Slash's solo album has some unlikely collaborations

Some Slash news.... I think everyone knows by now that a GNR reunion isn't right around the corner (although I still think I will see it in the next 10 years), and Velvet Revolver seems to have thrown in the towel as well.  It's time for Slash to move on, and he has.  On November 11th he has a 2 track cd single being released where everyone is famous in Japan.  The first track 'Sahara' is a new song that features Koshi Inaba from Japan's very own B'Z on vocals.  The second track is a remake of 'Paradise City' with Fergie Ferg from the Black Eyed Peas doin' guest vocals.  I am not sure how necessary that is, but I guess Slash likes working with the pop princesses since he is also going to be featured on the song 'Rockstar 101' (cheesiest name ever) off of Rihanna's new album Rated R(she must be a QOTSA fan?)

Slash has a solo album album coming out soon simply titled Slash.  It seems like it might be similar to the Tony Iommi solo album in that it features a different singer on each song, and all the songs are pretty radically different from one other.  So far its been released that NIN's Josh Freese is on drums and some of the vocalists include Ozzy , M. Shadows, Eric Valentine, and Chris Cornell.  Interesting.... it will do do well in Japan.
