The band managed to grab West for a track when they found out he lived next to the band’s bass player Pete Wentz. Wentz tells MTV.com, “I ran into Kanye at some fashion show in California. He was like, ‘We should hang out some time!’ “It turns out he’s one of my neighbors in California. So he called me and (frontman) Patrick up one day and invited us over to his place. We went, and he played us new songs and we played him some of ours. And he agreed to do a remix for us.”

Them dudes are sign to DefJam, seem Jay-Z is trying to make sure there album moves units.
nah Jay-Z doesn't need to be on the album to make it sell well. Fall Out Boy are already famous. I'm definitely pickin that album up though.
Pete Wentz is a fruit cake though. But dude can write some songs.
Jay z need to just go sit down somewhere...hahaha... and kanye don't get me started ... good producer for sho but as far as rapper .. he makes female albums...no one i know bump his shit but beezys..
Kanye West is a homo rapper.He's a hypocrite. I don't want anything to do wit that gay ass nigga.
not excited 'bout this collabo
I am a lil skeptical bout Kanye doin' a remix with an EMO band. That is an appetite for destruction, period. As far as Jay Z concern, dude, stick with Linkin Park. At least they're a lil' edgier than these panzies. This is gonna be bad!
ur a fuckin crack head u ignit bitch, fall out boy ain't emo
Damn I dis collabo itz money been made lol
get that money H.O! I right behind you..Give me couple years I SWEAR I NEVER SIN AGAIN
wtf? why do they always collabo with some punk rock bands and shit? fuck kanye and Hova
Nigga sound real stupid on here."why do they always collabo with some punk rock bands and shit".Little kids on defsounds always say the darnest things.
Jay-Z has done nearly a hundred collabos, this and the chris martin songs off Kingdom Come would make two.The linkin Park/Jay-Z albums was a mashup.
But if he did, so what.Getting money is getting money in the music industry, except to cornball idiots.
I dont mind Jay doing a collaboration with a "rock" band. Dude tore it up with Linkin Park on the "Collision Course". That was a crazy record. I would rather hear him and Linkin Park do another collaboration, but with brand new material. I will be honest, I will give a shot and hear the track thou, even though I do not like Fall Out Boy. However, I do not approve of the fact that Kanye would do a remix for them though. I dug the remix that he did with Maroon 5. But, Maroon 5 was more of a R&B sound, similar to Hall & Oates. It might be a disaster. But, good luck to him.
this is different tho, this is some emo band.. and i feel that milehigh, he tryin to make chi seem like a backpack skateboard place, fuck that.. im from the bay and i'd be damned if they tryin to make us seem like a bunch of back pack people, they are too they wearin fuckin vans skate shoes and other bullshit.
wow...what's the big deal if hov and kanye are on a track with this band?? i read an article that they begged hov to be on a track. Lets open up hip hop is more than just street. run dmc ll cool j and more have done rock collabs.
Jay-Z and Kanye on some emo shit?!?!?!? FUCK THAT!!!! EMO IS GAY!!!!!!!! KANYE IS TRIPPIN!!!!!! HE HAS LOST HIS MIND!!!
sounds kinda dumb, but Kanye always does nice things so we'll see.
