music news Britney to collab with Charli for upcoming album

[shyboi]

 

Pop legend Britney Spears is celebrating her return to the music scene with her first record in eight years - and 25 years since the release of her debut album.

 

The 42-year-old Toxic hitmaker has reportedly been collaborating with singer-songwriter Charli XCX in a bid to dominate the charts once again. The new album is set to be released next year and will feature a new track that has been written by the 31-year-old British singer.

Reports suggest Charli XCX spent time in a studio earlier this year to write one of Britney's new songs, after gaining support from the iconic pop star. "Charli has a great track record when it comes to writing clever pop songs," a source told The Sun.

 

"She went into the studio earlier in the year to make some songs using Britney’s guidance of what she is after. She came up with a really strong track that is expected to make it on to the album, which Britney’s team hope will be out in 2024.

It comes shortly after Britney Spears featured in a new song titled Mind Your Bussiness with fellow superstar will.i.am and Elton John’s song Hold Me Closer last year.

 

Britney and Will last collaborated back in 2012 with their smash single Scream & Shout which was noticeable for a distinct British accent that Britney sang with. The dance-pop track sold more than 3 million copies in the USA alone and hit number 1 in almost 30 charts around the world - including the UK.

 

The singer stepped back from music as she fought to be released from a controversial 13-year conservatorship, which came to an end in November 2021.

Is Britney going to sing on this one?

[Xtripped]

She's Britney Spears, she can afford the best producers and songwriters, I mean why Charlie XCX?

She’s been recording since 2021. This isn’t a surprise at all

really? do we have more details? if she's been recording since 2021 the sound is probably already dated

[Lion]

if it’s true I’m so hyped! I love the idea of a Britney song written by Charli 😍

[schnetzka]

She said in her book that music is not a priority for her right now so I don't know if I believe this.

Oh wow, Charli is about to finally snag a BB hit this decade 

[Proseductice]

Idk if I believe this even though I really want to. Has the source ever been correct about Britney news in the past?

[ZacXCX]

In theory, this sounds amazing. That being said, if Britney's heart isn't fully into it, I'm afraid of it turning into a BJ 2.0 panned mess. Part of me hopes they go slightly weird/hyperpop and create a How I Roll/If I'm Dancing moment. Let Britney have fun.

[deardesperado]

Here for it if it’s true 

[Plastic]

OH MY GOD

[Reginald]

YES PLEASE

We want fresh, modern sounds not the Will.I.AmPrint

But does she want to have fun tho? Maybe Britney wants her Joanne era, it's about time

“Huge British pop star” is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

a Charli penned Britney track,, lives will be changed

This was originally reported by The Sun, who were also the first ones to spill about Hold Me Closer and Manjobi.

even if not actively, i think britney has been working on an album for a few years now knowing padam padam was written for her

Don't manifest this.

 

Joking aside, I'd be here for a personal album too (A real one this time). We truly have no idea what her direction is (Or if she has any direction at all). I was at peace with the idea of her just retiring, so any release is a good surprise for me, if it ever happens.
