Fugazi vs. Destiny’s Child “Independent Room”


A legendary mash-up combining the vocals from Destiny’s Child’s “Independent Woman Part I” with instrumental excerpts from Fugazi’s “Waiting Room”, assembled by remixer Party Ben (the same dude who combined Green Day’s “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” with Oasis’s “Wonderwall”).. When I first caught wind of this mashup in 2004, I remember sending the link via e-mail to Guy Picotto, one of Fugazi’s two singer/guitarists, and he said (with all modesty – Fugazi aren’t known for their big egos) it was one of the best mash-up’s he’d ever heard. No response as yet from Beyonce or anyone else in Destiny’s Child. I threw this video together because I didn’t find a representation of it anywhere on Ye Olde YouTube. The separate elements of this track are (c)2002 Columbia Records and (c)1987 Dischord Records respectively.
