The Streets chasing Snoop and Stefani

The Streets star Mike Skinner has approached Snoop Dogg and Gwen Stefani to appear on his upcoming third album.

The British rapper is adamant that he will get the US stars to appear on his fourth disc if they are too busy to make it on The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living - because he wants to penetrate the American market.

He says: "I've spoken to Snoop and Gwen Stefani - it could be tough this time, but I'll get 'em on the next album if not this one."
