EXCITING ALBUM RUMOURS

A source in Camp Britney is claiming a new album is just months away and a new single just weeks away.

According to the insider...

August 27th - it will be announced that Britney is to release her 7th studio album
September 7th - the first single from the album, entitled 'It's A Secret' will be announced/release to radios
November 2nd - album release date

Completely unconfirmed at the moment, but a lot of these types of rumours have turned out to be true...!

Three new 'Britney'-era songs leak

Several songs from 2001 have leaked this weekend, allegedly recorded for her third album, 'Britney'.

'Mad Love' samples the song 'Darkest Light' from French funk act Lafayette Afro Rock Band:



'When I Say So'


'Tell Me (Am I A Sinner)'

Darkchild confirms 'Telephone' authenticity

Hit producer Darkchild, who produced 'Telephone' has confirmed that the leaked demo is authentic, but denied accusations he leaked it. He stated that the demo was real but is not the mixed version, and that he will not be released the final version unless Britney wishes it to be released.

He also spoke about Britney's new album, her 7th studio album, and the work he's been doing for it:

[Britney's manager] Larry Rudolph came to my house and we had an incredible conversation about Britney’s new album. We talked about the direction of her album, he gave me some insight into the direction and he wants me to work on stuff… So with that said, “Telephone” did what it had to do and we’re very pleased with the results, but now I’m about to put 200% of my focus into writing a new smash for Britney’s new album… An international smash…

I think the fans deserve it, I think Britney deserves it and I can’t wait to get back into the studio with Britney. I’m about to go crazy on making something that’s so crazy. Since the conversation with Larry Rudolph I’ve studied some stuff from her last album and the Blackout album, and that was great stuff but I’m gonna bring something a little bit greater. I’m gonna give it my all to deliver something that’s crazy, crazy amazing for Britney.

The conversation with Larry went great, I know exactly what the direction is and I’m gonna kill it! I’m gonna create the most incredible, unbelievable track that you could ever think of to hit the planet earth, the galaxy, around the world, all of that [laughs], for Britney Spears!

Britney's demo of 'Telephone' leaks

So you all remember how Lady Gaga's hit 'Telephone' was originally offered to Britney? Well a recording claiming to be her demo recording of the song has leaked. I'm not too sure it is actually Britney though...

'Dramatic' leaks!

A full 2 years after attention-whore Heidi Montag 'released' her 'duet' with Britney (duet in this case meaning adding vocals to a demo stolen from Britney), the full HQ version of 'Dramatic' without Heidi has leaked.

The song was recorded as a demo for 'Blackout' apparently. It's quite good, but wouldn't have fitted on 'Blackout' really...

So what do we know about studio album #7 so far?

The following post was made on our sister site PopSeeker, the home of all your pop desires!

After 4 years of hogging tabloid sensationalist headlines, Britney Spears appears to have disappeared off the radar. Her last smash hit, '3' (which is still being played in clubs) came out last September to promote the release of her second greatest hits collection 'The Singles Collection'.

It has been confirmed she is back in the studio hard at work on her next studio album, her 7th, and this is what we know about it so far.

It was rumoured to be released June/July 2010 with a lead single April but more recently November has been thrown around as a more realistic release date (according to MTV News and Outsiders Media - the producers of 'Womanizer'). She is working with a whole host of hot writers and producers and is working on a sound that will be like 'Blackout on steroids' according to one source.

GimmeBritney reports that confirmed writers include:

Sean Garrett (who wrote 'Toy Soldier' off 'Blackout')
The Nervo Sisters
Chad Beatz (aka Chad Dexter) (via Twitter)
Jon Asher (via Twitter)
Jim Beanz
Michaela Shiloh

Meanwhile producers involved include:

Darkchild (via his official Twitter)- “In the studio creating a smash for Britney right now!!!”
David Guetta (via Facebook/MTV/Kyle & Jackie O Show – Australia) - although he did later backtrack slightly...
Danja (via his official Twitter)
Scott Storch (who wrote on Facebook they had completed a track called 'Second Chances')
K.Briscoe (The Outsyders) (who produced 'Womanizer')
Corte Ellis (Soul Diggaz) via MTV
Max Martin ('Baby One More Time', 'Lucky', 'Stronger' 'If U Seek Amy', '3')
Guy Sigsworth ('Everytime')
Ann Mincieli (Studio Engineer)
Lucas Secon
Diplo
Bloodshy & Avant
RedOne
Russ Castella
Cisco Adler
Jean Baptiste

Also, a couple of demos from producer Fernando Garibay have surfaced on the internet, listen to them here. Fans pretty much unanimously loved 'Blackout', myself included, but I can't help thinking that this whole electropop sound is getting a bit tired now, perhaps its a new sound she needs rather than more of the old?

What do you think? Does Britney need a new sound or more of what she does best? Comment below, tweet @popseeker or email popseeker@live.co.uk

Next album "like Blackout on steroids"

THIS I like the sound of VERY MUCH!

From X17online

"Britney Spears is ready for the world to hear her new sound, which a source says will be "more energetic" than the last album.

A person familiar with the project tells X17online exclusively:

"Right after this year's Grammy Awards, Britney met with all of the producers for her next album to explain the vibe she's looking to capture. Brit, who is co-writing many of the songs, explained that she's looking to give the new album a vibe like the song Get Naked from Blackout."

