Jesswar Tackles A Limp Bizkit Classic For The Return Of Triple J Like A Version

Fijian-born rapper Jesswar has gifted the nation with an absolute doozy for the return of Like A Version, dropping a cover of Limp Bizkit’s iconic 2000 rager ‘Rollin’. Backed by a three-piece band and DJ, the rapper made easy work of Fred Durst’s lines whilst her crew held it down, with the final result being both rawer and punkier than the original superhit.

Speaking on the making of the cover the rapper, real name Jessica Koroi, noted the originals’ seamless blend of rap and rock for a maximum adrenaline hit, as well as citing the nostalgia of the early 2000s.
