This is for all the kiddies out there who either have or currently are fronting on the Beatles.
I’m not gonna try to put ya’ll on. That’s not my job. If you don’t know, anything from Rubber Soul on is worth your time. Also John Lennon solo records are all fly to some degree.
They may have started off biting Chuck Berry but the song writing team of John Lennon & Paul McCartney would go on to write one of the most impressive and influential collections of songs in the history of recorded music. Even if you can’t get down with the Beatles themselves. The songs themselves are so melodically beautiful that one simply needs to check one of the ten billion covers by ten billion different artists to hear the universality of a few perfectly placed notes.
Here’s Ghostface’s version of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”. I’m pretty sure he’s just straight rapping over an instrumental cover (If anyone knows where the original break is from hit me up.)
Also: I like it when Ghost sings.
Ghostface: My Guitar
That break is from While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Ali Vegas also did a free over it, you must hear it.
yeah I know its that song. I wanna know who’s doing it, the name of the record, etc.
When Ghost raps over full songs he lists himself as the producer. Like Holla on Pretty Toney, and Big Girl on Fishcale.
Ghost is rappin’ over a cover by Jimmy Ponder from his 1974 debut “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”. It can also be found on Dusty Fingers Vol. 3…
PS….I have an mp3 of it if you want it. Just give me an email address…
yeah! Good Looking Out. The MP3 will hold me over till I can dig up a vinyl copy. Peace Mango

Hit me Up
[…] that beat has been out since February!!!! I believe it was B-Boy Grunt (Former ML Affiliate) who posted the track on our site while it was just a Ghostface Solo joint (also a great song, by the way). This wouldn’t bother me much; but MTV put a big article up […]
