Rex Features

American singer Santogold has revealed that she is working on a secret project with Jay-Z.

The 31-year-old, who released her debut solo album earlier this year, is also collaborating with the Beastie Boys, Roots Manuva and David Byrne.

"I may do something with Jay-Z, it's kind of secret," she told NME. "It's not for anything, it's just 'cos we want to."

Speaking about her other projects, the singer said: "I'm going to do some recording on a project David Byrne's doing and I'm working on a track with the Beastie Boys for their record.

"It's not like 'insert girl on chorus' or anything, we'll figure it out as we go along."
