How many of you love @DraftPunk? I know I do, I am a
huge fan! How unique is it that a new artist is covering a contemporary hit
single? Personally, I was such a fan; I listen to it 3 times on YouTube before purchasing
it on iTunes.
As MTV Buzzworthy Blog states, “Grey has been on her grind for a long time now and has worked with everyone
from Diddy
and Jay Z
to T.I.,
Dr. Dre,
and even Marilyn
Manson. We last saw her goofing around with Eminem
in her "C'mon Let Me Ride" video. Here, although she leaves much
of the summer jam's swinging disco intact, Skylar does add in more sweeping
electronic touches, upping the already pretty heavy robotic funk quotient considerably,”

O’Neil, L, 9/27/2013).
Agreeing with the MTV review, I believe that Grey
was one of the most successful, hottest new recording artists of summer 2013. Do
you think it is a smart move to have newer recording artists cover contemporary
bands/singers? Is this an easier way to have quicker success?
