During a recent interview with Chicago’s Q101, Disturbed’s David Draiman expressed interest in working with Kendrick Lamar. The frontman says the rapper “is way at the top of the list” when it comes to potential collaborations.
Draiman said the following:
“You know what? It’s something we’ve actually been thinking about pretty seriously. And Kendrick is way at the top of the list.
We have this track. It’s part of this new group of material, this new album that we have under our belt. And it’s basically like the modern-day ‘Walk This Way’ [RUN-DMC’s collaboration with AEROSMITH] or ‘Bring The Noise’ [ANTHRAX’s collaboration with hip-hop pioneers PUBLIC ENEMY]. It’s very much like that. It’s about unity. It’s about all about bringing people together. And it needs a strong rapper, whomever that might be, and Kendrick would definitely be an amazing person to collaborate with. I would love to do that. We would love to do this.
You heard it here first. Kendrick, if you’re at all interested, let’s go ahead and shock the world a little bit. Let’s let everybody know that we have more in common than we do that separates us. And let’s take our artistry to another level together. I would love to do that.”
He also confirmed that he reached out to Lamar via Instagram, but has yet to hear back:
“Nah. Who knows if the guy even monitors his own Instagram account? With somebody that big with that many people following him, I’m sure he’s got like a team of people that do all sorts of things for him. And I’m probably just a tiny little blip in a huge sea of noise. So I would imagine that didn’t cut through. But now that we’re talking about it, maybe it will. I would love for him to actually be aware of it and notice it. And who knows? Maybe we can actually do something.”
