Thanks, Twitter: Justin Bieber Will Record With Kanye
Justin Bieber and Kanye West spent part of last weekend in a Twittery
lovefest, complimenting each other's work and eventually waxing about a potential collaboration between themselves and Wu-Tang Clan's Raekwon.
Now, the speculation is a reality. "It's definitely gonna happen," Raekwon tells
XXLMag.com. "When you got these kinda talents merging together to do something exciting, I think it's something that's gonna make the fans check it out. I'm big fans of both of these guys. I think, at the end of the day, shorty is a sensation."
He added, "For them to even just have a conversation and just put my name in it it feels good. For him to acknowledge me it makes me feel good that the young generation is checking me out like that."
The tweet that started it all, below:
And Bieber's excited concurrence:
Kanyeezy and the Biebs spent about an hour sending laudatory tweets to each other Sunday morning, with Kanye writing things like, "
Your album good @Justinbieber Playing it at my crib now" and
"So bugged out me and @JustinBieber are tweeting at the same time... Social networking is pretty awesome." Bieber responded with messages like, "
I'm 16 and a fan. I'm kinda hyped u are listening to my stuff. Thank u" and "what is crazy is that I play Heartless every night in my set acoustic. this convo is crazy for me. Excited 4 ur new album."
Raekwon is psyched about the collaboration for his own reasons. "It gives me a position to play a big brother in the game. He wants my assistance or whatever he can get it. I respect him, I like his style," the rapper, nicknamed The Chef, tells XXL. "We gon' make a hit. Justin got his own fan base and me and Yeezy got our own fan base and we gon' make it happen."
What do you think, folks? Hip-hop/pop collaboration of the millennium?

You have serious problems, Andy. This has nothing to do with liberal or conservative anything.
Lita, you are the one with problems if you don't know who Kanye West is and what he does.

I'm happy for the kid's success, but if he knew how much he looked like the actress Kim Darby from the movie True Grit, I think he would get a new look. Check it out for yourselves. It's hard to tell them apart. LOL

I never thought about puke boy looking like Kim until you mentioned it, that is too funny, couldn't agree more, maybe thats her son.
Wait, West hates whitey. Why would he do something with a white kid?

Oh, Anne. Whitey? Really? You need to move out of the 1960s and into this century. Well, you and "Doctor" Laura.
Kandy is just trying to stay relevant. His 15 minutes should have ended a year ago.
because he needs to shine in other peoples lights. he cant shine on his own
He wants to do something with the Bieb because his career is in the toilet after he accosted Taylor Swift, who would let there child even be near that loon Kanye, Biebs mother is not responsible! Poor Bieb, he is being used by the nut Kanye.
