In this cover of the song "Gin & Juice" by Snoop Dogg, the Gourds use an unusual technique to mix the two songs. Unlike the other songs on my playlist, the Gourds sing Snoop Dogg's lyrics in "Gin & Juice" and create background music to go along with the lyrics. The song is extremely comical in that it blends the normally un-offensive tone of country music with the explicit lyrics of West Coast Rap. Overall, the song signifies hip hop's influence on other musical genres, and demonstrates a common bond between two vastly different cultures.
