Labrinth 'In Talks' To Work On Tulisa's Solo Album

EXCLUSIVE | The Earthquake star is sure something will happen soon...

Super-producer Labrinth has exclusively confirmed to MTV.co.uk that he has been talking to X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos about working on her solo album.

After previously confessing that he would love to hook-up with the N-Dubz singer on a track, the Earthquake hitmaker - who has previously worked with Tulisa on Children In Need tune Teardrop - revealed he's sure the collaboration will happen in the near future.

When asked about hitting the studio with Tulisa, Lab told us: "We talked about working together but we haven’t done it yet. We just threw a few things together.

"I was working with a writer called Ali Tennat - I think he’s worked with the likes of Jessie J - and we threw down a few ideas but it’s not really been confirmed yet."

He added: "Me and Tulisa will probably talk soon. I’ve known Tulisa for ages and I’m sure something will happen."

Earlier this week, Contostavlos revealed that her debut solo single is ready to be released, telling Capital FM: "I'm going to be shooting a video soon. Haven't got a set date but I'd say within the next two months definitely.

"It's very me but maybe not what people would expect genre-wise. It's one of those tracks that you don't get bored of."

The 23-year old went on to explain that recording her debut solo LP was going "really good" and she plans to put the finishing touches to the record in LA "over the next few months."

With Labrinth on board, we're sure The Female Boss has got a huge hit on her hands…
