Y’all know about Jada Pinkett Smith’s metal band, right? It’s called Wicked Wisdom.
She takes it pretty seriously.
If you have a MySpace account, you can download a FREE MP3 from the band. Follow this link to Wicked Wisdom’s MySpace page and look for the remix of “Bleed All Over Me.”
To hear that track streaming on my Vox blog, click here.
Overproduced and derivative. Sort of Metallica without the balls.
ReplyDeleteCreed circa 2001 did this kind of stuff so much better.

Scott Stapp's a grade A loon, but he and his boys put out some fine metal.
Good call, o. I'm still gonna go out and get the piece because Fish of Fishbone is on the drums.
ReplyDelete... Fish of Fishbone is on the drums.
ReplyDeleteOh snap! I didn't even read the fine print, DeAng.
Here's a vidclip of the band on Letterman two years ago. Sure enough, Fish is on the kit.
Thanks for the video clip, Dave. Didn't really get with the comments panning her voice. Have these people ever heard Rollins "sing?" It's the theatrics and energy of the music that's important. Y
ReplyDeleteI like it. Regardless of what artist WW may sound like "O", her music organically comes from her. It expresses how SHE feels.
ReplyDeleteAsk any good producer or artist and they will tell you that there is no such thing as new music, there is only GOOD music. So either it is good or not.

DeAngelo: People are bound to hate because, let's face it, the woman is rich as fuck and can afford to live out her rock-star fantasies by simply hiring some talented musicians.
ReplyDeleteThe commenter who said "Rage Against Talent" knows how to crack a joke... but it doesn't exactly apply in this case.
It expresses how SHE feels.
ReplyDeleteIt's not my kind of music, Kenya. But more power to her if this is a side of her creative spirit she wants to put out there.
Fishbone is still the only band whose mosh pits made me actively fear for my life.
ReplyDeleteWHICH MEANT THEY WERE AWESOME
Better than I thought it'd be. Sounds kinda like Cree Summer
ReplyDeletelmao at Letterman's comments at the end of the video clip..:-)
ReplyDeleteKellybelle: Oh great, now I've got visions of Goth Metal Elmyra dancing in my brain... (Get it? Cree Summer? BRAIN? Ha ha ha... um)
