Q-Tip & Demi Lovato - Dont Go Breaking My Heart

QTip is a consistently damn good producer.
I have never really heard Demi's voice before.
She's a dope vocalist.

Interesting take on the Elton John classic. Lovato is a great vocalist wide range of material she can do. Could have been a more interesting video though, Everyone seems to do the same video when remaking an Elton song or doing one of his videos that never had a video.

i love Demi Lovato, and i was always a Tribe fan, and an Elton John fan.. but this remake is awful...QTip sounds comically horrible while "trying" to sing, and Demi Lovato sounds too damn loud and she seems to be hitting some frequencies that irritate my ears on this one... did Sir Elton hear this shit b4 he green lighted it?

I dont think Elton really cares, I mean have you heard that Duets album? Fucking hideous thing he did with people butchering his own songs. So I think Elton has that same approach of he'd rather someone go off and do something totally nuts and so unlike what he did rather than try to mimmick him. Q Tip i couldnt even tell it was him if his name wasnt on it Id have no clue, and Demi again she is obviously going with what they wanted to do, but i am always interested in what she tries to cover she seems to be all over the map with her ranges and influences.

I can't play the link. But this only makes me sadder that Kamaal The Abstract hasn't put out a solo album in a decade. I hear a collabo with K-Dot is on the way.

I thought I read somewhere that this was EJ's least favorite of his popular songs.... maybe thats why he keeps letting people do ridiculous things with it.

I still jam to this every once n a while if I'm lit and feeling silly:

He also did the tune with RuPaul:
