Denzel opens up about how Rage Against The Machine frontman Zack de la Rocha influenced him as an adult and artist and why the 1996 song is still relevant today.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind a metal based denzel curry album.
He dropped a teaser on his CZcams recently that might be hinting that he's coming out with a rock album.
The dude definitely has the skills. Look up his short cover of System Of A Down too!
i wouldn't say metal. maybe nu metal but it would be mainly rap rock
Did you guys see suicideboys latest metal rap album? Its fucking awful. I hope denzel doesnt do that
@@sean1419 Rap metal, you mean.
@@westonwheeler2311 That wasn't rap metal, it was trap metal (aka trap music with metal influences, instead of the reverse) and hardcore punk. I liked it.
Zach's singing was rebellious on a tactical form;
Denzel's was pure guerilla warfare
What a fucking description, glad I was lucky enough to see it. This is my head cannon.
That's pretty damn accurate.
It's the best Like A Version there is, period, and the shining star of my Angry AF playlist.
Scarlet Styles Ehh I feel more FIDLAR’s like a version of Xanny
Art vs science was better
I think it’s tied with 3-4 for best. But one of, yes. And the video that really turned me onto Denzel beyond a few tracks.
How about Joey badass??
Nothing but thieves
"I got introduced to Pantera because of Dragon Ball Z" - That line really needs some elaboration, lol
In the Broly Movie they Played Tens when Broly transformed.
@@scottbruckner4653 Aah, I didn't know that! Thanks for clarifying.
Back before CZcams there was like 1000 DBZ highlight videos with different metal songs behind it. And 8,000,000 when CZcams came around
Almost all the DBZ movies from the 90's had epic metal tracks😂😂
I got to know in the end by linkin park because of a badass goku vs broly AMV
He really nailed the fury Zach brought to the song. That guitarist really helped bring it home too.
Harts and Denzel curry rly share that emotional energy and bring it to the front of the song and its amazing.
Matched? Zach sounded TAME compared to Denzel
Zack didn't go in with fury in this song, it was more hip-hop style.
If Denzel Curry did a whole album of Rage covers, I’d be more than happy about that decision.
I wouldn’t mind if he toured with Prophets of Rage!!
but man that guitarist is so underrated he actually went off
Harts
@@javatreecko Yes. A god
yeah i saw Harts at Caloundra playing his Harts Plays Hendrix show and he is INSANE
the keyboard player too mate
Kalachuchi Sun yeah, like me in a group assignment
He sounds so aggressive in the cover but he’s the most chill dude right here lmao
I know right
that’s vocalists for you, darius tehrani is chill as fuck
He looks chill like Gon in ep 131
@@sp0inkzter Wow cool to see a member of SPITE CULT haha I just saw them last month and met Darius he was so chill he just complained to me that florda where the show was that florida weather is to hot haha
When he mentioned Korn, Pantera, N64, Mugen from Samurai Champloo, he's like me but he's more talented.
N64 is actually one of his first mixtapes/albums but I’m sure he played N64 too lmao
@@Josh-dy4lq
Of course he did.
Like I already loved him, found him just recently, love especially the Unlocked project with Kenny Beats, knew he was into anime and manga, DBZ etc but HOLY SHIT SAMURAI CHAMPLOO!!! SC is my top 5 favorite anime no competition there and the fact ZEL knew about it made me a fan beyond grave. This one shit made my entire day :D
I really admire his confidence and certainty of his art's quality without arrogance or pretense. That cover really rips and it's motivating to see an artist accept their success without being bashful or overly humble. He truly believes in his work and is not apologetic about it.
Mugen from Samurai Champloo... This guy really have the best taste in everything that has to do with entertainment
word, Mugen is awesome
No cap!
fr, such a good call out. mugen def fought with bulls on parade- Edo Japan style anger and tenacity. And Jin would probably have like mozart as his music.
Frfr. Bro has a gon and Killua from HUNTERxHUNTER tattoo lol undabatedly one of the goats of anime
Who actually hates this cover?
No one?
Good.
Just 60 wankers downvoting it so far. LOL. F'em. Great metal cover.
@@trm1361 that's how you know they have terrible taste in everything
Only because the guitarist used automatic wah pedal mann that guitarist rocks but pedal 😢😢😭
Dope cover.
Met this man in LA when he set up a kickball game. Only about 50 people showed up, after the game he was talking to us about his situations and the anime’s he likes. Very humble guy in real life, I love him 👏🏼
what make he even cooler he mentioned mugen from samurai champloo one of the greatest anime characters.
he has great taste
I heard that and had to rewind it to make sure i wasn't hearing things lol
Yess dude Im glad someone else noticed that one of my all time favorites
he's correct
Love Denzel. Way overlooked. Dude released on of the best rap albums of the decade with TA13OO
Hell yeah
My rap album of the year in 2018
Imperial was amazing too, TA1300 broke him more out into the mainstream though , amazing album
@@bul1yy everything he’s released since has been amazing as well. I love Zuu especially.
