The latest sensational song today is the abrasive "Black Widow" by Rita Ora and Iggy Azalea. Along with the dark words; the energetic tune and gloomy chords give the song edge and grit. It seems like there could be no way to make the song beautiful. It also seems like it would be impossible to play this rap song on piano. Its like putting the left foot in the right shoe.
You really can't play rap music on piano, so there is the difficulty of playing Iggy Azalea's part. Furthermore, it just seems like it would be too edgy to work as a piano instrumental. Nevertheless, even this song can be transformed into a piano instrumental.
If you play over the synth background riff you can recreate Iggy Azalea's rap part. And the dark chords truly sound good in the lower keys of the piano. Rita Ora's part is simple to turn into a piano instrumental, and because there's so many gaps between her phrases you can even play the background riff in between the melody line.
There are truly lots of different things you could try for the accompaniment. What could work well is to follow up the gritty bass note with a lighter mid scale configuration. In other words: jump bass. In order to obtain a soft yet mysterious sound you can arpeggiate the chords. Following the bass drum rhythm for the arrangement and playing block chords could create a thicker texture.
For various intensity levels, it could be great if you combine different styles. Playing just solitary notes for the introduction could work. Then for the verse you can add a harmony note with the right hand to be able to pick up the energy a notch. In order to bring the huge chorus effect, you can play in octaves or full chords for the refrain.
In conclusion, although it seems strange for several rap songs like Black Widow to be played on piano, they may still sound great.
