Spotify has put together their holiday playlist. As you know, you can never start hating Christmas music too early. The playlist contains the typical Christmas covers from artists like Miley Cyrus (who is country again), Norah Jones, Wyclef Jean, Jack Johnson, Wolf Alice, and many more. For the most part, the playlist is kinda generic. There are some standout tracks, like Wolf Alice's vintage sounding cover of "Santa Baby." However, the cover of "Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer" by none other than DMX was an instant standout. All minute and 36 seconds of the song are pure holiday gold. With the festive beat and unmistakable DMX growl, this cover of "Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer" is a must have for this year's holiday season. The only downside is the cover lacks DMX's trade mark barking.
This is not the first time the rapper covered the classic Christmas tune. In a 2012 video, DMX covered the song in the studios of Power 105.1. The Spotify cover is in the same vein as the cover DMX did in the video, just with a little more polishing and studio magic. Listen the DMX cover plus the rest of the playlist below.
