British singer Eliza Doolittle has found an unlikely collaborator in California rapper Schoolboy Q.

The Pack Up star is working on the follow up to her self-titled 2010 album and has been splitting her time between her native U.K. and Los Angeles, where her boyfriend, rocker Benji Madden, is based.

And it appears she's set to switch up her musical style by working with the rising hip-hop artist.

In a Twitter.com post on Thursday (20Dec12), she writes, "Was in the studio with the talented schoolboyq yesterday ! Good times !"
