Billie Joe Armstrong would be thrilled to collaborate with Olivia Rodrigo, a "talented" person, at some point.
Although he acknowledged he doesn't specifically buy or stream any of the 20-year-old singer-songwriter's work, the vocalist of Green Day is eager to collaborate with her.
Regarding the comparison between theatrical performers such as Olivia and Green Day's 2004 release "American Idiot," Billie stated to Vulture, "I hear it, but I don't go out and buy any of those records or stream it."
"It does pass me by. When I hear it, I think it sounds good. "I think it would be fun to work with her sometime. She's talented."
In addition, Billie maintained that he is a punk rock "encyclopaedia".
He added: "Sometimes you can see how someone is interested in what punk rock is and maybe they don't quite have some of the influences or knowledge that I have on the history of punk rock. "I'm kind of an encyclopaedia. To do something with someone like Olivia Rodrigo would be fun."
Billie recently discussed how, while in London for the recording of Green Day's latest album, he fully immersed himself in British culture. The rockers recorded the majority of the tunes for their upcoming album, "Saviors," at RAK Studios in the English capital.
Billie took use of his time in the city by going to see football games, such as Arsenal, Fulham, and Millwall, to gain insight into the weekend routines of the British people.
He told the Guardian newspaper: "I went to a lot of football games: Arsenal, Leyton Orient, Fulham. I went to The Den to see Millwall. That was amazing. "Man, if you really want to experience British culture that's what you should do. "Football is like a ... religion. It's like being at a big rock concert. You practically need earplugs! I've always wanted to check out all the different divisions, not just the world-class teams like Arsenal and Man City. "I wanted to go to some of the lower-league games - especially Millwall, which has that gritty, [angry], underdog, 'No one likes us and we don't care' vibe. It reminds me of being an Oakland Raiders fan."
