Fred Durst Welcomes Major Rapper for New Musical Gathering


Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit has invited rapper Lil Wayne to help him initiate a new musical “gathering” for artists who are often excluded from mainstream events.

Wayne shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) over the weekend expressing his feelings about being left out of major events like Coachella and The Grammys.

“It’s truly a humbling experience when events like Coachella & the Grammys come around & like clockwork, I’m uninvited & uninvolved. I appreciate my position or space I hold in ya heart & mind if so bc you’re the humbling experience that’s timeless & 4dat I thk u. Iaintshitwithoutu,” the rapper wrote.

Durst invited Wayne to collaborate on creating something for other artists who find themselves in similar situations during mainstream music industry events.

“Let’s start our own experience gathering and our own acknowledgment event to welcome all of the uninvited — I’ve got a couple ideas I’ve been working on for quite some while now — happy to elaborate if ever interested — sending good vibes,” the vocalist replied.

However, they did collaborate on a song — Lil Wayne was featured on Limp Bizkit’s 2013 single “Ready to Go.” They were label-mates at that time, as Limp Bizkit had signed a brief deal with Cash Money Records in 2012.

“It sounds like a monster, it literally sounds dangerous,” Durst told Billboard about the track prior to its release. “It sounds like that left of center, that place of discomfort that created rock ‘n’ roll, created the (heavy) metal, where it all spawned from.”

Durst praised Cash Money Records during the same interview because he felt the label “enabled me to make my rock music in a hip-hop fashion.”
