Posted September 6, 201311 yr Adele has recorded a collaboration with the rapper Wiz Khalifa, which may appear on his upcoming album. "I got a lot of guest appearances that I've already done, but none of them have been cleared for the album yet," Khalifa told Fuse News. "I got songs with Miley [Cyrus], I got songs with Adele … I want to do something with Lady Gaga really bad." Blacc Hollywood, Khalifa's fifth full-length recording, is expected before the end of the year. It's the follow-up to 2012's O.N.I.F.C., which reached No 2 in the US but peaked at No 105 on the UK's official albums chart. That record included guest appearances by Pharrell, Akon and Khalifa's now-wife, Amber Rose. None of these cameos are on the level of Adele, whose second album, released in 2011, is already the UK's fourth-bestselling album of all time. The 22-year-old has only very rarely appeared on other people's songs, singing on tracks with Daniel Merriweather, Jack Peñate and the Raconteurs. According to an earlier interview with Khalifa, Blacc Hollywood will be a distillation of "black attitude". "[it's about] not giving a 'F' about anything," he explained to Vibe. "We're bringing that to Hollywood." Like Adele and her partner, Khalifa and Rose recently welcomed their first child – a baby boy. http://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/sep/...llaborate-track
September 6, 201311 yr SURPRISE, to say the least. I generally like Wiz, his last album underperformed so get that comeback hit, I guess! Yeah, their sons were born within months of each other so that's an interesting coincidence! (Another coincidence, just last night I saw a youtube clip of Big Sean addressing rumours of him collab'ing with Adele...apparently not true)
September 6, 201311 yr *.* A$AP Rocky and Florence have a song on his last album which is an ODD combination on paper but it works really, really well. Hopefully this will follow suit too. More nervous about Miley getting her "urban" roots out again :/
September 9, 201311 yr A few guest appearances would be good as it would fill the gap before she releases her third set whenever that will be.
September 14, 201311 yr Whilst Adele doesn't need to keep her name out there, everone knows who she is and 1/5 households bought her album last tim around, doing rap features is how to keep/ build street cred. It's what gaGa shouldve done before ARTPOP but she didn't compromise een for that brilliant Betch Dinet il My Vibe song.
October 4, 201311 yr I generally like Wiz, his last album underperformed so get that comeback hit, I guess! Now that We Own It is back in the charts, I remember that Wiz already had his comeback hit this year! :lol: But if forgetting that quickly is any indication, he'll need another comeback hit anyway
