"I want to bring my songs and melodies to hip hop beats - a bit like `No Diggity` by Blackstreet,`" John said in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine.

John told the American music magazine he would like to work with producer Dr. Dre and a variety of artists, although he had yet to contact them.
"I want to work with Pharrell (Williams), Timbaland, Snoop (Dogg), Kanye (West), Eminem and just see what happens. It may be a disaster, it could be fantastic, but you don`t know until you try," he said.
