8Eight covers Alicia Keys and...Eminem?

...and they really killed it! In a good way!

Now we all know that 8Eight is capable of some very powerful vocals as seen in their comeback stage, but they really outdid themselves with this one! During their performance on Lee Hana's Peppermint recently, the trio performed several covers like Alicia Keys' "No One", Eminem's "Stan" as well as their latest single, "Without A Heart."

I never thought Eminem's "Stan" could be turned into a powerful ballad but 8Eight attempted it--and pulled it off! Though during the "No One" performance my eye started to twitch when their rapper started killing a cat singing, the performance is definitely not one to miss!

"No One" cover.

Stan is supposed to be a lot sadder and darker but they made it sound happier.
I really like thier version but i dunno how i feel about it being so “happy”.
Still love it though! Wish they did the whole song. Mad props!

agree with #18 Stan is a rly dark song but they made the mood lighter. i think its cuz they made the tempo a bit faster.

They are very talented.
But why cover an Eminem song, blech…...

 
purplestar23's avatar

good renditions. But it was really surprising to see8eight covering an Eminem song. And it was brilliant.

they are very talented….no diss but the “stan” one was iffy (maybe cuz i really like the original and i dont like ppl making it a “go happy” crap) the “no one” was good though and the “without a heart” was awesome

You should have posted the full medley of “No One,” “Stan,” and “I Sing, Having Lost Love.”

 
MZ.YOOSU's avatar

they really didn’t cover eminem. they basically sang Dido’s part in ‘Stan’ which is really her song ‘Thank You’ and made it more heavy (added rock sounds)

Their performance was awesome!

 
loserrrxjr's avatar

reallllyy awesome performance, if only they were more well known :p

 
eumakai's avatar

Didn’t like it…8eight is one of my favorite groups but those two covers didn’t do them justice…they just ruined dido’s song~  their acapella versions of other songs are much better ~~ so disappointed watching this -__-;;

 
InnocentSorrow's avatar

They’re seriously amazing. Really respect them oi their singing was so filled of emotions I got chills.

 
davidfresh's avatar

Of course, no one can rap like Shady.
Love their new song though

 
BBSHINKI's avatar

cool i like their acoustic version of suju’s “sorry sorry”

 
travp16's avatar

Ya’ll killed it!...agaiN!! Awesomeness!!

I’m loving them more. :D
All the best to 8eight!
