The Legendary Coolio Hit Single “Gangsta’s Paradise” Returns In Danceable Livery
Bodybangers and Lotus team up for an official post-mortem collaboration and a remake of the platinum-awarded hit record “Gangsta’s Paradise” by Coolio.
“Gangsta’s Paradise” was originally part of the soundtrack for Michelle Pfeiffer’s movie “Dangerous Minds.” Celebrated with multiple awards, it also won a Grammy in the category “Best Solo Rap Performance” in 1996.
The track kickstarted Coolio’s career on a global level and is one of the most-played Rap tracks to date. Coolio’s sudden death in September 2022 shocked fans around the world – The production of this remake was started in 2022 and the producers decided now to pay tribute to this legend.
The Cologne-based DJ- and producer team Bodybangers is certainly not a new name in the Dance Music game. With more than 100 official remixes and several single and album releases the duo generated over 150 million streams and build up a big monthly streaming community.
Lotus is a force of nature to watch. The German-American DJane is with 700,000 monthly listeners one of the names in the female House scene. Collaborations with acts such as Timmy Trumpet, Charming Horses, Stefy De Cicco, or Darius & Finlay she is growing her profile steadily.
