System Of A Down’s Serj Tankian and Shavo Odadjian have both shared Lil Uzi Vert’s recent cover of Chop Suey!.
The Philly rap star tackled the nu-metal classic on their newly-released album Pink Tape, calling it ‘CS’ rather than giving it its full title.
And while it’s somewhat split the opinion of metalheads for adding in AutoTuned vocals, frontman Serj took to Facebook to share our news story (thanks, Serj!) on the rendition and said that, “Covers are always the biggest compliment to artists and songwriters.” We take it he digs in, then.
Meanwhile, bassist Shavo posted it on his Instagram and asked his followers: “Have you heard the @liluzivert cover of Chop Suey?”
Elsewhere on Pink Tape, Lil Uzi Vert once again teamed up with Bring Me The Horizon on the absolutely huge Werewolf, and they worked with BABYMETAL on the song The End.
