Post Malone and Bob Dylan could end up having an unlikely musical collaboration.
Post Malone Admits Getting Very Close With Bob Dylan-‘He Kind Of Slid In My DMs’
The two artists could not be from worlds apart. Bob is one of the most iconic musicians in the world after having a career that has spanned over six decades.
In comparison, Post Malone’s breakthrough occurred in 2013. With that being said, the last thing you would expect is both of them to work together.
And yet, the chances of this happening could materialise. During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Post Malone admitted that he had been talking to the musician via social media.
He said: “I have not met Bob Dylan, but we have been — I don’t know how much I’m at liberty to discuss, but we’ve been chatting. We’ve chatted… He kind of slid in my DMs.”
And on closer inspection, Bob did influence a lot of Post Malone’s music. The latter expanded on how he had covered Bob’s music, during the early parts of his career, on Youtube.
Not only that, but the musician just so happens to have a tattoo that was influenced by Bob’s music. In the picture here, we can see a tattoo of Bob on his left arm, as the musician is performing.
It is not surprising then that Post Malone has spoken fondly about the way that Bob’s music has resonated with him.
In some prior comments, he remarked: “Right now, there’s not a lot of people talking about real s—. Whenever I want to cry, whenever I want to sit down and have a nice cry, I’ll listen to some Bob Dylan.”
The fans on social media could not believe that the two artists had so much in common. After all, one is at the end of his career, while the other is just starting.
One fan wrote: “Post Malone becoming besties with Bob Dylan is so funny and random.” We will have to see if the two do end up releasing some music. So there you have it folks. What did you think about this?
