A$AP Rocky would like to work with Morrissey

At 28:30
"I might have to f*** with Morrissey, on some Smiths shit," he said. "Make some emo, real, retro-infusion, motherf***in' 2018 shit, man."

He's worked with Rod Stewart and Moby, so why not Moz? There is a huge demographic to be gained here.

Who is this person? I feel about 147.

Are they a culturally illiterate deadbeat? Then it's a great match.

 

[Try Anything Twice]

Can’t see that leading anywhere good.

Douche factor would be increased by 10. Bad idea.

Maybe, but then again other people have worked with Morrissey and got away with it.

I wanna hear Morrissey jump on this beat.

It’s not A$AP Rocky’s image I’m worried about. I imagine it might further legitimize him. But there are so many talented artists out there that would be a far better choice. Like nearly anyone. Can’t imagine the appeal of this to Morrissey.

A great match with you.

Here's the Rod Stewart collab:
(not my cup of tea, but got 6.5M views)

The Moby collab is more of a sampling of "Porcelain." A lot of weed seems to be an integral part of A$AP Rocky's craft:

Hard to see this happening but it might appeal to him in the no one would expect it so it wouldn’t be boring way. They couldn’t be further apart as artists. A bunch of people who would probably never be aware of morrissey, young people, would probably check out his music though

 

[Try Anything Twice]

Think about this. Who would be the one doing the favor in agreeing to the collaboration? And since both of their egos would step forward to help the guy who needs the boost, I’m guessing they would be clashing from the beginning. Plus, just yuck! The whole idea just makes me wince.

It wouldn't be boring or obvious. That's for sure.

Has Morrissey ever agreed on a collaboration on another people's terms? The people who have agreed to guest on his records have usually ended up wailing in the background like Margaret O' Hara in November Spawned A Monster or adding something unimportant to the worst track on the album (Jeff Beck on Black Cloud).

 

[Peppermint]

In his current state, I could imagine him doing it just to piss everybody off.

Not really. He turned down the Damon Albarn request but I think interlude was the last time I can recall that he attempted a duet. This would be more of a guest piece I'm thinking. I don't think he'd do it just to piss people off but he might be tempted just by the newness oddness of it. When you get older I imagine he's looking to for interesting experiences rather than legacy preservation etc. now I don't know if he'd think the results would be worth the experience hence I don't think he'll really do something like this but It might be tempting. Would certainly get some press

Truth, you Said the truth !

 

[gordyboy9]

who would want to work with someone where every second word is f*** or shit.
