Are we going back to the days of metal/rap collabs like in the late 90s and 2000s Nik?

i hope you’re reacting to this fr

Way harder than it should

​@@DarthBlehthat was my first thought. Hopefully it sparks more

proof anything can be metal number?

Yes please!!!! Oh and I also really hope new bands will form with inspiration from SOAD, they were such a great 90's/00's band.

This has already happened with artists like Tech N9ne and Cory Taylor from Slipknot

Ohhhh that'd be GOOD! 🤘🏻

@@mr.heylel666 Buddy they literally said "new generation", both of the artists you mentioned are literally fucking *from* the 90s and early 2000s

NuMetal is SO BACK, baby.

As a fan of both of them as well, SAME 🥹

I feel so dumb for never thinking about this because I love both and know what either can do alone.

Yessssssss

It’s total fucking trash!

Yesss so much yess this is fkin wonderful!

Yessss❤ go girls!!!

@@stacierose1692hell yeah! They ate this shit up! 🔥

@@paradiseeddy8079 yesss I got chills 💞💕

Agreed

Chills hit right then🤘🏽🔥

The Elitists don’t even start listening to this masterpiece so we should be safe here yeah

@SeBa81KEB fair point.

@@SeBa81KEB not surprising really, Courtney has a very Pop singer voice, she even called herself a poser lol

Both Meg fans and Spiritbox fans are being so cool about this. There are a ton of people who listen to both metal and rap but I'm super glad those who don't are here for it

That's how everyone should roll

I don't know what Spiritbox & Megan have planned for 8 pm but they're hinting on Twitter.

I love both these women so this song is going off everyday in the gym for me!

Meg should have upped her vocals at the end too.

Be for real. My music is way better than them

Absolutely 🔥

This is awful but sure

any more spiritbox recs? I love trap numetal-ish especially like Ghostmane oor Linkin Park

​@@omarhafeez2879If you haven't already, Holy Roller and Cellar door should be right up your alley. 2 of their heaviest tracks to date

Check Spiritbox tracks: Circle with me, Blessed be, Jaded - those are cool introduction tracks. Enjoy:)

@@pasza_dem thank you! You’re so awesome for this 🥰. Music is my everything 😊

@@Trepanation21 thank you so much for commenting and providing more dope music of theirs to expand on!🥰

@@sephiroth10191 thank you so much! Omg I love this thread! I’ve added all of these songs to my healing playlist. This year almost took me out of the game of life permanently, and I would have missed out on my rebirth. I really appreciate you all so much. You have no idea that you all are aiding me in my process. ❤️

@fromlissawithlove you're very welcome. If you want anymore songs to listen to, hit me up. I've got a whole list of metal songs and bands for every mood and circumstance lol. On a side note, I took my wife (she's black) to her first metal show this year and she loved it! She wasn't sure what to expect because she thought metal was violent, satanic music (that's how it's portrayed) but she had a great time. We saw one of my favorite metal bands (fallujah) and she got to keep a drumstick from the drummer of one of the opening acts. She was all grins lol. There's nothing like the energy of a live metal show!

Your mind ❤ Great taste

I’m so happy for you !!! I love this project

You ate that!

mood

When stuff like that happens, it feels like a personal Christmas.

You should listen to Megan's Traumazine album it gets really interesting after the middle point.

word it's missing that rap breakdown

Yes! And a guitar solo with a bridge. This wasn't really a complete song.

I'm a huge rap/Megan fan, never even heard of Spiritbox. As soon as I heard this I'm like that metal is Siiiiiiick! 🎸 Perfect collab! ❤❤❤❤

I agree but it's a Rock Remix still Megan's song. And they did amazing implementing a verse + chorus with backing vocals and every eerie sound you hear is Mike in the guitar. Amazing band. They are gonna go far and change music

frrr I'm a huge spiritbox fan and I always love seeing artists of different genres like this collaborate, it introduces so many people to new music

@@hannaaa961 Hello! Can you tell me if Courtney also does the screams after verse 2?

