Ok, this might sound corny (lol), but why don't Will.I.Am and K-OS do a record together?

I have always been one of those people who wants to bring people together who have certain commonalities. I have been that way ever since I was a kid. Now that I am an adult, nothing has changed much. If two people I know resemble each other, I want them to meet; If they laugh alike, I want them to meet; If they walk alike, I want them to meet. As it goes, I have been watching Will.I.Am and K-OS for about the same amount of years now, and I have been thinking about how great a collab they would be--almost Prince and Michael proportions!!! Well, may not quite that big, but it would be, pretty big. They do more than just look alike, they both seem to share the same fashion aesthetic and seem to be on a very similar vibe overall. Anyway, my question is, has anybody else thought about what a collab between these two might look like?

Check out this pic. Judge for yourself whether they resemble one another.

Word, Sugatreats!! Might have to get up on that one!! :-).

That would be an interesting combination. K-os's Flavor with Will's Style sound delicious.

Maybe because they're one and the same person? LOL Just jokes. (tap, tap, tap) Is this thing on?

[drake]

Lol, I don't think it's on... Just a question I put out there. Hey, who knows, though, right? They my have something in the works...

GeNo is funny, and I was just thinking the same thing. I think they're split from the same chromosome (but raised by the same loctitian).
Drake, it's funny that you ask the question. I reviewed K-OS' album for The Source, gave it 3.5 mics, but found that few people in my immediate circle liked the cat's latest album, Atlantis. Thing is, the same folks were hating on Will.I.Am at the time, too. They didn't get it. Now, they're Will fans, and I bet they'd be K-OS fans as well if the brother got more shine in Detroit (note to Detroit: get with T-Dot; they got "all type a spine-tingling, bust ya s**t open beats," as Raekwon famously said).
