Elton John Defends Hip Hop [News]
Sir Elton John has spoken up and defended the Hip-Hop culture. The legendary British musician also says being in the studio with rappers is “a phenomenon”.
Many people may remember Elton John when he performed alongside Eminem at the Grammys, after the release of The Marshall Mathers LP. Elton has also worked Kanye West and lended his vocals to the late 2PAc track, “Ghetto Gospel”.
“I never dismiss any form of music. I listen to everything,” Sir Elton told TeenMusic.com. “I’m on the new Kanye West record, for example. It’s a genius record. I was on the Alice and Chains record.” Elton played the piano on the star-studded “All of the Lights”. The track has been in the pipeline for a while after Elton revealed he would like to work with the likes of Kanye, Pharrell, Snoop, Timbaland and Eminem back in 2006.
“People who mock rap, and say, ‘I don’t like it,’ they should go check out Kanye in the studio rapping. Or Eminem when he’s in the studio. It’s a phenomenon,” he continued. “Don’t knock it until you’ve seen it. It may not be your cup of tea, but don’t ridicule. I find that so many of my peers of my age don’t listen to anything new. I love the new.”
Eminem revealed that Elton John played a pivotal role in his sobriety and Eminem retuned the favor when Elton entered into a civil partnership with David Furnish, sending the pianist two diamond-encrusted cock rings.
