NEW YORK — Keith Richards has disclosed that The Rolling Stones are working on a new album after a picture showed leading British rapper Skepta in the studio with the rock legends. Richards, asked in a weekend YouTube forum for fans if the Stones planned another album, said: "Yeah, in fact we are, very, very shortly." The founder of Midnight Studios in London earlier this month posted on Instagram a picture of Skepta with Stones frontman Mick Jagger, raising speculation of a collaboration. Richards, however, said that the next album could also adapt blues classics as he described the band’s joy in recording Blue and Lonesome. He said recording new music offered the Stones "a boost to their energy" amid "fears of viability in this day and age."
