Posted December 21, 200618 yr Source: Digital Spy The Arctic Monkeys are looking to collaborate with Dizzee Rascal, according to reports. The acts met whilst performing at this summer's Reading and Leeds festivals, and talked about the possibility of a joint venture. According to onlookers, Monkeys' lead singer Alex Turner yesterday paid the rapper a visit in London to finalise the arrangements, with results expected some time next year. Now this would be a very intresting thing. :o Mixing indie with rap. I dunno what will happen though with it. :unsure: Whether the track will be a b-side or something cause i'd doubt it would appear on the album if this went ahead. :unsure:
December 21, 200618 yr NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Indie + Rap = c**p.. it never works :( I wish Dizzee Rascall would p*** off. He's so damned irritating. He ruined the 2004 version of "Do They Know Its Xmas" for me. Arsehole :angry: Edited December 21, 200618 yr by Y!kes

Arsehole :angry: I think it would be very intresting. :o Dizze Rascal is a unique rapper and I think his and Alex's voices would go very well together. ^_^ Obviously theres the chance that if this goes ahead it will complete rubbish though. :lol:
December 21, 200618 yr Yes. I have concluded through scientific experimentation and probability that there is a 97.4% chance of this record either being complete $h!te or 'a bit cack'... Come on Arctics, i'm riding on that little 2.6% :(

December 21, 200618 yr I really like Dizzee actually and I think this could be quite good personalyl :lol: certainly different anyway so I hope this goes ahead. :D
December 24, 200618 yr I'm not the biggest fan of rap music to say the least but i've always thought Dizzee Rascal was alright. I'm sure it wouldn't do his career any harm but i wonder if it will lead to loads of other artists wanting to perform with them?

I'm sure it wouldn't do his career any harm but i wonder if it will lead to loads of other artists wanting to perform with them? With The Arctics? :unsure: If so then maybe it will, but unless The Arctics rate the artists that want to perform with them, then thats the only ay a possibly duet might be on the cards otherwise they will probably just say no.
December 30, 200618 yr I think it would be interesting basing it on how the Aerosmith + Run DMC song turned out, not sure how well it would work though? The best idea would just to have it as an Arctics song and then Dizzee could rap over a guitar solo imo. :) Edited December 30, 200618 yr by TheOrdinaryArcticBoy

December 30, 200618 yr I've never thought of it that way. :o I was thinking along the lines of they were gonna do a new song but they might possibly just re-record a new song. :o I didn't mean they should cover 'Walk This Way,' if that's what it sounds like as Sugababes and Girls Aloud are doing that for comic relief. I just meant it would be a similar concept as the Aerosmith + Run DMC collaboration. :) Personally if this was going to happen I would rather the non rap version be released and they could have the rap remix as a b-side incase it didn't work out. It will probably actually be more similar to The Streets and Pete Doherty's collaboration actually.

Oh no I didn't mean that. :P I meant they might re-record a song like say IBTYLGOTDF for example but then have it rap and indie. :D
December 31, 200618 yr A collaboration with Girls Aloud would be so much more fuuun! :D Anyway I'm looking forward to eveything they will release, they ruuule :dance:
