ICYMI: You Have To Hear This Viral Mashup of D.R.A.M. and Metro Station
02 January 2017
Mashup maestro @LeftAtLondon went viral over the weekend after posting a pretty unexpected track combining the words from D.R.A.M.'s hit "Broccoli" and the melody from Metro Station's Myspace-era, pop-punk classic "Shake It." And the weirdest part is that the two tunes turn out to be strangely in-sync, not to mention undeniably addictive, as @LeftAtLondon themselves demonstrates via ample headbobbing and mumbled ad-lib interjections. So good, in fact, that both D.R.A.M. and Metro Station RTed the video, with Metro Station even adding a little note saying it's "way better than the original."
