Man, whatcha know about Janis Joplin? I've got a few Joplin cuts in my iTunes collection and Mercedes Benz is one of my favorite joints. Joplin just had this incredible voice. G-Eazy lends that voice to his new track. I dig it. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!
I was digging through my mom's record collection and stumbled upon Janis Joplin's 'Pearl' record. I had heard "Mercedes Benz" before, but it had been a few years. It was one of those moments where I instantly jumped up, and decided it would be a dope song to flip. The concept is so relate-able, and the passion is so present in her voice. The original is an acapella, so I wrote some chords and called my homie John Michael over to lay down some acoustic guitar parts down behind her vocal. I'm stoked on how it came out.Mercedes Benz (The American Dream) ft. Janis Joplin by g-eazy
