Lullabies and Love Songs

The first time I heard Nicki Minaj's 'Right Thru Me' I had to do a double take. I really dug the song but it kind of freaked me out that she was rapping over the song El Captain used to blast to get me to go to sleep. I often get nervous when pop songs sample already superb musical works, and switching up my go to lullaby song seemed mildly sacrilegious. To her credit- the song is growing on me, but it won't ever eclipse the badassness that is Joe Satriani. Compare below! (oh and the Nicki Minaj track is a free download....)
