If Coolio's version was a black Cadillac, yours is more like an armoured offroad vehicle with truck stacks for exhausts. Well done for ramping up the power of the original
I’m a Dj here in the UK and yet again another masterpiece I can share with my audiences, the amount of people at my gigs who have demanded to know who you guys are when I play your songs is increasing every week, it all started with Thunder Rolls, keep the amazing tracks coming guys
I love how he stayed on beat in the beginning and slowly progressed heavier and heavier as he song went on, and what a sweet nod with the caddy in the background!!!! Well Done!!!!
The black 80s babies approve this cover of Coolio! Bravo well done. You truly tributed to our legend in the best way possible while keeping it original by your own vocals. I believe Coolio would be honored and even shed tears to be appreciated like this.
@@pauldawson5395 I can neither confirm nor deny this, but based upon the two easily verifiable facts that Coolio died and that “will I life to see 24?” is a famous line in this very song, i can only conclude that you copied this joke
Dont listen to the haters in the comments. Sure, theres lots of covers of this song but it is rare to find a Metal interpretation that is even decent. You certainly did that with this. Good job
As a huge Coolio fan growing up (God rest his soul). I was hesitant to watch this cover (however curiosity got the best of me). I am 100% rocking to it. You guys totally knocked it out the ballpark. By far one of the greatest covers to date. Now I want to see Fantastic Voyage. Keep them coming.
Amazing cover to a song that means so much to me, I was 19 when it came out and was well into my faith as a Christian, but by the time I was 23, just like the song says, I didn’t think I was gonna make it to 24, I nearly died of a drug overdose and was living with a drug dealer……, but these days I’m well back into my faith and have been for many years and still love this song, but also love this cover 👍🏻👊🏻
I loved Coolio in the 90s. Great cover of the song in my opinion and yall haters need to show some love to this group for showing respect to a man that left us recently.
Fucking love this cover! Coolio would love this version man. You kill it every time with these covers man! Keep it up man, love your content and always look forward to your uploads!
Daaaaaaaamn this is awesome! I love Lizzy and her amazing work so when I saw this I had to listen. I was not disappointed but blown away!! Excited for another incredible band to listen to
That's literally only because you don't like rap/hiphop, makes these statement incredibly 1 sided. The rap was an absolute classic and yes this metal version is pretty good, it does not beat the original.
@@XPGamingXPDK you know what the best part is? It's just opinions and in mine you are wrong, and sure I don't just dislike rap/hip-hop I despise everything associated with it, and I believe pushing that shit on public caused a fuck lot of harm

Idk man... If the original song explains the life of gangstas... I think this song explains what the fight of gangstas feels like. Truly I enjoyed this. Good work.
Honestly I never thought I'd live past 22. Grew up on the southside of Chicago. Joined the military as infantry when I turned 18 then 3 years later I was fighting terrorists in Afghanistan then going to invade iraq. After I got out I became a firefighter/medic and few years later switched to law enforcement. Been shot twice, stabbed, electrocuted, blown up, burned and in a near fatal accident with a semi truck. Yet some how I'm alive and now in my 40s dealing with blood pressure and fighting to stay in shape. Getting old sucks, but at least I'm enjoying the adventure still.
20+ years ago my mom used to take my stereo away because I played and rewound the casette my big sis made me to listen to Gangsta's Paradise on repeat...this version plays to both my younger hip hop fan self and my current metalhead self. Awesome tribute!
My recent fav songs this one, KID ROCK called "NEVER QUIT" and his best one called "WE THE PEOPLE." Believe it or not that song is big around the world one being Australia. I was never really a KID ROCK fan but that dude is on fire. Trust me you will like it!

For real this is so good! Coolio is looking down smiling at you guys. Damn that was great!
Appreciate the kind words, my friend!!
@@STATEOFMINE DO THIS, FOR COOLIO GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know a song is great when it sounds amazing no matter what genre it’s in. R.I.P Coolio, this is a great tribute to him.
Absolutely ❤❤❤
Absolutely true. You should hear this song by postmodern jukebox
Actually this is song wrote by Stevie Wonder
Living proof that music knows no limit...metalheads nailing a rap classic
I as a 67yr old white man always loved Coolio's Gangstas Paridice, but this is heavy as hell. Love it!!!!!!!
Here we go sir, I'm 52 and still rocking on ❤
This is amazing man, you changed the entire sound and i can STILL feel Coolio’s voice/message. through the song. Amazing tribute. Good job man.
He can sing it all!
Coolio would APPROVE this so much!!
Heavy metal meets rap. Two genres that you would not think would work together but my goodness does it sound good!

At this point, you just need to out a covers album. Your covers are all great and never disappoint.

