"I have yet to rehearse [with anyone]. I got a call, like, on Tuesday. Everyone found out a day after I did. So, I don't know exactly what I'm doing yet," Barker told MTV News on Friday (January 29) in his Los Angeles studio. "I'm just a part of it. I know I'm playing drums. I know it's a performance with Eminem, Drake, myself and Lil Wayne. I think it might be 'Forever.' "
That seems likely. After all, both Em and Wayne contributed verses to Drake's "Forever," and Barker contributed a blazing remix of the song earlier this year. But the Blink drummer's night won't just stop there. He's apparently also set to perform with Wayne on a version of "Drop the World," from Weezy's upcoming Rebirth album (that track also features Em), which makes it sound very much like there's a medley on tap.
"Yeah, I think we're doing a medley, a couple of songs," Barker laughed. "I think 'Drop the World' is in. Maybe."
And while a combo of Barker, Drake, Eminem and Wayne would certainly rival the "Swagga Like Us" performance at last year's Grammys (which featured Jay-Z, Kanye West, T.I., Weezy and M.I.A. sharing the stage), there's still one big question: Will West — who has been lying low since his infamous outburst at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards — show up on Sunday to perform his verse on "Forever"? Not surprisingly, Barker isn't exactly sure.
