Considering the unique combinations of Elton John & Dua Lipa and Coldplay & BTS, what other unique artist pairings would intrigue you?
|
Jagger, KCHZ: Ed Sheeran and Hall & Oates, they would sound great next to each other. Ariana Grande and Madonna would be very interesting. Jammer, WEZB: Ratt and Quiet Riot with an Erykah Badu beat. Buster Satterfield, WIOQ: Diplo and Axl Rose.
Jeremy Rice: Well, besides the New Order, Depeche Mode, The Cure STADIUM tour that needs to be created…Dua Lipa X Madonna, Olivia Rodrigo X Billy Joel, Kendrick Lamar X Muse, The Kid Laroi X Def Leppard, Bieber X Hall & Oates.
Bartel. WKTU: Rihanna and Janet, Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo, Doja Cat and Pussycat Dolls. Josh Wolff, WAEB: I would love to hear two Queens of Pop from back in the day team up, Madonna and Paula Abdul. |
Rick Vaughn, KENZ: Beastie Boys and Ed Sheeran, I bet they could do something pretty dope. Ed’s got some flavor!
Mike O’Donnell, WKRZ: Olivia Rodrigo & Green Day. Doja Kat & Timbalake. Joey Brooks, WKSS: Maneskin and Frankie Vali & The Four Seasons doing “Beggin.” Little Nas X and Prince, two artists that know how to push the envelope.
Matt Johnson, WPLW: I would like to hear Dave Grohl do an entire album with Pop contemporary artists like: Lil Nas X, Taylor Swift, and Marshmello. Randi West, WRMF: Adele and Snoop Dogg.
Brian Mack, WXXL: John Lennon & Paul McCartney would be pretty amazing! Lee Abrams mediavisions: David Gilmore and Jon Anderson. Java Joel, javajoelmurphy@gmail.com: I’d like to see Morgan Wallen & DaBaby team up for a cover of “Ebony & Ivory” with piano by Elton John. Adam Rivers, WKCI:Eminem and Walker Hayes. |
Fred Deane, DMS: McCartney and Lennon were the best music duo EVER, and I’d love to match them up with some contemps. How ‘bout Lennon and Ed Sheeran in one sense, and then Green Day on the edgier side. I personally would love that combo. For Paul, I’d go Paul and Taylor Swift, that would blow my mind they’d be so good together, then have him rock out with twenty one pilots or Imagine Dragons.
Jon Zellner, iHeartMedia: At this point, any heritage band or artist with Olivia Rodrigo, The Weeknd or Lil Nas X. Valentine, WBHT: *NSYNC teaming up with Doja Kat, and I want to see The Kid Laroi and Britney Spears.
Chris Michaels, FM100: Steven Tyler is one of my favorites. I’d love a Steven Tyler/Justin Timberlake collab. Fish, WKRZ: Here’s a real mash-up, Metallica with G-Eazy. In all reality though, I’d love to see Fletcher and Marshmello together. |
Rich Davis, KDWB: When I was in Nashville, I had the pleasure to see a Crossroads taping of Taylor Swift and Def Leppard sharing a stage together and that was pretty spectacular. What made it even more special was that Taylor sent me a Thank You card after the show and she knew how big of a Def Leppard fan I was, so she included four of their guitar pics in with the card.
Jonathan Shuford, WRVW: Fallout Boy with Olivia Rodrigo. I think Michael Jackson with Dua Lipa would be awesome, even though that’s never going to happen. Bruce Springsteen and Ed Sheeran!
Guy Zapoleon, Zapoleon Consulting: I think Christina Aguilera has been unfairly relegated to the AC heap (same with P!NK) and has such an amazing voice. I’d love to see her sing with someone like Dua Lipa (my favorite artist today). Speaking of a throwback pairing how about Ed Sheeran/Imagine Dragons or even Mumford & Sons/Cat Stevens. Mumford & Sons should be getting airplay right now with the theme from award winning and hottest TV show on the planet Ted Lasso.
Jana Sutter, WXXL: Taylor Swift with Stevie Nicks, especially with the folklore vibe that Taylor is into right now, that would be pretty cool. Maroon 5 and Darius Rucker, I’d love to see what they would come up with.
Drew Heyman, WHYI: Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo would be cool. I feel like it’s coming since they’ve developed a friendship.
R Dub, Z90: The Old School Hip-Hop fan in me would just die if all of a sudden LL Cool J or Q-Tip popped up as part of an Ariana Grande song. Someone make it happen!!!
Mike McVay, McVay Media: I’d love to hear P!NK and Dave Grohl. She has an amazing voice as does he. Few know of Grohl’s range because they only know of him with the Foo Fighters or Nirvana. I was at the Music Cares banquet a couple years ago, during a salute to Lionel Richie, Grohl sang “You Are.” When he came out on stage I started to Tweet, “No way is Dave Grohl going to cover Lionel Richie.” Then he started singing and did a cover of “You Are.” He nailed it. I deleted and never sent that Tweet.
Kobe, WZNE: I’d love to see either a new spin on a classic like Marshmello remix, something by Michael Jackson or something from two totally different genres like Billie Eilish with Travis Scott or Drake.Next Week’s Question Of The Week:
