That Metal Show Host Goes Rap For Fat Chicks Cover
. In a surprising first, Jamieson provides lead vocals for a rap/rock version of the hip-hop smash "Baby Got Back." An homage to thick and curvy women with an abundance of junk in the trunk, the song was first popularized in 1992 by rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot (who has himself taken to performing a metal version of the song in recent years). All music for Don's interpretation was arranged and performed by Paul LaPlaca (Chris Caffrey, The Great Kat, Zandelle), with backing vocals provided courtesy of rock & roll comic C.C. Banana. "It's hard to pinpoint exactly how I came to agree on doing this song," explains Don Jamieson. "A man I know only as C.C. Banana asked me if I would rap on an album about fat broads. Though I've been intimate with a few ladies in the heavyweight division before, I've never actually rapped about them. For that matter, I've never rapped about anything. Now that I think about it, I guess it was the promise of a cold beer that sealed the deal. So thank you, C.C. and Paul, I had a blast. Oh yeah, and thank you, Budweiser." "One reason this opportunity appealed to me is that it's something I've never done before," reveals Jamieson. "But after getting comfortable in the studio, I was making suggestions and guiding the session like a regular Mutt Lange! Which is a nice change of pace for me, since I'm usually more of an Artie Lange. Or occasionally a Jessica Lange. Overall, it was a smooth transition from working with Eddie Trunk to rapping about chicks with junk in the trunk." A sample of the song is now available at the official "WHOLE LOTTA LOVE" MySpace page. http://www.myspace.com/WholeLottaLoveTribute Preview and Purchase Fat Chicks CDs |
