Hip-Hop Made: Pete Wentz on a Fall Out Boy 'Collision Course'

Hip-Hop Made - A podcast by Audacy

Categories:

Continuing our celebration of 50 years since the birth of Hip-Hop on Audacy's Hip-Hop Made, Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy weighed in on which artist he would consider doing a Linkin Park/Jay-Z Collision Course-style project with if ever given the chance. Chicago rockers Fall Out Boy, with their Alternative flavor and Pop sensibilities always on full display, are no strangers to the Hip-Hop side of things. Aside from counting the genre among their many influences, the band notably offered up in 2015 their American Beauty/American Psycho remix album Make America Psycho Again featuring verses from Migos, Wiz Khalifa, Juicy J, Azealia Banks, and more. If given a chance to create a mashup album akin to the incredible Linkin Park and Jay-Z collaboration Collision Course, FOB's Pete Wentz admits, "I think people would say Lil Wayne or something like that, but I truly think what would be the most interesting one, and thinking of [singer] Patrick [Stump], would be Kid Cudi probably... Kid Cudi/Fall Out Boy I think would be interesting." Words by Joe Cingrana Interview by Mike Adam
