In addition to footballer, political commentator and philosphy student, Barton can now add music reviewer to his CV.
The QPR midfielder, who is a big fan of The Smiths, will be reviewing singles for Q Radio this Sunday.
Barton will also be talking to Q about his music tastes, in addition to discussing the changing public perception of the star.