@@erenaybrown That is Courtney, Yes. All the vocals except for Megan's raps are Courtney as far as I can tell. If you want a song that has a good mix for Spiritbox, I recommend Jaded or Rule of Nines or Blessed Be. If you want something more pop from Spiritbox, check out Too Close/Too Late. If you want all screams, Holy Roller, Cellar Door or Angel Eyes got you covered.

@@erenaybrown Jinjer is another amazing female led band and Tatiana does all of the singing and screaming for that band as well! Check out the song Pisces!

@@Kreiger81 thank you!

Definitely, the Ed Sheeran + BMTH performance was absolutely insane, this would be just as crazy

+ Harper

for real

No, it needs to be removed from all platforms and Megan needs to repent. I can’t believe how blind so many of you are

Spiritbox just got nominated for a Grammy, so this is gonna happen, I reckon!

If you want more pop style tracks you could check out " Too Close/ Too Late" or "We Live in a Strange World". A good mix of clean with some screams would be "Rotoscope" "Perennial" and "Blessed Be" (my fav), and heavier tracks would be "Holy Roller" and "Hurt You" with a catchy chorus. Just some random suggestions haha. Hope you have fun with your dive into the band, enjoy !!!

@@christopherfalkeisen791 hell yeah! Thank you!! I’m definitely gonna listen to all of ur suggestions ♥️♥️

@@moe245 No problem, hope you enjoy some ! Take care 🙂

Yea the song and artist are both trash without spiritbox

​@moe245 really just listen through their Eternal Blue album when you have some time. It's all a roller coaster of emotion and sound and very easy to listen to over and over. The harder stuff may be a difficult listen at first but this album is great at giving a great mix that manages to be catchy and jammable even at its heaviest. Metal isn't made to be easily consumed by all, but that album is a phenomenal starting place!

No it’s fucking not 😂massive L

Iconic

I’m confused then a bitch but w

YESSS

ABSOLUTELY NOT. DON'T BRING THAT RATCHET SH*T OVER HERE.

and thats how nu metal was born twenty-something years ago

You think this is "meshed perfectly"? Oh god...

​@@motorheadbanger90yes it is critics and people said same too so your trash opinion dont matter

rap and metal are my fav genres

@@jackyfrom_usa522 Gittum!!!

Yes! The Jay Z and Linkin Park collab has been a favorite of mine since day one.

@@JaiK64 PERIOD! What a time to be alive !!! Even on BET they would do collabs of all genres. That’s what made those shows special. But today everyone sounds & looks the same so I reckon it wouldn’t be like how it was. That Bubba Sparxx performance put me on to them. I loved the roots, then they had I think it was outcast too! I still have my copy of Collision Course, and pretty much all Linkin Park CDs. Never got rid of them !

@@JaiK64 that was my shit…I still have the promo poster for this album from back then lol

Still rock out to Korn and Dem Franchize Boyz Coming Undone Wit It 🤘

Bringing this shit back hell yeah I'm here for this

And megan is without any label and independent This is all incredible I’m happy for both

Spiritbox collabing with MTS, BMTH with Ed Sheeran, Bad Omens topping the alt charts, Sleep Token blowing up like they have... It feels like heavy music is on the verge of breaking through to the masses in a way we haven't seen since nu metal.

@@thefortyniner i beleive even Lil Uzi Vert and BabyMetal. i think i butchered the name, not BabyMetal

You're a metal head and you think its good that metal is being "exposed to the mainstream". That is the antithesis of what metal is about..

​@motorheadbanger90 and it sounds like you're gate keeping there

It's been a thing. The labels won't push it though. So proud of the collab.🤘🏾

Fr this sounds already live concert/performance ready! 🤘😢💧

@@HaydenUriahexactly!!!!

@@HaydenUriahCan you list some songs where this has been a thing? I need to see them 😮

​@@Myplaylists93Doechii, crazy

100%. Most labels are a cancer to true creativity in the music industry. Imagine how many other potential creative collabs from other artists like this have been prevented from labels

@@allbranflakes i know, i think about that too sometimes 😢 good thing that we have amazing artists like Megan, Little Simz or Raye doing their thing without a label

Facts!!!

