    Why are people bitching about the rap part? The dude had a sick flow and had a positive message.

      I personally like it without the rap, but if it works for Steve, it works for me.

      💯People have such fixed ideas. Duke Ellington once said there are only two kinds of music - good and the other one. For me if it is musical and they have skill, it's good. Here it differs from the original and it was well done. I like jazz so I don't want every performance to sound exactly how it sounded on the radio 50 years ago. Reminds me of the comment section of The Consouls jazz covers of Persona 5 music - one of which was Price - cleverly done in 7/4 (original tune in 4) - 'The music sounds really off compared to the original tracks'. I think the person didn't realise it was jazz. 🤦‍♀

    Why is anyone upset at a reworking of ANY song? The original was already recorded, so no, NO ONE f'ed the song up. I like to add different flavors to cover songs in my band, Barcode, paying homage to the originals... Go to my channel and check our take on this one.....

    In this song Steve Miller brilliantly plays his Stratocaster way past the Stratosphere and on to the moon. Amazing! What a great blending of the hip hop sound to this. I love all kinds of music and the combination in this song pushes it all the way to Mars & Jupiter. I hear the lyrics so let's all accept each other as Americans so we can all fly RIGHT into the future. I got this on my grocery list for dinner. Let's Fly Free Forever! Ok?

    Reading these comments saddens me. Everyone is talking about how rap is bad, negative, this and that...but this guys rap was nothing but positive. Did you even listen to what he was saying??? Kinda ignorant that you call out an entire genre of music, as if all rappers talk about the same things....if you really think that, then you are definitely being fooled by the media

    @footyclub1 When I saw this (sans rapper) on Austin City Limits, it was the drummer who stood out for me too.
    Regarding the rapper here, people should relax, one verse (changing it up on a particular night) doesn't ruin a song, just makes it different.

    It's a marketing strategy..a way of forging old with new.(not that i agree with it)
    Very seldom does this work. Seal did a version of this song which sort of paved the way to what we have here.
    'The Neville Brothers' also did a version but kept it very Blues based.
    But for the full picture you might have to take this up with Steve's management.

  • @canyousmellicansmell

    Personaly I like the rap part...why just do the same stuff why not do some thing diff?....That's what seperates musicians from the rest...my mate hates the rap part in Rush's roll the bones...I love it...always try new things and experiment....Because some people can like rock and rap and then pop and dance and metal and reggea and soul and funk and latin and jazz and classical and arabic and oriental and ska and country.....thats cos music really is there life!

    Well, as much as rap isn't my thing either you have to understand this had to be part of Steve Miller's plan. Can't blame the rapper for it but maybe some of you on here are expressing other repressed sentiments. Miller's idea was to obviously bring the song into the 21st century and show that the message is still the same.
    Does it work for me? Not really because i'm a child of the 60s/70s and woud rather hear Steve's guitar work.
    But i can't blame Steve for updating it.

    In this instance, it isn't the country that's doing it.
    Don't become paranoid here. I'm not a rap fan either, infact i detest it along with the present music scene but
    do you honestly think the rapper just appeared onstage and FORCED himself onto the audience without Steve Miller's consent?

    Maybe it wasn't the greatest idea, but I honestly think rap sounds better with a guitar and drumset behind it. I can at least stand it then. I mean it sure helps that it's Steve Miller...
    I'm afraid to picture David Gilmour or Steve Howe with a rapper in front. That might just be a little too, um, frightening. Nevertheless, this song could have turned out much worse.

    Rap is poetry that should be written and put into books or written on bathroom walls... which ever is most appropriate for the material. But not put into something like this. It destroyed the mood, vibe and direction of the song. It made me stop the video and write this comment and then go to a different version. Steve Miller, please don't do this anymore. It will destroy a loyal fan base.
