Travis Barker knows how to party like a rock star. After all, he’s had on the job training as the drummer for Blink 182. But truthfully, the So Cal native’s a hardcore hip-hop head. In fact, he’s fiddled his sticks for P.Diddy, Soulja Boy and The Game. More recently, he was commissioned to remix Eminem’s “3 A.M.”.

According to Bun B, his UGK partner Pimp C was first approached to be on Hov’s song with Too $hort before they seized the opportunity later on “Big Pimpin’.” I didn’t know that. And I call myself a Jay-Z authority. SMH.
