Chris Martin has revealed that Coldplay are already working on their next album, and are hoping for Rihanna to make a guest appearance on it.
The band only released their sixth album, Ghost Stories, a few months ago, but it seems they're already back in the studio working on a follow-up.
Speaking to New York radio station Fresh 102.7, Martin was asked whether he was already onto the next Coldplay project. ""Yeah we are," he said. "We knew we wanted to make this thing called Ghost Stories, and then make something else. Worst answer of all time... but we have an idea, then we're gonna go on tour after that."

The singer also revealed that he has been working with Rihanna: "I love being in the studio with Rihanna. It wasn't necessarily with... I was working for her. I don't think she even asked, I just said, 'Please can I try something?'"
The station's presenter then asked if the singer will appear on the band's own album, to which Martin said: "I hope so, yeah. I have a really nice song which... maybe, I hope so."
Rihanna and Coldplay previously collaborated on 'Princess of China', a song which featured on Coldplay's fifth studio album Mylo Xyloto.
