The hip-hop veteran has revealed he’s collaborated with the U2 frontman on the song \u2018Skyscrapers\u2019 from his as-yet-untitled star-studded new record.<\/p>\n

Speaking on N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN\u2019s ‘Drink Champs’ podcast, he spilled: \u201cIt\u2019s crazy. It got like a Miami feel to it. I feel like I want to shoot the video here.\u201d<\/p>\n

DMX, 50, and Bono, 60, came to collaborate as the LP’s producer, Swizz Beatz, is a long-time friend of the ‘Vertigo hitmaker.<\/p>\n

Swizz previously said: \u201cBono, he\u2019s a music lover. I\u2019m a music lover. We knew each other for a while.”<\/p>\n

The follow-up to 2012\u2019s \u2018Undisputed\u2019 also features the likes of Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, Alicia Keys, Usher, and a posthumous appearance by late rapper Pop Smoke.<\/p>\n

Bono is no stranger to the hip-hop world, having previously co-written Jay-Z and Rihanna’s 2010 track ‘Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour)’ with his bandmate The Edge.<\/p>\n

The Haiti benefit single was also produced by Swizz, who previously shared how they worked on the song together over the phone.<\/p>\n

He recalled: \u201cThe idea of the song is \u2018We\u2019re not gonna leave you stranded\u2019 and that\u2019s what the chorus is.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo me and Bono started going back and forth with ideas, and he was like, \u2018You know this word stranded keeps standing out to me\u2019 and I asked him to sing it, and he put me on hold \u2019cause he\u2019s recording the ideas on a dictaphone \u2014 so he did it there and then on the phone.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
