How the hell did these two acts meet?
Imagine Dragons and NLE Choppa are two widely recognized musical acts, though their fanbases might not overlap much. Both artists, however, are no strangers to crossing genres in their collaborations. Imagine Dragons have previously worked with artists like Lil Wayne, Logic, and Wiz Khalifa, while NLE Choppa has teamed up with various pop acts. Despite their differing styles, this partnership proves intriguing.
Imagine Dragons’ most recent release was their 2024 album LOOM. Meanwhile, NLE Choppa just dropped a brand-new album titled SLUT SZN. Their collaborative track “Dare U” marks the first release of 2025 for both artists.
Honestly, this is one of NLE Choppa’s best releases to date. The track, driven by the typical epic, earth-shattering instrumentals that Imagine Dragons are known for, showcases NLE’s relentless and assertive rap style as he speaks about his willingness to confront anyone and his focus on priorities like making money. He even hints at having nine lives like a damn cat. Meanwhile, Imagine Dragons deliver a passionate, drama-filled chorus that elevates the track to another level. All in all, I think this is a fantastic collaboration.
If NLE Choppa and Imagine Dragons crossed paths anywhere other than a liquor store, it would genuinely be shocking.
