Jan 01, 2011
Blink-182's drummer Travis Barker revealed new information about his debut solo album. Titled Give The Drummer Some, it is set to hit the stores on February 22. "My official first single drops January 2011", wrote Barker on his Twitter account.

Upcoming album was produced by The Neptunes and DJ Khaled.

Earlier Travis Barker revealed that Give The Drummer Some was recorded with the help of the huge list of rappers. Eminem, Snoop Dogg and Lil Wayne are among those who worked with Barker on his album.

Linkin Park's frontman Chester Bennington, Slipknot's Corey Taylor, Drake, T.I., The Game, Pharrell Williams, RZA and a number of other rappers were also named as Travis Barker's collaborators.

Barker himself co-produced the album and also played drums on it.

"I'm not singing or being an MC or anything. Over the last five years, when Blink-182 wasn't around, I played a lot by myself or did a whole bunch of stuff with just me. Whether I was playing with T.I. or doing whatever, it just opened another world for me", said Barker.
