I hate (that's harsh... maybe strongly dislike is the better word choice) Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry Be Happy," but luckily I like Chiddy Bang and you should too. Chiddy Bang made their way from two young & hungry Drexel University Students to hip hop's most promising duo in what seems like a millisecond and with good reason. Their style of witty wordplay over unique and fresh samples is something to aspire to for musicians of any genre. This cover was done for Billboard's Mashup Mondays project, which normally suck, but in this case, I was showing this to anyone who was on facebook at the time I found it (4 people... I don't have many friends). There is a quick explanation of what happens in the song before they do the cover, but all you need to know is that the whole purpose of this was to have Chiddy freestyle and incorporate a few words/concepts into his freestyle (i.e. Pink Starburst and Back to School). I really enjoyed this and I hope you do too.
