They say that music is capable of uniting and grouping the most antagonistic differences that may exist. No matter what musical genre it is, music can always make things work. And yes, there are many examples that evidence that it is possible, but the most news in these times is the union of Paul McCartney and Kaney West.
In an interview made by Tim Minchin to McCartney through Facebook Live for NME magazine, the former Beatles declared his collaboration with West: "Only One" (2014), "All Day" (2015) and " FourFiveSeconds "(2015) and that its experimental form and so different to the one that was accustomed reminded him to the moment of the Beatles when they were recording the album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band ".
"They called me on the phone and my manager said, 'Kanye West would like to work with you.' And I said, 'Yes, we will.' I was a bit nervous at first, because I thought it could go horribly wrong. But I was intrigued to see what he was doing and how he did it. "
McCartney said he was struck by the rapper's work process: "It was a very intriguing process. Basically do not write songs, basically just talk, mix it up a bit and record everything on your phone. And then he leaves. That's basically the recording. But it was great to do it because I do not work like that. "
McCartney said that it was three months before he knew if the recordings were actually used, and when he heard the final product, he did not recognize it: "I thought 'Did we write a song? Did a recording come out of this? ' Anyway, this came and it turned out to be a Rihanna song, " said the musician referring to the song " FourFiveSeconds ".
"'Am I in this?' And West says, 'Yes, you're the one playing the guitar,' I say, 'I do not remember', and he says 'we speed it up,' " explaining that his collaboration with the rapper and pop singer was manipulated. However, he compared this process with the Beatles' recording of " Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" : "So they manipulated this kind of ... although if we talk about Sgt Pepper , we love to manipulate. So I think we would have used a lot of these tricks these days because we did speed things up a bit. " Sentenced.
