In a new chat with Q101, Disturbed frontman David Draiman shared his thoughts on rapper Kendrick Lamar and revealed that Disturbed has a new song they think would work well with a rapper.
“It’s something we’ve actually been thinking about pretty seriously,” the frontman said during the interview. “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’ or ‘Bring The Noise.’ It’s very much like that. It’s about unity. It’s about all about bringing people together.”
The singer explained why Lamar is the perfect fit. “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.”
Draiman added, “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.”
While Lamar hasn’t been active in the rock music industry other than working with Bono on his song ‘XXX’ from the album ‘Damn.,’ many rockers have recently shared their thoughts on him after his Super Bowl Halftime performance. Both Kid Rock and Ted Nugent were dissatisfied with the performance. Meanwhile, Michael Sweet said he appreciated Lamar more than ever now.
In other news, Disturbed recently released a new track titled ‘I Will Not Break,’ the band’s first release on its own label, Mother Culture Records.
