ever! RIP George F.
I just discovered this and love it! For me there was no contest between Biggie and Tupac.... B.I.G. was ALWAYS the dopest. So to hear Corey Glover/Living Colour putting their own spin on a Biggie classic is on time!! Real talk!
I saw them that same year at the Universal Amphitheater. Right after the Rodney King beating video came out. As I recall, these were Vernon Reid's words when he greeted the audience during the show: "Hello Los Angeles!.....You KNOW we've been waiting to get to Los Angeles! You KNOW what's been happening in this town! And you KNOW we couldn't come here and not talk about it. The funniest thing is how shocked everyone is. This shit happens all the time!......man, fuck the police!"
"An amazing band dat l've been n 2 sents early 90s, so sad these days there aren't really any bands with their own destinct sound n vibe" Living Colour always has!!!!! Respects from life long fan!!!!!
A dope cover this needs 1,000,000 views im the 56,764th viewer this gotta hit 4,000,000 by Thanksgiving. I feel a more connection to rock than rap these days
Man-O-man!!! You brothers always keep it REAL & RELEVANT!!! I’ve opened for you 3 times in recent years!! Twice in ‘Hick Town’ Leesburg and once In Connecticut w/ the Paul Nelson band for a local Fundraiser! Every time you’ve been the most AMAZING and engaged cats I know in the INDUSTRY!! You ALWAYS bring your A-game. Thank you for remaining inspired and generous with your collective COLOSSAL TALENT. Love and respect to you Corey Will Vernon DouG..........🙏🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽❤️
I hope these guys are still going. I have lots of respect for this band. These guys have no black n white barrier. Wished the world did. Hope to see you in Seattle if your still going
Saw Living Colour in Berlin in early 1990. Only brother in the place. Still rocking hard and relevant through the years. Great rendition of Biggie. Hope to see you out in NorCal!!
When great men see a pervasive, incredible wrong in their world, they make a doom metal song about it. Glad to see you are still kicking, Living Colour.
Before you condemn the rappers who extol the virtues of name brands, you should condemn the white fascists who not only advertise them on a larger scale, but price them out of the range of the average working-class person's budget.
Don't wear I condemned anyone in my comment but all I know is I don't buy that shit because i'm smart enough to know better. Not saying anyone is dumb or anything like that but self-control is obtainable by anyone. That is why i do not purchase rap albums today. But i totally ordered this album.
I dont know where i implied a meaning behind the lyrics, but that is good to know. Also, a present for you "Living Colour have a new EP called Mixtape out September 9. It’s a collection of remixes for the band’s remake of the Notorious B.I.G.’s “Who Shot Ya.” They were inspired to remake the song by both recent spikes in gun violence and ongoing police brutality towards African Americans in the United States." pitchfork.com/news/67631-living-colour-enlist-chuck-d-black-thought-more-for-notorious-big-who-shot-ya-remake-listen/
Qué grandes LIVING COLOUR, Corey Glover es uno de los mejores vocalistas sin duda alguna y esta es de esas bandas que nunca han dejado de lado la actitud contestataria propia del rock más puro; el objetivo de expresar ideas que generen más ideas, de generar pensamiento autónomo, reflexión. Puro Rock And Roll!!!
What the hell did I just listen to? This song grabbed me by the throat for 3:59 and did not let go. I couldn't take a breath till the 4 minute mark. STUNNING.
this video IS MORE EXPLOSIVE than gun violence itself!!!!!!,,,,,,,very impressive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1,,,,,,,dynamic musicians!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111....should be in the rock and roll hall of fame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
even though the band has been around for a while , coming from a musician like myself I enjoy the creativity each musician bring to the table that make what they play to make the song come to life. I'm a fan as well,
Corey Glover, one of the most underrated frontmen of our time. Still has that golden voice..
I went to see a live Living Colour's show back in 2018 in Argentina, AND THEY STILL ROCK IT. The voice of Corey is as bright as ever 💖
This entire band is the most underrated of all time.
Hell Yeah, Bill!!
He's not underrated in my house.
Living Colour, man...the whole band, Will Calhoun, Vernon Reid, Doug Wimbish; massively influential on me, down to musical concepts.

One of the greatest rock bands of all time. Powerful song. Powerful imagery.
I’ve never heard this song until today 2/2024. Love it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pissed off Living Colour is badass. Glad they're still around
Corey has the most powerful voice and delivery. Iconic badass.
No idea Living Colour was still active. They are, and still fighting the good fight!
> the good fight
Three Dog reference?
man it's amazing. they've been together for 35 years. As are TOOL,
Just got home from their show in Youngstown. Phenomenal band.
@@Parrish_Muhoberac Disbanded for over 20 years
I've been a fan of Living Colour since 1988. It's cool hearing them do a cover of a Notorious B.I.G song. I can't wait for their upcoming album "Shade".
Same here!
since 07 my man, loved their re record of cult of personality.
2017 for Shade?
CrystlRain27 At first it was going to be released this year, but it got pushed back to early 2017. I guess they released this "Who Shot Ya?" EP to hold fans over until "Shade" gets released.
I spoke with them in 2014 it was actually supposed to be released then and has been pushed back several times, hopefully 2017 will be the year it comes out.

