Avicii doesn't want to collaborate with Rihanna or Chris Brown

Avicii has admitted that working with acts like Rihanna or Chris Brown doesn't interest him.

The Swedish DJ and producer is currently sitting at the top of the UK singles chart with his track 'Wake Me Up'.

However, he told the Daily Star that working with mainstream names like Rihanna didn't come into his mind when creating his forthcoming debut album 'True'.

Instead, the music maestro tapped up the likes of Aloe Blacc, Nile Rodgers and Incubus for the record. Avicii said:

"I tend not to go for your Rihannas and Chris Browns. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's more fun when there's no boundaries. I try to go after the people who are a bit far-fetched and out of the box, who could add something new.

"I've got more access to really talented people nowadays, like Nile Rodgers and Aloe, especially on my next record."
