Bastardisation

To bastardise something.
To make something very uncool out of something that used to be cool.

"Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice is a bastardisation of a Queen's "Under Pressure".
"I'll Be Missing You" by Diddy and Faith Evans is a bastradisation of "Every Breathe You Take" by The police.
