Former Take That star Robbie Williams is set to launch his upcoming 11th studio album and it will reportedly feature a single with "Diamonds Are Forever" hitmaker Shirley Bassey.
Grime star Big Narstie recently revealed that he has recorded a track for Williams that will also feature electro-duo Basement Jaxx and Bassey, reported Digital Spy.
"I got a call saying Robbie wanted to do a song with me and Shirley," Big Narstie said.
"Thinking it was a prank, I went to the studio - and Robbie was sitting there in his tracksuit. It's going to shock the world."
Williams, 42, has been experimenting with his new music, having snapped a picture from the recording studio with Example and Snow Patrol's Johnny McDaid.
His last studio album Swings Both Ways - a sequel of sorts to the classic Swing When You're Winning - reached number-four in the UK chart back in 2013.
Earlier this year, it was rumoured that Williams would be reuniting with Take That for a tour in 2018 after both acts recorded new albums first.
