One of two reasons:

1) He always wanted to do this kind of music, and now he is in a position to do it.
2) He is controlled by the industry and they know it will make money.

Well the first video you linked to is somebody just remixing Black Hole Sun, so I'm not sure what your point is there.

As for the other 2, I dunno, I was never a big Chris Cornell fan to begin with.

Sellout! Probably spent all his cash on hookers and blow, now he's trying to fend off Big Harry the pimp/drug-dealer, so needs all the money he can get.

Seriously, this blows any shit he has done in the past decade, except Casino Royale's song.

No freaking kidding. I could imagine a possible riot if he pulled that.

That third link sounded like Phil Collins.
*headshake*

BTW, Cornell's one of those types that should never perform outside a studio.

Chris Cornell was my hero for the longest time...even like audioslave (minus revelations) and his solo wasn't too bad but this is questionable...why cant he get back with soundgarden or audioslave or something because this pop stuff i hear is pissing me off because he is wasting one of the best voices in music

This is seriously embarrassing. I think he was going for a radiohead esque sound and instead ended up with Rkelly.

Well, he played @LA Invasion last year. He ROCKED it while he was doing AS/SG/ToD songs, as well as that one sound track song he did. But his solo work was fucking HORRENDOUS.

I saw audioslave live after their self titled cd debuted and thought it was a great show as well.

But yeah, this pop shit is like, stab in face worthy.
