Pob Does Beyonce (The Remix)

I don't usually post about covers here. They happen all the time. Artists who don't have as a big of a musical library will often do covers to get their name out more. Most of the time they are either a carbon copy with a different voice, or a boring acoustic version. This isn't the case. Pob took it a step further -- a cover remix.



I can honestly say the song, Beyonce's "Best Thing I Never Had", is almost unrecognizable. The remix is done in dubstep style and comes complete with a trippy pop culture inspired video. The song may have once come from Beyonce, but Pob has taken this song, mixed it up, and made it his own.

Pob was part of a short lived yet wildly popular British group Boy Banned. Now he is trying to make it on his own, developing his solo career. He's had some nice solo tracks so far, but this really sets him a notch ahead of his peers. As far as covers go, this one is a definite stand out.

What do you think? If you like, you can give Pob's music another taste with his original tracks via his SoundCloud.