The lyrics are from Biggie Smalls, they just turned it into a rock.
I am 58 and have every song by Living Colour! This is freaking awesome, man. you guys don't get older - you get better!
Wow idid not know white. Scratch that any girls knew
smokymountaingirl Betsy it’s biggie Smalls they just turned this into rock
32 Years Later and LIVING COLOUR is STILL
Bringing The CONSCIOUSNESS in Absolute Artistic Glory.....
Big shout out to Will "Sonic Boom" Calhoun and "Fret-Burnin" Vernon !!
What a great song! After all these years these guys still know how to rock it!
They just get better.
Hello Yell
Rafael Casa lyrics by NOTORIOUS B.I.G.
What a great album. Glat someone still carrying torch. Kinda not a surprise
The greatest band of all time.
I like that last statement about changing ourselves because a gun ain't never killed nobody without the aid of a human being.
LOVE YALL! ROCK N SOUL WITH CONSCIOUSNESS! LIVING COLOUR, LIVING KINGS! Coming to my home town Atlantic City on 1/27th! Bring it! *NewFace Magazine LV Team Las Vegas!
These guys.... never cease to amaze me.. vernon reid , will calhoun, doug wimbish and corey glover are the people that made me able to professionally do all their instruments. And their New album is AWESOME
dam my man still has his voice
Idk what's more awesome, the fact these guys are still around, or the fact they made Biggie metal!
The most awesome thing about it is they show that by taking a song about a rapper wiggling his dick and pounding his chest, and doom metal-ising it, they have made the ultimate statement of what is wrong with English-speaking society as a whole.
Kenny Gates none of both
*pat* There, there, child. I know it is hard when someone who has actually played an instrument in their life sees your "art" for the child-smeared shit on the wall it is. Do you think the men in this video consider this song challenging or creative? Boy, have they got some unpleasant surprises for you.
They certainly respected it, though. They wouldn't have covered it otherwise.
But why am I feeding a troll and reviving a thread.
Cerebral Heavy Metal, Funk, eclectic - the cover is awesome interpretation, but their music holds relevant messages from 30 years ago to today! Brilliant energy and talent!
2019 still one of the greatest rock bands.
Still rockin' it and shoutin' out the truth. Love everything you do.
Vern, your playing blew me away as a teen trying to play guitar. You sound just as raw and uncompromising now as when I was 17!
You guys are more important now than ever! RIP George F.
Such an underrated band!
Corey's pipes get better with age...this band shatters my mind with each listen...
Just discovered this song but the meaning and lyrics still hold relevance today. Too many shooting today
I met Living Color playing San Andreas, I loved the song Cult of Personality when it played on Radio X.
I am very grateful.
Same here.
This is one of the MOST powerful messages ive ever felt! ABSOLUTELY MOVING AND PHENOMENAL!!!
My favorite track from that album. Loved these guys since '92!
One of the most underrated bands
This song rules and the video is perfect.
I just discovered this and love it! For me there was no contest between Biggie and Tupac.... B.I.G. was ALWAYS the dopest. So to hear Corey Glover/Living Colour putting their own spin on a Biggie classic is on time!! Real talk!
One of my favorite bands since 1988. 👍🏼🤘🏼
Worked for CBS during Living Colour's debut album; best music heard ever.
You guys still rock hard.

That’s what i allways liked about
Living Colour,their social conscience.
Such an amazing band!
I saw Living Colour Live 1991 Brixton Academy,London,Uk.They were Fantastic!!!!!!!!
I saw them that same year at the Universal Amphitheater. Right after the Rodney King beating video came out. As I recall, these were Vernon Reid's words when he greeted the audience during the show:
"Hello Los Angeles!.....You KNOW we've been waiting to get to Los Angeles! You KNOW what's been happening in this town! And you KNOW we couldn't come here and not talk about it. The funniest thing is how shocked everyone is. This shit happens all the time!......man, fuck the police!"
The definitely made the song their own. Nice tribute to Brooklyn's finest. R.I.P. Big.
i didnt think this would be a big cover but then again they from new york.this is amazing

So good. So powerful. So important. Thank you Living Colour. Thank you so very much❤️
God, I love this!!! Its like old school rap (by old school rap). You hear a message, not some dumb rhyms that promote brands(Nike,Jordans,Gucci,ect).
I was going to comment this but then I see your comment and can't be more agree
Before you condemn the rappers who extol the virtues of name brands, you should condemn the white fascists who not only advertise them on a larger scale, but price them out of the range of the average working-class person's budget.

John Garcia actually the song is about to kill somebody who's been being disrespectful to Biggie, 😂
