They DID ruin a great classic. This new version IS NOT music. It's just noise pollution. Hmmm.... Gambler won many awards and is still a legendary piece of music, this crap, hasn't,won't,and will be forgotten in about 2 seconds!
67 people don't seem to realize the purpose of counter-melodies. It's not intended to match up together morons, the time signature matches so the rhythm holds out in both of them and to those that are saying "the lyrics don't match this is crap" etc replay it and actually LISTEN, it's not the original lyrics for the gambler they've been altered slightly so that they fit in this
Shame on all of you! This track has been out for over a decade now, and it's still the jam! Wyclef took a sample of a country legend's most famous song, mixed it with one of modern raps most (virtually unknown by many at the time) intelligent artists, and opened another door for true fans of music. Its different, and quite honestly, both Pharoahe and country music gained popularity since this was produced. Thanks Clef! Do it again please.
People are just so ignorant these days. Basing an artist off one song. Like what the hell. That's like saying, Michael Jordan sucks because you saw him miss one jump shot, if you have never seen him play before. Use logic, good lord.
just because theyre black and they made this into hip hop/rap, does NOT mean its automatically a, "KICK ASS" remix people....my opinion after hearing it all, "horribly offbeat and awful all together.
wyclef and kenny rogers are like oil and water. the music just does not mix. does not. wyclef didn't even bother using the same key for the background music.
its like wyclef could only come up with half a song so he just picked the first washed up artist who would agree to colab and just mixed in their biggest hit.
@isays First washed up artist...I hope (dearly) that you are not referring to Pharoahe Monch. Pharoahe Monch is a legend and one of the most unique, original and skilled MCs in the underground. He's not mainstream and he does not make (c)rap music. He's come out with nothing but classic albums with sociopolitical and conscious subject matter to just a flat out impeccable display of lyricism. "Washed up artist"...smh
@IEtherianSoul9 the washed up artist i was talking about was kenny rogers. a legend, but he hasn't done anything worthwhile for some time now. hence washed up.
i don't blame pharoahe for the terrible song, or kenny rogers (the original gambler is a classic)... this was just a combo that should never have happened, and the mix was terrible.
it's funny that this song as so many haters and stuff but Pharoh and Wyclef wouldn't have done the song i they didn't have Kenny's permission, and Kenny was behind them 100 per cent adn was even in the recording studio with them. so...stfu and gtfo
It may actually help if the backing voices had somthing to do with the song or repeting what he was saying, but they had no relation at all . It is rubbish /:
Seriously this is sadder than Snow 21 inches of snow album.... And if you have no idea what Im talking about your A) way too young for kenny rogers and true Wyclef actually & B) are one of the 39 people who liked this...
I like both musical genres, country and hiphop. I like both songs from Rodgers and Pharaohe Monch (not really into Wyclef btw). But seriously, a mix of both sucks. Just leave both songs to their own plz.....theire fine as they are.
seeing as I'm looking at this subjectively, I'm gonna say the only good part of this song is when I hear Kenny Roger's voice. The rest is shit, and what the fuck is with the orchestral strings???? this is one big pile of stinking shit.
Plus let me tell you! Kenny Rogers likes taking babies, spreading their baby butt cheeks and puffing on the baby's butt hole, all while he's beating his meat while watching a man on man gay sex porno!
