Don’t get the title mixed up, Diplo isn’t collaborating with Led Zeppelin, however he could be with the band’s member Robert Plant!
In an interview with KROQ’s Kevin & Bean morning show, Diplo talked about a variety of topics including his work with Madonna and how he doesn’t want to get “any more famous.” Among the topics, Robert Plant came up.
“I was on tour with Robert Plant down in South America and we never did anything together, I just wrote that on my Instagram,” [Diplo] said. “It seemed like it was so insane that no one would take it seriously but now I’m actively going to look for him to do a collaboration.”
“The reason I even approached him backstage is because he beat me for the GRAMMY Record of the Year four years ago (The Diplo-produced “Paper Planes” lost to Plant and Alison Krauss’s “Please Read the Letter” in 2009 for Record of the Year) and I told him that was my only chance to to get that award and you and Alison Krauss ruined it for me, but I still want to get a photo with you anyway.”
“He’s so awesome and he has just such a good vibe,” Diplo [continued]. “He didn’t really know who I was but he spent like a half hour talking to me about whatever, and I thought that was just so cool.”
“His excitement about music and his eyes is still there and I love that. It gives me faith in my future, you know?”
Diving in to the experience the two musicians put together would have, collaboration would be nothing short of amazing. However fans may have to wait a while before that becomes a reality.
