Mega producer Mark Ronson has slammed fellow Brit Joss Stone as “really annoying” after the singer wrote a 7,000 word thankyou list in the sleevenotes for her new album.

Ronson - who has worked with Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen - was left stunned by Stone’s gushing credit list.

“Those Joss Stone sleevenotes, man. I’ve been around white singers who’ve been told they’re soulful since a young age and they feel they have carte blanche to be ‘I’m a down groovy soul chick’ - this really annoying attitude that permeates everything,” he says. “Part of me thinks, ‘Well, she’s 19, I did so many stupid things when I was 19,’ but she’s being rammed down my throat, so I’m allowed to have an opinion.”
