In Machine Gun Kelly, Cleveland finally gets its very own Eminem: a clever, working-class white kid who fires nail-gun rhymes in dense clusters. His big-label debut ranges from inspirational and R&B-tinged (see "Invincible," with Ester Dean) to crazy-ass and Bone Thugs-n-Harmony-tinged – see "Wild Boys," where he raps, "I'm an East Side Cleveland wild boy/We got baseball bats like the Indians, and my team pop off like cowboys."

“Help Me”

Joni Mitchell wrote and recorded this song for her album Court and Spark, but she had to switch from her regular band to make the song sound exactly the way she wanted. "I had attempted to play my music with rock & roll players," she told Rolling Stone. "They’d laugh, 'Awww, isn't that cute? She's trying to teach us how to play.'" Mitchell switched to a jazz band, Tom Scott’s L.A. Express, and scored the biggest hit of her career in the process.
