British band Coldplay and hip-hop artist Travis Scott, the two seemingly different artists, share a surprising connection and admiration for each other's music.

AceShowbiz - During a Coldplay concert in Sydney, Australia, frontman Chris Martin was taken aback when a fan requested Travis Scott (II)'s hit "FE!N". Despite being under pressure, Martin eventually remembered his favorite Scott song, "Goosebumps," from 2016's "Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight." The band seamlessly incorporated the song into their own classic, "God Put a Smile Upon Your Face."

Scott responded favorably on social media, calling the cover "This got it" with a goat emoji, indicating his high regard for Coldplay's musicianship. The Texas rapper has long been a fan of the British band, praising their "ill" melodies in a 2012 interview.

Martin, too, has delved into the hip-hop world with collaborations with Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Big Sean. Despite Coldplay's planned retirement after two more "proper albums," he remains dedicated to maintaining the band's high quality standards.

On Coldplay's Music of the Spheres world tour, the band has included the unexpected Scott cover. The raucous rendition, performed with an acoustic guitar and a rocking solo, gained traction after Scott praised it. "Goosebumps" holds a special place in Scott's discography, as he previously set a world record by performing it 15 times in a row.

The mutual respect between Coldplay and Scott extends beyond their music. Scott has shouted out Coldplay in lyrics, while fans have created inventive mash-ups combining the two artists' sounds. The admiration and collaboration between these seemingly disparate talents underscore the ever-evolving and diverse nature of contemporary music.
