If you’re wondering what other kind of music is usually playing in Pattinson’s house, the actor shared that he has one album currently on repeat: There’s No Place Like America Today by Curtis Mayfield. Music industry is pretty rough.” No doubt he’s received some advice from his significant other, musician FKA Twigs. “I just don’t really know what to do with it. Apparently, that wasn’t a one-off: “I make music quite a lot still,” Pattinson reveals. There is a lot to chew in that story, so much so that the fact that Pattinson makes music might almost escape those who aren’t intimately familiar with the actor. Thus Pattinson is included in a small but varied group of Death Grips collaborators that also includes Björk and Les Claypool. The song he’s referring to is “Birds”, which appeared on the bands 2014 album Government Plates. When he played it to me it was maybe one of the most proud moments in my life.”

the song came about when Zach recorded that bit of guitar on his phone then made it into birds. but through the process became really good friends. we initially were gonna do a video together, and then almost started doing a movie. I started talking to them and they were awesome. Then they randomly were sitting next to me in a restaurant a year later eating salads which kind of surprised me. My speakers all blew up from the song too. “I played thru the walls once in my house on new years eve and people went from 0 to insane so quickly I knew they were something really special. “Death Grips were one of my favourite bands for years,” he says. Never mind that he’s more of a rosé guy, as he also revealed that’s his go-to drink at a bar.Īs for how he ended up in the photo with Death Grips, Pattinson explains that he met them too through his own fandom. “The photo of us and Beyoncé came from when we went to her concert drank so much red wine that we all had black teeth and I was trying to find a place back stage to get all the stuff off my teeth and bumped into Beyoncé so we took a picture,” Pattinson explains.

It involves red wine teeth stains for starters.

And, it turns out, the origin story is just as strange as the actual photo. Specifically, he provided a much-needed backstory to one of 2013’s most surprising photos: a group shot of himself standing alongside Beyoncé and beloved art-punk band Death Grips. But in a recent AMA with Reddit, Pattinson let his guard down and gave fans a rare glimpse into his world. The intensely private Harry Potter alumni often keeps his fans guessing as to his inner thoughts and home life. Despite being one of the most recognizable actors of his generation, Robert Pattinson is a man of mystery.
