The combination of rap with rock vocals has been a recent trend in the music industry with collaborations of epic standards in the rock and rap worlds. While the two genres may seem like polar opposites combined they create a new genre of music that is unparalleled in possibilities.
The trend seems to have started with Coldplay’s Chris Martin with Kanye West collaborating. Now even Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine) and Cypress Hill are working together. The hit song “Airplanes” is also a collaboration between rapper B.O.B. and Paramore’s Hayley Williams.
So who will be the next collaboration? Could it be Death Cab for Cutie’s front man Ben Gibbard with Jay Z or perhaps the Killers lead singer Brandon Flowers with Snoop Dogg? The possibilities are endless and it’s only a matter of time before we see another collaboration of this sort.
