This week in Rock Band, were bringing you MORE content just in time for spring break. A song from Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ft. Ray Dalton and a Rewind track from Paramore will make sure youve got something fun to do with all your free time this week.
First up is Cant Hold Us by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ft. Ray Dalton, from their Platinum-selling debut The Heist. The track hit #1 on the Hot 100 and went on to sell over 4 million singles. Cant Hold Us had an equally strong streaming performance, being crowned Spotifys most-streamed song of 2013. Proving to be a force in other medias, the music video was nominated for (and won) multiple awards including an MTV VMA for Best Hip-Hop Video. In gameplay, the song features rapid-fire rapping during the verses, requiring breath control. It also bounces quite a bit from rapping to melodic singing, so theres no room for slack. The drums are tough, with scattered, fast disco beats throughout the song.
Originally appearing on the Rock Band 2 soundtrack, Paramores Thats What You Get joins the DLC library this week as the latest Rewind track. Hailing from their double-platinum sophomore album, Thats What You Get was one of three songs from Riot to hit the Billboard Hot 100 chart while selling over 1,000,000 units. Strong harmonies make the song a good time for everyone, while the guitar carries the song forward. The drums are tons of fun during the verses, giving you some tricky bass patterns. |