Im a mom so dont laugh but i just heard the cover today and i am totally blown away. He killed it. He seriously murdered it. Best cover of any cover ive ever heard.
Denzel raps in impact Font.
I saw him as an opener and he started to play this but then he cut it a few minutes in because the pit wasn’t feeling it, it was really disappointing because he does this cover so well.
Concert goers who don't show support for openers are so corny
What a lame pit
What the hell was wrong with the pit?
That wouldn’t have been the Billie Eilish tour by any chance would it?
@@zw_ncfc Shiееееееееt, it really might have been, huh? That's just too funny an image, dude
this man really just mentioned samurai champloo
The band killed it too. Denzel was on fire!
If this isn't in the top 10 in the hottest 100, I'll be so dirty.
top 3 easy
and... top 1
Rob Clifford 100 Warm Tunas currently has it leading the voting
Nice insight with it landing @ 5
Are you clean now?
I listened to the first part of this interview and thought "all he's going to do is just copy it" give me a break. Then I listened to the track. He OWNED IT. Awesome cover.
Absolutely iconic
Damn. Not a huge rap fan, but it’s really sick to know rappers like this have a passion with music like metal and stuff too. Open minds like this are what the music industry needs!
Listen to Run the Jewels. They are secret metal heads and try to channel that vibe
I wouldn't say metalheads.... EL-P is more into industrial... Check out I'll Sleep When You're Dead, absolutely brutal.
I know who I’m voting for in the hottest 100
Was my #1
Loved that little Samurai Champloo reference 🔥
Denzel like a land mine, nothing but silence at first, and then out of nowhere he pops off.
Denzel Curry just became one of my favorite artist by just saying that he listens to Pantera and I also got introduced to Pantera by DBZ with the song 10's
Broly's LSSJ transformation is my all time favorite
@@joshmorris1637 My Skin is cold / Transfusion with somebody/ morose and old/ drop into fruitless diet
That transformation is intense and it gives me chills every-time I watch it, it never gets old
i still have the movie
@@anthonytpark Me too, matter of fact I have all 3. I love the Super rendition of Broly but Z Broly was a fucking savage
My man listens to Pantera AND Korn 🤩 Mad respect
This guy with that band need to make an album . Even a covers album would be amazing. He rocks harder than most rock singers . Wow.
Mugen referenced, instantly has my respect.
YESSSSS! Thankful for this vid! Need this song streaming! Download to my phone would be awesome!
And RATM announced a reunion a few days ago too! I'm so fucking excited! I saw Prophets Of Rage in August and it was insane! Met the whole band afterwards. Tom is a real inspiration but to hopefully now be able to see RATM with Zach, LIVE?! 🤯
I've been waiting to hear additional information about this cover
He is great at music and is an intelligent and beautiful man
With these riots now it’s insane looking back. Love this man, his bulls on parade cover was on another level of music
I feel like mugen everyday to bro
He did AMAZING holy cow! I get chills every time I listen to his version!
Love LOVE Love this cover so much! Original songs by D.Curry are also fire!
the best triple j cover hands down. he is so versatile and talented. I want a metal/rock album from him in the future
„I’m like Mugen from Samurai Champloo“ as if I wasn’t already impressed enough with him
Would love to see some shit from Denzel featuring de la Rocha.
100% want Denzel to metal rock everything up. I respect his outlook on being different and being very honest about his feelings, changing and progressing in his own way.
Loved the cover, loved the interview... such a measured performance and yet, as he says, intense. Coming back to this is a real, brutal treat.
RATM got me into politics. Their message was next level political anarchist.
hardline, hardline after hardline
"Some of those who work forces
Are the same thay burn crosses"
RATM is Marxist, if anything (which isn't a bad thing)
Hi delivery as an artist in this Like a Version was off the hook. Pure 100% commitment and hard work. Really paid off. Well done!
I like how at the end he just walked off like "yup, I did that, what's next"
For fans of the cover search 'Denzel Curry - Ultimate (BADBADNOTGOOD SESSIONS OFFICIAL VIDEO)' if you haven't already seen it you're welcome! 🔥
Wow! thanks man!
That's bloody awesome cheers mate!
This song meant a hell of a lot to me and my friends when it came out - It''s the sound of my youth. Never thought any other version would stand up. I owe one Denzel, and band, a schooner if he ever comes back down under. Cheers.
Man, this guy have got talent and he explained very well. So, well done sir ! 01:50
He really can do everything. Limitless. My respect for him increases every video I watch
You did a great job, dude. I want a full cover album. Anybody else?