Very true now I see they are the ones that held her back. That's why she kept doing that repetitive rap shit with no personal.

Facts.

Same as well, been listen to them since their first ever single that came out & im so proud of them as well 🔥🤘

@@BussinNotTalkingDisgustin Hell yes 🤘

100%...I tend to gravitate towards their heavier music, and hearing screaming in this song made me just giggle like a little girl lmao

Chill out

same I still have my Beauty in Suffering shirt from 2017. they have grown so fast.

That would be Courtney LaPlante screaming and singing in the background. She’s incredibly talented and well regarded in the metalcore music scene.

These rock/metal vocals really fit the theme of the song Was eager to see this live before, but now? Mosh pit ready! ❤️‍🔥

Been saying this for years but who you just heard was Courtney LaPlante doing fry screams and clean vocals. She's extremely talented and Spiritbox is a very popular group. Each member talented in their own right, hell their bassist, Josh Gilbert, is also a very well known talent in the metal scene, I personally think he should start singing in the group cuz he also has an amazing voice. Point is, it's a shame that people don't give metal a real chance because there is SOO much raw talent that is missed out on because "omg the screaming sounds like devil worship".

​@Snipedout209 wasn't Josh Gilbert the bassist for as I lay dying for a little while?

@@sephiroth10191 yes, I believe he was a founding member of AILD, he was with them until their initial breakup, I hear they might be headlining a few shows coming soon. But he formed Wovenwar with other members of AILD, then he did some stuff with Howard Jones of KSE under the name Light The Torch and now is Spiritbox’s bassist.

I like your little Spiritbox emoji thing. Clever.

​@@tschantzI was thinking the same thing, I'm def going to copy it jajajha

I'm incredibly happy for Courtney, I love her verse so much.

Spiritbox and Megan are hinting at something coming at 8 pm.

LOL thanks!! I make myself playlists and all the titles are emojis, so when I made a Spiritbox one that is what I landed on @@tschantz

exactly! that shred at the end was not enough for me! it's euphoric!!

Saaame!!

Yes! I'm not even a huge rock fan but this mix is EVERYTHING!!

I totally felt that this song should be a rock song

SHE UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT

Welcome to the rabbit hole, brother :p

Yes because I'm listening to them now. I listen to rock/metal and I've never heard of them.

As it should because they carried the tune

@@evilscorpio1981 I've been listening to them since 2017 when they were just a small local band putting out singles on KZbin. It's been a hell of a ride watching their growth in the music world. They deserve it.

@@evilscorpio1981 you're in for a treat. They're 🔥 Enjoy Holy Roller on repeat and their new song Angel Eyes (Holy Roller 2.0 basically).

Go check out the collabs between tech n9ne and Corey Taylor too, them shits slap

@@TheXrossfade You ain't kidding, partner. Those plus the one Tech did with Serj Tankian are a blessing.

So true

Let's go, hotties need new music for twerking & headbanging

Hell no.. we don’t need this ghetto trash in metal

Give spiritbox a try maybe you'll like a little metal after all😅

Listen to Spiritbox, Courtney is a beautiful singer give them a listen and listen to her when she was with IWRESTLEDABEARONCE to their album Hail Mary it's amazing

Yessssssss plz listen to Spiritbox you won’t regret it 🖤

You will after listening to spiritbox. Courtney is amazing

Agree 💯💯💯💯❤❤❤❤❤❤

why would you have to ‘closet’ your interest? that’s extremely childish behaviour

@@sainttheresetaylor2054 you did not grow up where I grew up and judging my feelings and experience seems quite childish to me.

It’s especially sad considering we created the very genres we’re now shunned from

Right ? This is the best like finally lol

I think they make up for it by having Courtney sing "This P**sy depressed"

It's not new! The catalogue of rap metal goes deep, take a look, if you like this there is so much more out there :)

Cat wait

It’s gonna be sooooo good 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Right?!💯

Both the screams and the clean vocals are done by Courtney Laplante. If you want a taste of her full range, check out the one take of Circle With Me.

