Music 101 in its third season, featuring Genre-Jumping: The Wild Legacy of Iconic Cover Songs.
Description
Genre-jumping through cover songs has always been one of music's most thrilling traditions, where artists step outside their comfort zones to reinvent familiar tunes in wildly unexpected ways. From Jimi Hendrix transforming Bob Dylan's folk anthem "All Along the Watchtower" into a psychedelic rock masterpiece, to Johnny Cash giving Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt" a haunting new life, these reinventions blur the lines between genres and generations. Each iconic cover becomes more than a homage—it rewrites the song's legacy, carrying it into new cultural landscapes and audiences. The wild legacy of genre-jumping covers reminds us that music is never fixed; it evolves, bends, and reshapes itself through the voices of those bold enough to reinterpret it. In the process, cover songs become both a bridge and a battleground, proving that true artistry often lies not just in creation, but in fearless reimagination.
