Franz Ferdinand have spoken about playing live with controversial rapper T.I recently.

The Glaswegians teamed up with the gun-lover at a Diesel concert which was all about unusual collaborations. Bassist Bob Hardy told a website: "It was fun actually."

The band played his hit Live Your Life but sadly the favour wasnt returned. Drummer Paul Thomson said: "He was going to rap over 16 bars of Ulysses as well but he had a federal curfew and had to go home... He had to be tucked up in bed by 2am."

T.I was caught with an arsenal of weapons last year and will start a prison term in the near future. Franz Ferdinand release their new album Tonight this Monday (Jan 26).