Me too this version is just special

Secret Garden is a very beautiful song as well to check out by Spiritbox 😊

Do yourself a favor and listen to Eternal Blue by Spiritbox I think you'll definitely love it.

I'm a Megan fan and this is my first time hearing of Spiritbox. So thanks for the suggestions everyone! This is a great collab and I definitely want to hear more from Spiritbox now ❤

Agreed not a fan of Meg but this goes hard asf

@@Jalabhar_Xho it exposes more people to the genre. Quit gate keeping

@@jordanf4402 probably gonna be a double edged sword and a risk, but hopefully it's a net positive for them (which it will probably be)

​@@MonicaIbanez15 Black people invented Rock music. If you have a problem with Rap then you should stop listening to Rock too.

@@20ice47Actually this is metal not rock !!!

💯💯💯

It might be coming. Spiritbox & Megan are hinting at something coming at 8 pm.

My thoughts exactly

I agree. Oh my bad. I thought you said ruining.

The only person that runs rap or anything is the queen Ncki Minaj !

You misspelled ruining

@@Live2Laugh27 AMEN!

Check out meg's song 'Anxiety'! It's another one of her deep songs.

@@clarad7265 thanks for the recommendation. Will check it out!

Punk goes crunk volume xyz

Megan is the top of her lane. She needs to stop calling herself just a rapper. She's much more than that.

@@Grimm_Butterflyagreed. she’s a full artist

Yes please!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Yes!!!!!

Agreed!

Yaaaassssss

​@@FromAshesToNewYO!!!

You know this is a great point. In the Black community there is a lot of pain and anguish and that's probably why we glorify the partylife/ good times. It's because we fear acknowledging the harsh nature that is the day to day. Escapism.

I really think she's starting to now that she has her own label and can do her own thing now.

check out her last album Traumazine, she covers a lot of what you're talking about

Listen! I expect her to get up there and rip! And if Spiritbox backs her....we winning outchea with metal rap!

I might actually have a stroke if I were to experience these two queens on stage 😭

Doja on the remix 🌚🧍🏾‍♀️

Yesssss

Please god no..

Listen to Jaded, very pop/metal

I'd suggest checking out Rotoscope, Ultraviolet, and Jaded if you were into this sound. Spiritbox has a wide variety of sounds within the rock and metal genres

if you like this you'd probably like the genre nu metal? and some spiritbox aongs you should listen to are rotoscope by spiritbox it's kinda like metal meets billie eillish. ultraviolet is also VERY poppy. personally the song that got me into spiritbox (and metal as a whole) as someone who previously hated it was the mara effect pt 1! but i was an emo kid so maybe that doesnt count

Same! And I’m not even into metal. But this, I can f with this. Megan smart for putting this out

Exactly what I was thinking. Would truly be this generation's version of that.

This is EXACTLY what it brought me back to!! I love this!!!

Riiiight???? It's the same "holy shit, this WORKS!" thing i had back then!!

SO REAL

You were SO close to accidentally referencing a Spiritbox song, they have one called Blessed Be, grwat song

Listen!

This is my 5th replay so far! 🫡

SAME OMFG

i love metal and i’ve always thought this!!

Check out Unity TX and Dropout Kings

If you haven’t heard of them, check out Scarlxrd and Ghostemane. Rappers that have a lot of metal influence and sound in their stuff

@@hitthegoat i loveeee ghostemane

@@waketp420 I haven't heard of Unity TX, thanks for the recommendation! Absolutely love Dropout Kings.

Please do post the examples! I was a big fan of the Busta Rhymes+Linkin Park and Jay Z + Linkin Park combo back in the day

This would be sick!! ❤

Megan's flow just works to Mike's weird technical playing, never listened to her before, listened to the lyrics of this song.. they're gritty af at times and work so well because of it. Actual banger!
