People Are Not Happy With Jamie Foxx's Remix Of The National Anthem

by Adam Pliskin

If you watched the big Mayweather-Pacquiao fight on Saturday night, you probably heard Jamie Foxx's version of the national anthem.

 

Foxx sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the showdown, and many people took issue with his take on the song.

Basically, Foxx remixed the national anthem. He changed up the melody as well as the vocals to the point where the song almost became unrecognizable.

I can only explain this train wreck so much. You're better off giving it a listen above and forming your own opinion.

Was it an innovative take on an old classic or an affront to the very principles this nation stands for?
