The rapper describes it as a 'no brainer'Aitch is poised to collaborate on a song with Shona McGarty when they leave I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!.
The rapper – who has worked with the likes of Ed Sheeran and Stormzy – described the thought of a collab with Shona as a “no brainer”.

The news comes as the pair find themselves at the centre of romance rumours in the jungle.
Aitch on collaborating with Shona McGarty
Aitch spilled the tea during a live interview from the Bush Telegraph during Wednesday night’s I’m A Celebrity: Unpacked.
During a chat with hosts Joel Dommett and Kemi Rodgers, Aitch was asked which campmate he would like to collaborate with on a song. And he didn’t skip a beat when it came to answering.
He said: “No brainer, it would have to be Shona. The way she sings is different level. It would have to be Shona. She’s my answer, definitely.’
Shona, who quit playing Whitney Dean in EastEnders earlier this year, has been working hard on her music career.
In 2018, she recorded a charity Christmas single with 26 other celebrities. The track was called Rock With Rudolph for Great Ormond Street.
Three years later, Shona recorded a cover of The Beatles’ Let It Be for the mental health charity, Mind. Then, in October this year, she recorded her own single, a ballad called Unapologetically Me.
Shona told Music Talkers: “I wrote Unapologetically Me as a reminder to myself, and to anyone who has ever felt pressure to be someone they are not, that it is okay to simply be who you are.
“Having spent years in the public eye, surrounded by glitz, glam, and expectation, I often felt the need to play a character. But beneath all that, I am just human, silly, sensitive, strong, and imperfect, and that is okay.”
“She’s such a talent”
I’m A Celebrity viewers have since been treated to some impromptu performances from Shona during her jungle stint. Just this week, she performed karaoke in The Jungle Arms and hit the high notes in Whitney Houston’s I will Always Love You.
She has even showed off her yodelling capabilities!
Fans have been seriously impressed. Writing on X, one said: “I could listen to Shona’s singing voice all day long. such talent.” Another added: “Shona, what a voice. OMG.”
A third has said: “I want Shona to shake the whole camp with her voice, she can SING.” A four chimed in: “Someone get Shona a record deal… The girl can sing!”
Aitch has also collaborated with Ashanti and Anne-Marie. Will Shona really be next? We hope so!
