A little note to Kanye West: If you're going to do a "Bohemian Rhapsody" cover, you might want to make sure it's good, because let's be honest, the original is too flawless to be replicated. Queen singer Freddie Mercury had perhaps one of the most interestingly operatic voices out in rock music at the time, so anyone looking to recreate the famed tune better have some pipes. Which is exactly what the husband to Kim Kardashian doesn't appear to have. And that's why a deceased Mercury is laughing himself crazy at West's attempt.
Okay, not really.
The below video is actually a mashup of West singing the iconic Queen tune with little cuts of clips that show Mercury laughing, which makes it seem as if he's laughing at Kanye West.
And as we all know, West doesn't appreciate his art being mocked. So, as you might imagine, when the video goes to a live performance of "Bohemian Rhapsody," he doesn't seem to be too thrilled.
Take a look at the mashup below:

So, folks, who sang it better? Take a look at a live performance of the Queen classic and let us know:
Thoughts?
Kanye, why so serious?
Jokes aside, it should be mentioned that West is not without talent. Honestly, the guy is an absolutely amazing artist – we're just saying Freddie Mercury might have had a better singing voice. (He did...)
