Hip Hop Artist collaborations are like a packaged deal. It's honestly like Wendy's 4 for $4 but one can it enjoy endlessly. Whether it be an album, mixtape, or compilation the melodic sounds of a lyricist on lyricist or producer on producer or just any type of combo, illustrate creative assortment among the music community. Like group projects, there are some collabs where an artist receives all the credit even though they put the least work in. This could be due to album entitlement, musical status (more fame), or just critical perception. I believe in experimental sounds and am a firm believer that in order for the collab to work, some unorthodox mashups must be attempted.

1. Andre 3000 x Kaytranada

2. Daft Punk x Kendrick Lamar

3. Chance The Rapper x Erykah Badu

4. Coldplay x Kanye West

5. J. Cole x Nas

6. Lil Wayne x Travis Scott

7. Donnie Trumpet x Sza

8. Dr. Dre x Snoop Dogg

9. Desiigner x 21 Savage

10. Kanye West x Metro Boomin

11. J. Cole x Kendrick Lamar

12. Beyoncé x Jay-Z (Full album)

13. Common x Mos Def x Rakim

14. A$AP Rocky x Lupe Fiasco

15. Big K.R.I.T x ScHoolboy Q

To reiterate, these are not features. If any of these divergent artists came together for a complete project, I would be curious to indulge. Some of these creators were featured together at some point in their career and produced quality songs. For them to converge their strengths would be dope for the industry, their fans, and even themselves.
