“I’m the guy with no shirt who rocks; Andrew and Gold Tooth get that, and we made a record together the old-fashioned way,” Iggy said in a recent statement announcing the partnership with Gold Tooth and Atlantic.
“The players are guys I’ve known since they were kids and the music will beat the shit out of you. Have a great day.”

In a statement announcing the new label deal, Watt said: “Iggy Pop is a fucking icon. A true original. The guy invented the stage dive..
“I still can’t believe he let me make a record with him. I am honoured. It doesn’t get cooler. This album was created to be played as loud as your stereo will go… turn it up and hold on…”
Elsewhere, Iggy Pop is set to release a 10th anniversary edition of his 2012 album ‘Aprés’ as part of Record Store Day’s Black Friday this month (November 25).
Earlier this year, the singer released an EP with Belgian composer and multi-instrumentalist Catherine Graindorge. ‘The Dictator’ came to fruition after Graindorge sent off a speculative email to the rock legend.