That cover was insane! If you're a rage fan or even just a music fan you need to hear it!
One of the best we’ve had, nice work.
This man throws out anime references every other line, hot damn(no hate, I appreciate a non-closeted weeb).
Karl Liebknecht He isn’t a weeb though? There’s a difference between watching anime and being obsessed with Japanese culture above all else (which is the actual definition of the word).
I’ve watched the video few times in a row, before watching that and super sayian rage is a spot on depiction. That’s what I’ve been feeling through the entire song.
Amazing performance.
My favourite cover by far. Put it on regularly.
I’m so glad I saw this on my recommend. I loved this cover when I first saw it. Does anybody know if he does any more metal/rock/rap stuff?
Oh please cover "I'm Broken" by Pantera.. anything by Pantera. That'd be great.
ibladesi i agree anything by pantera would be sick
Yessss!
Id rather him not piss off oldheads in metal
@@BigMacSoss you would be amazed how many oldheads in metal worship pantera
@@BigMacSoss also pantera is early 90s.
I this cover live yesterday. It was absolutely insane
This was sooo dope. He did an amazing job!
This is a like a miles better version of Genius verified
Yea this cover was sick. Nothing else to say except thanks to you, Denzel, and everyone else involved in making it happen.
That was some of the dopest shit I ever seen Denzel do. Gave me chills.
You slayed it!! I'm feeling that denzel curry metal album.
DC is one of my favourite recent discoveries in hip hop, his bars are 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
two things I need:
1. RATM + Denzel Curry
2. A metal album by Denzel Curry
This guy is massively talented. I was blown away with his performance
I've never heard of this guy until I watched the RATM cover just now. I'm not sure what his other music sounds like but he killed it. Great cover. Made it his own.
It your acceptable to other music genres take a listen to his album TA13OO. It’s one of the greatest hiphop albums of the last decade, definitely worth a listen.
The anger he channelled into his performance felt very, very real. Quite amazing. And it's not that those things are happening again … they never really stopped.
your verse was sick
you really made one of my fav song into another powerhouse
100% best BOP cover i've ever seen.. love that he was into Korn and Pantera def shit I listened to growing up and still do to this day
One of the best covers i've ever heard
Finally !!! I think it’s the best cover that’s ever been done ✅ crazy shit
It's great that he knows how great it is.
i love this man so much
Man you’re amazing and talented!!
Was superb, one of the great covers of all time
That DBZ and Samurai Champloo love!
This cover got me fully into Denzel's music. Heard Clout Cobain a few times but god damn.
done R.A.T.M justice
better than the original. there, i said it.
Let me guess, you're still in your 20s right?
A worthy extra verse
Boy I bet he feels even more some type of way with all this shit going on now. Denzel speaking on all this before it even happened
No joke. I feel awful because I didn't take in what Denzel was saying at the time the way we are taking it in now. it's quite sad it took 5/6 months from this video for what is happening now, to happen. We need to do better.
They killed it🔥🔥🔥
My fav like a version for sure!
I'm so glad he brought the intensity. So many people cover rage and don't bring the rage.
One of the best covers I've heard, period. Curry killed with his energy and tone. The lame sounding "wah" effect was the _only_ thing that kept it from being truly great IMO.
getyourkicksagain yea man, totally agree. Was it just a stock auto wah?
@@LeMouvementNZ Yeah, you're right, I hadn't even noticed. He just stomps it and steps back, so auto-wah. He's a good guitarist, his solo part is okay, but I guess he couldn't nail the wah part. edit: Just re-watched it and he does use the wah at the end, so IDK WTF
Yea the wah wah in the intro was terrible. Yet in the rest of the song it's fine. Don't get it. The intro is the part youd want to be 100% nailing surely? . Great cover all the same, thought the band did an amazing job despite the wah intro being off. Denzel sung it better than Zack. Seriously. It was that fucking good. His energy is on a different level from anyone.
I honestly am happy with Curry sticking to rap. I listened to his hip hop records last night and they are stellar. A metal album would be cool but he should do what he wants, an artists feels it, and I can see that in his RATM cover and his records, cool dude.
Running round the family!
Nice to see his fan base growing man he deserve it
ALSO listen to Nostalgic 64!!
I would love a metal album from Denzel
My favourite cover of this track! Wow
Love this
Makes it so much better
Beautiful.
Absolutely RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING COVER.
Denzel Fire🔥
No wonder i fw dude so tough bro has amazing taste in music and anime. Pantera and korn were legit 2 of my all time favorites growing up . Shit still are, as a guitar player dimebag was my idol
His range is insane his voice is fire
You did the song justice & more!
YOUR ANGER IS A GIFT
