Jason Aldean Jokes About Kane Brown Pushing for a Collab: ‘He Likes to Put Me on Blast’

Jason Aldean and Kane Brown have been friends for years, and their families are close as well. The pair have even surprised fans by popping up at each other’s shows, most recently when Brown joined Aldean on stage at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville to perform “Dirt Road Anthem.” 

Despite their longtime friendship and shared appreciation for each other as artists, an official duet between the two country stars hasn’t happened…yet.

During an interview with Audacy’s Katie Neal, Aldean opened up about the potential collaboration. 

“I know where this is going already,” Aldean began with a laugh. “Kane’s reached out to me a couple times about doing something, and I’ve told him before that I’d love to do something with him. To me, those things are always, it’s all about the song. And obviously, Kane’s music and my music is really, really different, you know what I mean?” 

Aldean made it clear that while a collaboration isn’t on the immediate horizon, it’s something he’d be excited to do when the right song comes along.

“So when he sends a song to me, sometimes it’s just not really what I would normally do. And so I’ve always kind of told him it’s like, it’s about finding the right song, but I would love to do something with him. And I think it’ll happen at some point when the right thing comes along. And we just kind of haven’t found that yet.” 

Of his longtime friend, Aldean joked, “Kane likes to put me on blast.”

Throughout his career, Jason Aldean has teamed up with artists like Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, and John Morgan, while Kane Brown has collaborated with Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton, and Lauren Alaina.

Fans hoping for a duet between the two country stars may be in luck, as both are working on new music. In May, Aldean revealed he’d been in the studio and is set to release his new single, “How Far Does a Goodbye Go,” this Friday. Meanwhile, Brown hinted that the success of his hit “2 Pair” could lead to an EP or a “quick nine-song album.”
