As far as brootal cover songs go, hip-hop ones tend to take a backseat to their poppy counterparts. (There have been five Punk Goes Pop compilations and only one Punk Goes Crunk.) For metalcore bands, hip-hop covers are far from easy to pull off, but when the speed and intricacies of both genres fuse, the result can often be irresistibly catchy—thumping with the best bass of both worlds.
