That didn't take long! Nile Rodgers invites Adam Lambert to sing on Diana Ross and Chic song
Nile Rodgers has reached out to Adam Lambert in an effort to get him to sing on a new song. The legendary guitarist, who has previously worked with Lambert on the singer's solo material and Avicii's 'Lay Me Down', spoke to the US star on Twitter today (November 19). Rodgers invited the vocal powerhouse to lend his singing talent to a Diana Ross and Chic song he is working on. The axeman said: "Hey Adam! How the hell are you? Please sing on this Diana Ross w CHIC track! Send me your schedule. I'll call Martin. Love. "BTW - The song is sick! You'd love it and nail it in less than an hour knowing you… okay 2 hours but it's great." Rodgers later added: "AND come to Elton's Oscar Party and sing with CHIC. I'll send you an email if you jumped off the tweet pipe." Follow us: @pressparty on Twitter / Pressparty on Facebook.

Adam Lambert joining Nile Rodgers & Diana Ross after Queen stint?Adam Lambert really is a man in demand and as well as fitting in work on his new album, his 2015 tour with Queen and all his charity work, it looks like he could soon have yet another project in the pipeline. The American Idol star has received a message from old pal Nile Rodgers, who would dearly love him to collaborate on the remake of an old Diana Ross and Chic song. Rather than picking up the phone and giving his friend a call however, his old Lay Me Down collaborator tweeted Lambert instead, letting everyone know how desperate he is to hook up with the vocal powerhouse once more. Niles tweeted yesterday, asking: “Hey Adam! How the hell are you? Please sing on this Diana Ross w CHIC track! Send me your schedule. I’ll call Martin. Love. “BTW – The song is sick! You’d love it and nail it in less than an hour knowing you… okay 2 hours but it’s great.” Rodgers later added: “AND come to Elton’s Oscar Party and sing with CHIC. I’ll send you an email if you jumped off the tweet pipe.” Adam hasn’t yet responded to Nile, probably because he is too busy with his American Horror Story TV marathon! The star has praised the show many, many times and four hours ago he took to his official Twitter page to gush: “These actors are so fucking sickening on @ahsfx! BRAVO. I’m obsessed.” Brian May revealed yesterday that he is keen to keep working with Adam on Queen, as and when schedules allow, for the long term. The supergroup are set to take their massive concerts to the UK and Europe in 2015, allowing Lambert to first complete work on his new record.

Thanks for the article. Now that read was very, very enlightening.... Well worth the reading time. Congrats on her picking up on your Twitter. Could you please clarify the Twitter conversation a bit more... Not sure I get it! Thanks ( Edit add...whoops... I get it now that I went back and opened up the conversations under each twit. I think I get it?...haha) The different inventions and measures to get music to our ears, to make it popular, force it to be popular, find and develop artists...."all very interesting"! I thought the concept of people choosing songs with melodies, that sound familiar to other sounds/ melodies they have liked, makes total sense, and is true. I think of Avicii and the hits off his albums with the blended electronics and down home "country ish" leanings. Interesting to read about the blending of hip hop/ rap and pop...and why artists have moved in that direction. Being an innovator or ahead of the curve may have it's price.

Maybe it's just me, but it seems like Nile's tweets to Adam would better be DMs ... Or maybe Nile meant to DM Adam and just messed up. I'm Just not sure how good the publicity is when eventually it will get around to the fact that there's no apparent response from Adam. I guess I'd rather be surprised by a collaboration showing up rather than be teased about one that doesn't happen. (Sorry to be a grouch... We're back to the typical PNW gray gloomy weather today!)

It's very likely that Adam will respond via DM and we won't know about it. Nile seems endearingly not tuned in that way. I can't imagine Adam would simply not respond to Nile. JMHO

JMHO I'm not concerned the Adam won't respond to Nile, but that with Nile making his tweets public and then then Adam of course replying privately, it could pear to some people that Adam didn't respond. Anyway, no biggie, it is what it is! I hope the collab will happen!
