Muse Plan To Work With The Streets' Mike Skinner

Muse frontman Matt Bellamy has expressed a desire to collaborate with The Streets’ Mike Skinner.

Speaking to BBC 6 Music, Bellamy said that they had yet to ask Skinner but hoped it would lead to “England’s answer to Rage Against The Machine.”

“Like London rap rock – just like a little one off – it might be a laugh,” he said.

As previously reported, Muse made a special appearance at the Royal Albert Hall in London last weekend on behalf of the Teenage Cancer Trust.

The band’s one-off show preceded their scheduled appearance at the V Festival this August - which Bellamy revealed would be a chance for them to play new material.

“Yeah I think we would hope to play something new there – one or two things maybe," he explained.

“Whether that would be a single or not I don’t know but certainly we would like to try a couple of new tracks for the first time.”
