Phil Collins may team-up with Akon, Pharrell Williams

Washington, May 23 : Legendary singer Phil Collins is pondering joining hands with hip-hop stars Akon and Pharrell Williams so as to give his music a modern twist.

He revealed that he was a bit surprised as well as flattered when he first heard that both Akon and Williams were fans of his music, and wanted to work with him.

"I'm flattered that they've expressed the interest publicly, risking their careers in doing so," Contactmusic quoted him as telling Rolling Stone magazine.

"Anything is possible and I certainly would investigate doing that if I did think about doing something," he added.

This is not the first time that R and B stars have evinced interest in Collins' music, for Brandy, L'il Kim and Kelis sang updated versions of Collin's hits on 2001's Urban Renewal LP.