A fitting tribute to Coolio. Rest in peace, G. You were taken too soon, yet lived longer than you ever thought possible.
He was 23 and didn't know if he'd ever see 24 the way things were going idk

This heavy metal version is incredible . A masterpiece . Enjoying . Love it ! 🙏🙏
This doesn’t just go heavy…
This goes hard
Can't wait for this!!! Maybe Ghost Riders in the Sky by Johnny Cash next?
Oh hell yes!
Me too😍
Originally by Stan Jones.
But yes I agree they would do an awesome version!
@@roytrenneman2200 Ah, yes. Good point.
Spiderbait did a pretty good ghost riders remix
You guys nailed it like Weird Al did. I’m sure he loves your version as much as Weird Al’s. RIP Coolio
absolutely AMAZING cover! What an awesome tribute to the original! Great fkn job!!!!
Coolio would have thought this was so cool. A fitting tribute. RIP Coolio
I love the original version and this takes a whole new spin on it and love it
I'm amazed! I don't even know what to say ..💕 And that Jump at 00:12!!!!!!!!!!!
We appreciate you, friend!!
Vocals, Vocal harmony together and riffs are masterpiece
Ultra badass cover! ❤

If alternative metal rock & rap had a legitimate love child, this is it. R.I.P Coolio.
WTF!!!! This is a real kick in the as* metal version. You guys rock!
Wow, Coolio has got to be looking aat this from the here after and nodding in approval. Very awesome.
It's incredible, I like both versions and despite what others say, it's not about comparing, both songs are epic with their style, simply incredible.
Slight twist but so faithful and true to the original. Hats off to you.
This was fantastic, I'm honestly surprised that no other band has done this one. Being the song came out in the 90's
It’s tending now tho. Look up Thunder Rolls.
In fear and faith did in 2008

That is not true. Lots of heavy bands did.

All perfection

still waiting for the "metal" part to show up....
I never knew I needed a metal cover of this song. Until now.
If you like this, check out the metal version by Frog Leap Studios (Leo Morachioli); it is even better!
I know Coolio is bangin his head right now.
You realize he was absolutely against weird al doing a parody of this song.
@@hellfire66683 difference between a parody and heart felt interpretation
@@tinyubergeek9051 just saying he didn't want anyone messing with his song.
Отличный кавер на легендарную песню!!! 12 из 10, ребята большие молодцы!!!! Продолжайте в том же духе. Успехов в творчестве.
the way they blended the choir into the song sends chills down the spine. Awesome cover.
Huge respects for what these guys did. Definitely did coolio right in this.

Love your vocals too!!!
Fooooooool
Continue to rest in heaven Coolio
You know it's a great song when it works well in different genres. Rap, Metal or Weird Al.
Best tribute I've heard yet. Thank you, he deserved someone to show this true love. You nailed it, for me.
This is an incredible tribute! I felt Coolio's original message shine through your version too. Well done, you guys did him justice!
WOW... There isn't a single part of this song that didn't give me goosebumps, what an incredible sound, gentlemen.🔥
An epic song will always be epic no matter what
Rap or metal
Black or hillybilly metal head
Thank you Coolio for leaving such a masterpiece legacy
Don't forget Amishpunk! XD
Daaaaaaaamn this is awesome! I love Lizzy and her amazing work so when I saw this I had to listen. I was not disappointed but blown away!! Excited for another incredible band to listen to

Rip Coolio, truly legendary.
When you make a song that EVERY genre respects then you're a true musician

Good job on making it a unique cover. Leo from Frog Leap Studios did an excellent cover of gangsters paradise.
This goes so UNBELIEVABLY hard.
Your drummer is INSANE !
Love this! I think Coolio would’ve loved this. State of mine keep up the good work.
I'm liking these covers, it's so cool hearing rock covers of country and rap music, it's a nice change
One of the best covers I've ever heard...
One of the best covers I have ever heard PERIOD
This makes me kind of wanting a completely classical version with lyrics shifted to fit the suit and tie gangsters.
Very nice, State of Mind. Keep up the good work.

Def going on my gym playlist
Wasn't expecting that. Pretty good. Will be looking for more. Rest in peace COOLIO.
I love this rebirth version of Coolio's hit song in rock edition . Good job guys!
Damn this hits different it's 💯 🔥🔥🔥 and an incredible tribute to coolio
Such a powerful song, now and forever I suspect.
And that, my friends, is how a new music genre was born: gangsta metal. Definitely gonna show this video to my homies.
No matter how hard I try, I keep saying "amish paradise" XD
Weird Al had the best parodies for sure 😂
haha
Absolutely love this!!!
