Elton John Wants to Go Hip-Hop

The star recently revealed his hopes in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine.  The 59 year-old singer explained, "I want to bring my songs and melodies to hip-hop beats.  It may be a disaster, it could be fantastic, but you don’t know until you try."

Elton John also thinks it would be a good idea to collaborate with some other stars in the music world.  He added, "I want to work with Pharrell, Timbaland, Snoop, Kanye, Eminem and just see what happens."

Before starting work on his new project, Elton John will be releasing the CD The Captain and the Kid next month.
