Yes, you read that right. A Korn remix of Rihanna's hit single is on Cool New Music on Alternative and Active.

 Let's see if this can outdo Buckcherry's Icona Pop remake from last year.

This could be an error AGAIN, but since this isn't on other formats, I assume this is correct  |

Her voice is too annoying and the lyrics are trash. In a just world, this wouldn't be a hit anywhere. Nothing alternative but the added guitars and drums. Download? Not in this lifetime.

So many doctors @_@.
Also, this kinda sucks. Can't say I don't want to see it chart, though. I'm in the minority here, but I always think it's kind of cool when artists that aren't traditionally alternative chart on the format (a la Katy Perry, Deadmau5, Ellie Goulding, etc.). I think I'd rather see this go Top 40 than T-Shirt Weather (or any other generic indie song bubbling below) just because it has a different sound.

You're not alone there. I always find it fun when every once in a while a random electronic/hip hop artist gets a charting alternative entry (it also makes for some for additional variation on the format ) |

LMFAO, this sounds copy and pasted off of a 1999 album track. Exactly what audience do they expect this to appeal to?!

I don't mind this getting added to Alternative either as it's something different. The song itself sucks major ass, but I like that Korn brings a harder sound that we don't see often on Alternative anymore rather than another generic indie song.

I'm conflicted. On one hand, Korn is basically the band that got me into music. On the other hand, "Bitch Better Have My Money" is probably the worst song I've listened to this year.
...
Nope, can't get past how awful the original song is.

I'm thinking Rihanna seriously flat out bought the entire Alt station adding this to their playlist . I mean the entire building...and I'm saying that as a complete joke ,but seriously WTF Alt?  |

 Oh RihRih, what is this?! I can understand that she's all boss ass bitch in the music video and stuff, but that doesn't give her carte blanche to subject the Alt format to this tomfoolery and nonsense. And why oh why did Korn have to be brought into this?! I wonder if she was taking a page from Madonna's book by doing a Rock remix of a single? Madonna famously had a Rock remix produced of her Hip Hop/Electronic/Acoustic "American Life" which actually worked and was performed on tour. |

Sorry to bump, but with this being pulled from Cool New Music on both Active and Alternative, it's safe to say that this did nothing. |