Our source says that the pop princess, who we're told is "not only a hard worker, but an incredible mother," has recruited many of the same producers from her Blackout album like Bloodshy and Avant, Nate "Danja" Hills and Corte Ellis. According to the source, this new album "will be like Blackout times 100!"

X17online has learned that the album was set to be released this summer, but the project may now be pushed back. Our source says that very soon we'll be hearing some new Britney on the radio."

Some more demos

A couple more demos have surfaced reportedly for consideration for Britney's next studio album. Performed by Shawn Desman.

The Return is quite cool, imagine Britney singing it and it'll be better. EyeSpy is shit to be honest, and is it me or does it sound astonishingly like Justin's 'Senorita'? Let's hope it doesn't make the cut. Although judging by the existence of that God awful 'Mmm Papi', we're gonna have to hope pretty hard.

Bad news on the Guetta front...

I'm pretty sure I remember French DJ David Guetta (the pop industry's newest fad) telling/bragging to some Australian radio station that he was doing some hot new stuff for Britney?

Well, apparently not. Or at least, apparently not to the extent we were led on to believe.

In an interview with MTV.co.uk, Guetta said:

I know there’s a very big rumour about Britney’s new album, but it’s only a rumour...We did speak about the idea of working together, I think it’s a great idea and she likes the idea but we don’t have the song yet so it’s only a rumour.

You know what?  I don't care.  I just want a fantastic, fresh new album; I don't want some rushed single - give the girl her time!

New Britney song to drop this month?

Rumour has it that a new Britney song is set to be sent to radios in March.

KIIS-FM hinted that the yet to be titled song may be the one produced by French DJ, David Guetta.

Update on new album

BRITannica, the Britney.com blogger has confirmed a new album is being recorded:

Rest assured that an album IS in the process of being recorded, and it's going to be sick. But a release date has not been confirmed or officially announced. As I always say, if it's not on Britney.com or BritneySpears.com, take it with a grain of salt.

Can't WAIT!

Two new Fernando Garibay demos

Two new demos by producer Fernando Garibay have appeared on the internet, and have reportedly been submitted to Jive Records for consideration for Britney's 7th studio album, set to be released in the summer of this year.

Fernando, who has previously worked with Britney on "Quicksand" and "Amnesia" has also produced Sugababes new stomper "Wear My Kiss", and tracks by Whitney Houston and Lady GaGa.

NOTE: These demos are not Britney, rather songs that she may record for her next album

Adam Leber Announcement!

Adam Leber (Britney's manager) posted on his twitter:

“Very exciting announcement that many of you have been waiting for coming soon! Might be a week, and it might be 2 so stay tuned…..”

Buzz on a new song

From the Australian GimmeBritney Forums:

I'm not gonna post this one to the main site, as I don't have enough sources to confirm this... but here goes a little tidbit for gimmeBRITNEY readers.

We're hearing that there is some sort of unveiling of the new Britney single this weekend in America. We're not sure whether this is a performance at the VMA's or what - but all the information we're getting through now is looking EXACTLY like when Womanizer was delayed... this time it's in reverse.

It looks as though a radio date was set as far back as possible to give time for something to not work out as planned. This information leads us to believe that on Monday evening in Australia, radio will be sent a brand new single from Britney - the lead track from The Singles Collection. That would make it a Sunday night in America... and what's on Sunday in America??

There is still no change to "official" radio listing of September 21 from Sony. As I mentioned earlier, this is not concrete - we're hearing these little whispers again from multiple sources. We just can't get any clarification on them.

Story developing...

EXCLUSIVE: NEW BRITNEY SINGLE: "3"

Following from this intiguing poem on Britney.com...

"Y'all keep shouting, "Gimme, gimme, gimme more,"
But little do ya know, some surprises are in store.

No matter how many gallons of Celebrity Juice you drink,
There's more around the corner, so much more than you think.

So please quit breathing heavy, I hate to hear you sigh,
I know I drive you crazy... oops! I did it again, didn't I?

As much as I lov3 contests, that isn't what this is about,
I'll tell you soon enough, 'cause I hate seeing B fans pout.

Now listen very closely, turn your radar up on high,
It's something fr3sh and new, ok? I'd never tell a lie.

So sit back and relax, be patient one more tim3,
The answer can be found within this little rhyme.

xx♥
BRITannica

I have it on good authority Britney's next and NEW single is to be entitled "3". A video will be shot in a couple of weeks time and it will be released to radios around then too.

AHHHHHH!

Remember where you heard this news first - here on BritneySpearsSpy!!

David Guetta is working with Britney

From GimmeBritney

David Guetta himself has squashed all the rumours surrounding working with Britney on new material.

He told the Kyle & Jackie O Show on Sydney’s 2Day FM that he is indeed working with Britney Spears. Jackie O asked Guetta if Britney’s people have approached him about working together, to which he replied “errr, well, ummm her A&R, yes“, before quickly changing the subject.

This adds fuel to the fire on the mysterious Facebook message that appeared late last week, that was quickly removed from his profile.



We also know that Britney is working with the like of Danja, Bloodshy & Avant and Max Martin. We don’t know if this is for a brand new album, or for the upcoming The Singles Collection, where there will be the inclusion of new songs – including a single which hits radio in only a couple of weeks.

New Britney Single in 2 WEEKS!

Britney Spears will release a brand new single to radios worldwide on Monday 21st September.

It is allegedly the lead single from her upcoming "The Singles Collection"

More when we get it!
