Drake Set To Work With Florence And The Machine And The xxDrake has revealed that he has been in the studio working on tracks with Florence And The Machine and Jamie from The xx.

The rapper, who currently features on Rihanna's number one track 'What's My Name', says he enjoys working with UK acts.

"Me and Flo met the night after the VMAs, she came to the studio and we just clicked right away. Me and Florence can get in the studio and do something incredible and we will," Drake told BBC Newsbeat.

On working with The xx's Jamie he said: "The praises I'll sing most is definitely The xx and Jamie, and we're working on Take Care [Drake's second album] together. Jamie is probably one of the most exciting producers I've ever heard,"

Florence & The Machine joined Drake on stage as the rapper played the second of three gigs in London on Saturday (January 8).
