"He's a super chill fella," Pete Wentz says of rapper 50 Cent when talking hip-hop with Gigwise backstage at Reading Festival 2016. 

So how did we get to this topic of conversation? Late last year Fall Out Boy released a remix version of their latest studio album, American Beauty/American Psycho. Titled Make America Psycho Again, each song featured a different rapper and was individually remixed by the guest artist and their team. 

On picking who they wanted for the project, Pete said: "For the most part, we tried to pick people that we thought were cool but maybe our fanbase wouldn't have known yet, like who were bubbling underground, at least in pop culture."

Briefly touching upon Frank Ocean's new album, Blond, as well as who else he's listening to hip-hop-wise at the moment, check out Gigwise's interview with Fall Out Boy's much loved bassist below.
