Snoop Dogg and Billy Ray Cyrus have collaborated on a new smash single called “A Hard Working Man.” The iconic Avila Brothers-produced hip hop-country mashup will be released on April 2nd during Grammy weekend in Las Vegas. This however is not the first time Cyrus has decided to fuse his country music with rap.
In the United States, Cyrus’ hit remix of “Old Town Road” featuring rapper Lil Nas X went 16 times multi-platinum in 2019. “My concept of generating music has no restrictions,” Cyrus said when asked about his genre-bending approach to music. There are no rules, no boundaries, and no preconceived assumptions. Don’t try to think inside or outside the box; simply imagine there isn’t one.”
Animal Concerts, a metaverse entertainment firm, is hard at work preparing a fresh 50,000-piece non-fungible token (NFT) drop to accompany the track, adding to the excitement of the song’s launch. The artwork for this vast collection, which will be featured on Crypto.com NFT, is being created by Cointelegraph. The drop also includes a wide range of music-related items, such as festival tickets and extra tickets, as well as merch and free tickets to Animal Concerts’ “Meta-Concerts.”
Animal Concerts has made a splash with a series of high-profile live shows featuring some of music’s biggest names, including Alicia Keys, Future, and Meek Mill.
Cointelegraph and Animal Concerts will continue to collaborate beyond this drop, bridging the NFT world, the multiverse, and public utility. In the following months, the two will release other high-profile NFT collections, including collaborations with Izzy the Frenchie, a popular celebrity dog, and some of the biggest names in music.
