Ginuwine’s “Pony” Deconstructed Through Dubstep (Remix)

text: Colin McLaughlin

You know how sometimes you’ll play games with people where they throw out an idea or a word at you and you have to say the first thing that comes to mind? Well I think that if someone ever said, “favorite beat” I would say Ginuwine’s (or Timbaland’s because he produced it) “Pony.” I hate playing favorites because, for me, the best is always in a state of flux, but every goddamn time this song comes on I can’t help be blown away by it. It’s the kind of beat that requires you take the rest of the week off when you finish it. There is just no more for you to do, it’s vacation time. And because I love this beat so much, I wanted to show you this dubstep remix of it done by Boson. But don’t worry. Even though the beat is deconstructed down to the essentials, it still retains a lot of the slow creep of the original. I think you’ll have a hard time not liking it.

song battle!!!

Two songs go in, one comes out. Pick a side.

Q-Tip - You
vs.
Common - Faithful

Columbus Short Would be an excellent match for Sam Cooke (especially if this movie was to include Sam’s Soul Stirrer years). Just as long as in the movie Sam does the singing of course lol. But as far as physical resemblance my boy Columbus Short all the way. View this clip of Cadillac Records were he played lil walter… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmxTbcnW6bY

Oops meant Aloe Blacc not Black. Sorry about the typo. If you doubt that he should play Sam check him out here on you tube singing Loving you is Killing me. The likeness is uncanny - but the voice is quite different.

I have read the Peter Guralnick book and it is thoroughly researched down to the minutest detail. Amazing.
I would go for Aloe Black because he looks so much like Sam, but for heaven’s sake why are we talking about the quality of the actor’s singing? Sam’s singing has got to be dubbed in. We want the real thing not an impersonator. There is only one Sam Cooke. The actor can act, let Sam do the songs.

John Boutte should play Sam Cooke. Except the point someone made about him dying young, this is true. Boutte may be a bit too old.

Blacks say the word 50+ times a day. Fuck the double standard, stop trying to create controversy.
