I'm sure you've all heard it or at least heard OF it. Soulja Boy. It's like a plague that just wont go away. Everyone listens to it, despite it being retarded as hell, since the 'Boy' himself sounds like he has Downs syndrome.

But, a new salvation is upon us. Travis Barker, one of the greatest rock drummers of today, did an amazing remix, and turned a shitty song into something worth listening to. Check it out!

He played for Blink-182 right? He is an awesome drummer! That song still sucks though.

The video, while better than the original song, is somewhat simplistic and doesn't really put Travis Barker's drumming proficiency to the test.

And yes, I edited to avoid trolling, since that was what I intended. Now please, get the fuck out of my thread. Please. See, I asked nicely.
didn't intend to troll?

can you explain how the original is shitty without saying it just sucks? maybe then I would have explained a little more.

The original is terrible, as one the 'drumming' is incredibly simplistic, and two the singer sounds like he has Downs. That's why it sucks.

Furthermore, if you think the drumming blows, please by all means record your own remix of the song, with better drums, and upload it for us all to hear.

Im sorry but when did Down syndrome become a insult this really does piss me off since i know 2 people who have it one being my brother. My thought of you completely changed. Its dumb to use something as a insult espicially when you dont know anything about it.

It's not an insult. I know someone with Downs. The fact is though, this person willingly sounds like a retard, even though he (mostly likely) doesn't have the syndrome.

Would you choose to have the ability of normal or speech, or to have an impediment like someone who has Downs? You'd choose normal speech of course, which is why i'm insulting this bastard for choosing to sound like he has a mental handicap.

I can say your voice sounds like a duck's. Can that be an insult? Sometimes. Does that mean I'm insulting ducks? NO.

On topic, percussionists never cease to amaze me. Until you start concentrating on the percussions of a piece of music, you can never really appreciate it for what it is. When I start listening to music nowadays, I always try to concentrate more on the drummer's parts more than the melody.

Also, that guy is fucking wild. And Soulja Boy sucks ass, despite the fact that my high school is constantly playing his music.

That has absolutely nothing to do with the point being made. And some people have really nasal voices comparable to a duck's.
