Songs for the Superbowl

  By

And to conclude this edition of remix week / in honor of the Super Bowl (GO BIG BLUE!), here are some football-related tunes.

First, let us examine the ongoing evolution and remixing of Whiz Khalifa‘s Black and Yellow. This is the original, written last year for the Pittsburgh Steelers:

Wiz Khalifa - Black And Yellow [Official Music Video]

 

Then Lil’ Wayne took the beat and adjusted the lyrics to reflect support of the Green Bay Packers, and called the result Green and Yellow:

Green & Yellow (HD Music Video) - Lil Wayne 1920x1080

 

This year, Frank Henny updated it for the Giants. His version is called Blue and Red:

"Blue & Red" - ( Black and Yellow Remix) New York Giants

 

And Lil Ryan (who is not the 7 year old rapper of the same name, as far as I can tell) was one of  the many people who revised it for the New England Patriots. His version is called Red and Blue:

Lil Ryan- Red and Blue (Patriots Anthem)

 

Bonus viewing: The UN-official video, made by a high school improv class in Minnesota, for Super Bowl Hero by RAM, which is Ryan Ross (The Young Veins, Panic! at the Disco), Alex Greenwald (Phantom Planet, JJAMZ, Mark Ronson and the Business INTL) and Michael Runion (JJAMZ, The Chances). The song was written last year for the victorious Green Bay Packers.
