Amanda Bynes working with Waka Flocka Flame

Amanda Bynes is producing a rap album with hip-hop star Waka Flocka Flame.

The troubled actress recently announced she is set to embark on a new career as a musician, and now it has emerged her rapper friend Waka Flocka Flame is producing her album, titled Shots.

Bynes is reportedly set to sign a deal with the star's Brick Squad Monopoly record label, and Waka Flocka Flame is adamant his pal is happy, healthy and ready to launch herself in the music world.

He tells TMZ.com, "It's (the album is) going to be crazy hot... She has it all together to me. She is cool as hell and ready for the rap world. I think she is going to kill the game."

Previous reports suggested former Fugees star Wyclef Jean had agreed to work with Bynes on her album, but the story was quickly shot down by his representatives.
