Collaboration gets nixed

The Killers turned down a collaboration with Ghostface Killah.

The former Wu Tang Clan member said that he wanted to combine his vocals with their music, but they pulled out.

He said: “I wanted to do a song with them. I’m Ghostface Killah and they’re the The Killers. We were going to do a mash-up with my vocals over their music, and it was going to be The Killers meet the Killah. But they did n’t want to do it. I was disappointed.”

The rapper told Spin that he would like to get former Arctic Monkeys bassist Andy Nicholson to play with him.

He said: “Who plays bass on this record? I’ve gotta get him on my next record!”
