COLLINS TO COLLABORATE WITH AKON + PHARRELL WILLIAMS
Legendary singer PHIL COLLINS is considering giving his music a modern twist by collaborating with hip-hop stars AKON and PHARRELL WILLIAMS.

The musician admits he is "flattered" to hear the duo is keen to work with him and is equally surprised they are fans of his music.
He tells Rolling Stone magazine, "I'm flattered that they've expressed the interest publicly, risking their careers in doing so.
"Anything is possible and I certainly would investigate doing that if I did think about doing something."
It's not the first time the Collins' original material has been reworked by R+B heavyweights - Brandy, Lil' Kim and Kelis sang updated versions of Collins' hits on 2001's Urban Renewal LP.
