Collaborations between huge artists always make for momentous events. Cultural milestones that join fanbases and genres for a gorgeous union of music. It’s a beautiful thing, and YouTuber Daniel Schwind (aka XYClanKILLER2) had proven that such collaborations can happen between any artist, even when they aren’t involved.
Specifically, old mate has done the unthinkable, mashing up a bunch of Eminem, Linkin Park and Slipknot classics, and it makes for an absolute banger and a half. The tracks involved are Linkin Park’s ‘Victimised’, ‘Don’t Stay’, ‘Points Of Authority’ and ‘One Step Closer’, Eminem’s ‘Till I Collapse’ and ‘Soldier,’ and Slipknot’s ‘Wait And Bleed,’ and it’s bloody seamless to say the least.
Standing at four-and-a-half minutes long, the song uses the most high octane parts of each artist to keep the momentum growing and ascending in gorgeous fashion. There’s also enough electric guitars and screaming to make us deaf beyond belief, but we totally don’t mind it.
The music video for the mashup is pretty genius as well, taking live footage from all three artists at their various headline shows synced to the vocals, making for a meeting of minds as the three respective legends go all the way in on their respective genres.
