Her last name may be a fine punchline for rhymes about selling rock, but, man, I dunno about this one. According to the Re-Up Gang blog (via Blender's blog), Virginia rhymers Clipse and British blues borrower Joss Stone are working together.

Entertainment Weekly's Hollywood Insider blog reports that Clipse will appear on Ms. Stone's next album, while Stone will grace Clipse and crew's Re-Up Gang LP, tentatively due in June on Columbia. Apparently, Clipse and Stone already have a song together in the can called "Just Walk on By", which was recorded for, um, Randy Jackson's Music Club, Volume 1. However, the final version of the song cuts out the Clipse and leaves only the Joss. (For some reason, Three 6 Mafia are listed as being in the track, though. Oh Randy Jackson, why must you confuse us so?)

In other Clipse news, they'll rock the Primavera Sound festival in May, their Play Cloths fashion line is in the works, and the Re-Up Gang recently issued that We Got It For Cheap, Vol. 3 mixtape fire. Nary a Stone required!
