Yep. Sir Elton John is going hip-hop. We read it in the Sundaymirror.co.uk, which was quoting Rolling Stone. It seems the 59-year-old balladeer has decided to put a contemporary spin on his old classics, and wants to work with the likes of Eminem and Snoop Dog.

"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,” John told Rolling Stone. "I want to work with Pharrell, Timbaland, Snoop, Kanye, Eminem and just see what happens."

Sir Elton seems committed to the quest, telling the magazeine that although it's still in the idea stage, : "I want it to sound a bit like ‘No Diggity,’ by Blackstreet."

It seems even a little before the idea stage. He went on to say:

''I want to bring my songs and melodies to hip-hop beats. I love these beats, but I have no idea how to get them." But ... you're Elton John! Call Eminem!
