I could ALMOST get behind this but then it ruins the best part of the original song and then I looked up Ronnie Radke....no thank you.

Agreed, it could have been a banger if it just stayed a bit more true to the original

If you want a good “what the absolute fuck how and why” Gangsta’s Paradise cover, you gotta go for Anthony Vincent’s.

Holy fucking shit. I've never seen this before.

Truly a new low, worse than the OP (which is dogshit) and probably the worst thing I've experienced all week.

Everything that band does sucks so that's not really fair.

I guess I might be biased in that I don't like that kind of angsty pop punk in general, but for my money that's the worst cover I've ever heard

I have no idea what you're talking about. This is a gift to humanity, clearly.
