Phil Collins: 'I'm Flattered Pharrell Williams Would Risk His Career To Work With Me'

Phil Collins says he was “flattered” when he heard that US rapper Akon and producer Pharrell Williams wanted to work with him.

The former Genesis drummer said he would consider doing something with the pair, despite admitting that he was surprised they are fans.

“I'm flattered that they've expressed the interest publicly, risking their careers in doing so,” Collins told Rolling Stone.

“Anything is possible and I certainly would investigate doing that if I did think about doing something.”

Last month, Collins said he had not plans to record another solo album in a bizarre interview with The Times newspaper.
