Rock and rap collaborations are nothing new, but reports of new partnerships seem to be cropping up on news sites almost every day. Recent team-ups include the Black Keys with Mos Def and Ludacris, Kid Cudi with MGMT and Ratatat, and Devendra Banhart and GZA (possibly), just to name a few. Now, The Sun reports that Jay-Z is hoping to work with Liam Gallagher from Oasis.

Jay-Z and Oasis's past interactions haven't always been friendly. Just last year, Noel Gallagher and Jay-Z began feuding when Noel questioned the Glastonbury Festival's choice of booking the famous rapper as a headliner.
Now that Noel is out of the picture (he quit Oasis in late August after yet another fallout with his brother), Jay-Z has expressed interest in collaborating with lead singer, Liam. In an interview with The Sun, Jay-Z hinted at another reason for joining forces: "I hear Snoop Dogg might be teaming up with Noel. If that's the case then I would love to work with Liam." I wonder if the epic sibling rivalry will cause a rift between the rappers, or if Jay-Z and Snoop Dog can help to bring the brothers back together.
