Found this on bbc.co.uk under dance while searching for news on what Liam is
up to musically..I think i searched just 'Liam Howlett' and this came up.
Interesting info though. Dont know if it's been mentioned here yet.

"Leeroy Thornhill has hooked up with Prodigy pal Liam Howlett on his new
solo album, 'Beyond All Reasonable Doubt'. Although the ex- dancer has made
a chill-out album, he says he couldn't resist cooking up some beats with
Howlett. "

Cool!
Then there's perhaps hope for at least a few dance oriented tracks on
Leeroy's upcoming album.

Heh yea..seriously. I think the only track i didn't really mind from Leeroy
was The Smoker. I think that's the one. I dont know if all these Liam
collaborations are good though. I mean would you want people buying your
album because of someone else? (ie. people knowing liam wrote some beats on
it)

Ah, you never know. Maybe chill-out and Liam Howlett isn't really a
contradiction.
It's disregarded sometimes how adept Liam is at hip-hop, and he's
capable of more than manic headrock beats. It could surprise us, like doing
something that fits with the rest of Leeroy's record rather than sticking
out like 'oh this track has a real buzz cos that's his Prodigy mate on
there...'

Now this should be a really interesting collaboration, god knows where
this one is going to go, any of the stuff ive heard from leeroy
(longman,flightcrank) have all been very different to the prodge vibe
and who knows where liam is musically at the moment.

Lets hope it doesn’t turn out like scheming did on hells kitchen, what
a god-awful song.

I thought it was very kind of Mel B to contribute her vocals to it ;-)

Hadrian's Wall was pretty raw - I don't know about any of the hip hop tracks
on the album, though.
