Brockhampton Hollywood Swinging

Kool & The Gang are one of the most legendary funk groups of all time and their song “Hollywood Swinging” has been a staple of pop culture. This song has appeared in games like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as well as countless movies. Now, the song has been reappropriated by Brockhampton who are covering it as part of the soundtrack of Minions: The Rise Of Gru.

The song contains the instrumental everyone knows and loves, all while featuring the voices of Kevin Abstract, Don McLennon, and Matt Champion. This is a cover that will likely polarize fans of the original, but given this is a kids movie, it shouldn’t be surprising that Brockhampton was asked to give their interpretation.

Brockhampton – Hollywood Swinging (prod. Jack Antonoff)

Lyrics

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract]
And, hey, hey, hey
What you got to say? (Uh)
I said, “Hey, hey, hey” (Huh)
What you got to say? (Woo, yeah)
Hollywood
Hollywood swinging (That’s nice)
Hollywood
Hollywood swinging (Hollywood swinging)

[Verse 1: Matt Champion(?) & JOBA]
And I’m walkin’ down the street
Movin’ my hips and my feet
Don’t talk to me when I’m dancin’
I wanna say, “Hey” (Give me my crown)
I don’t have the time (Give me my crown)

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract]
I said, “Hey, hey, hey” (Huh)
What you got to say? (Woo, yeah)
Hollywood
Hollywood swinging (That’s nice, ooh)
Hollywood (Ooh, ooh, ah, ah, ah)
Hollywood swinging

[Verse 2: Dom McLennon & Kevin Abstract]
Yeah
Came a real long way to make it here
Ain’t nothin’ you could do to change it here
It’s a party on the moon, the gang is here
No games in here, we reign in here
Ten toes on the roof, we hang in there
It’s so tragic you can never take it there
Yeah, old, new feelings we chasin’ here
No games in here, we reign in here
(Hollywood swinging)
(Hollywood swinging)
(Hollywood swinging, Hollywood swinging)
(Hollywood swinging, Hollywood swinging)

[Outro: JOBA]
Where is my crown?
Give me my crown
This is my town
You’re in my town
