No tour plans!? Super womp smfh.  Although I am beyond amp’d that they’re working w/ my Idol Yeezy!!!  But, still, no tour!?!?  Super depressed bout that :’(  …Hope they’re bluffing!!!

Via Fuse.tv:

After seemingly endless weeks of rumors and information via surrogates, Daft Punk themselves spoke to Rolling Stone about their uber-anticipated new album Random Access Memories.

Crazier than the revelation that Animal Collective’s Panda Bear is on the album is this bit of awesomeness: The duo have RECORDED MUSIC WITH KANYE WEST. Yes, years after ‘Ye sampled them for his hit “Stronger,” Daft Punk actually hit the studio with him to create what RS describes as “a combination of live and programmed drums.”

“It was very raw. He was rapping—kind of screaming primally, actually,” Thomas Bangalter teased. [Yeah… we know what that sounds like]. “Kanye doesn’t give a f-ck,” Guy Manuel de Homem-Christo said, adding, “He’s a good friend.”

But don’t expect to hear West’s screeching on Random Access Memories—the duo revealed their track will pop up on his next solo record. Whoa.

If giddiness over a proper Kanye/Daft Punk collabo is in danger of rendering you incapacitated, read this as a way of coming down from your high: The band has “no current plans” to tour behind Random Access Memories.

Gah. Bummer. Well, at least there’s only about a month left to go before it finally drops in the small cotton town of Wee Waa, Australia. 

This is a sick article.  Talk about some major breaks on this list where not having it placed with the originally intended artist worked out in their favor!

Here’s an excerpt:

“Rock Your Body”Turned Down By: Michael JacksonRecorded By: Justin Timberlake

Imagine, if you will, that Michael Jackson’s final album was comprised of Neptunes-produced bangers like “Rock Your Body” instead of the uneven fare of 1999’s “Invincible.” And imagine that Justin Timberlake’s solo debut was not blessed with tracks like this ubiquitous dance-starter. MJ passed on “Rock Your Body,” and a number of other “Justified” songs, before the tracks went to JT, sending us into an alternate pop universe that still resonates today.

“…Baby One More Time”Turned Down By: TLCRecorded By: Britney Spears

This is one denial that seemed to work out for all parties involved: Max Martin’s pop track was originally offered to TLC for their “Fan Mail” album, but the R&B group rejected the song, which eventually served as Spears’ debut single. Without “…Baby One More Time,” Spears perhaps does not arrive in such a huge way; meanwhile, TLC packed “FanMail” with hits like “No Scrubs” and “Unpretty,” and the album was eventually nominated for album of the year at the Grammy Awards.

“Gold Digger”Turned Down By: ShawnnaRecorded By: Kanye West

“Gold Digger” became one of Yeezy’s biggest hits to date, but would the Jamie Foxx-assisted “Late Registration” jam topped the Hot 100 if it had been recorded by Chicago rapstress Shawnna? After she passed on the beat, West rewrote the hook to accommodate a male perspective, and struck, er, gold.
