Slash Defends Fergie’s Rock Cred

After the cover of Guns N’ Roses’ “Paradise City” from the unlikely combo of Slash, Fergie and Cypress Hill made its way online last week, former GNR guitarist Slash Hudson took to his Twitter account to defend the curvy Black Eyed Peas’ fox’s inclusion on the track. Or maybe he’s just making a general assessment about Fergie’s rock chops.

Here’s Slash’s tweet:

“Until now, not too many people have heard Fergie sing Rock & Roll but she sings it better tha [sic] most dudes I know. She’s a screamer at heart.”

Screamer or not, Prefix now notes that the guitar legend has yet to decide whether the “Paradise City” reinterpretation will end up on his upcoming Slash & Friends album.

So how does this all bode for Pussycat Dolls frontvixen Nicole Scherzinger, another less hard-rock-leaning singer who’s also said to appear on the album? Maybe this clip of Slash shredding it on stage in Vegas with Nicole last month to the slinky PCD number “When I Grow Up” will give some sort of indication:

    It's oddly fitting. Kids Incorporated was my first favorite musical outfit as a kid (the version incl. Ms. Stacey Ferg + Ryan Lambert)...and Guns N Roses became my first preteen musical obsession not long after.
  • I don't understand what this has to do with Lady GaGa.

    this is a shameful version, no musical merit whatsoever. stop destroying the classics slash. find another hobby.

    fergie sounds like shit. people say she sounds like axl rose, she dont not even close. slash is a selffish bastard cocksucker.

    this is the final nail in slash's coffin.

    for about two decades he has been running around showing his face at every event imaginable, playing uninspired little nothing songs with anybody and everybody to keep himself in the public eye.

    but nothing he could do could stave away the inevitable disclosure i.e slash is all dried up and has nothing to offer except mediocrity.
