Britney is in the experimental stages of a new album
Sean Garrett and J.R. Rottem Join Britney in the studio
Britney Spears is back in the recording studio with J.R. Rotem and Sean Garrett, the producers confirm to PEOPLE.
"She's great," Rotem told PEOPLE at the BMI Pop Awards in Beverly Hills on Tuesday. "She's like a master at what she does. She's a lot more experienced than most people. She just has the 'it' factor that not every artist has. So it's always nice to work with her."
Although Rotem, who briefly dated Spears in 2007, would not reveal any details of the project, a Spears family source tells PEOPLE that the pop star is in the early stages of a follow-up to her last album Blackout, which was released last October.
"Britney is in the experimental stages of a new album," says the source. "She's trying to find the sound and direction she wants to go in, but nothing is set in stone just yet. She has been playing the piano a lot and just singing. She says she misses 'just singing.'"
Producer Sean Garrett was mum on specifics but says that he and Spears, 26, have "a few things in the works." At the BMI Pop Awards, Garrett told PEOPLE: "I'm just happy to see her back and recovering. She's really shaping up and getting her whole situation back together. I'm really proud and happy to see her."
I say keep promoting "Blackout" until the holiday season. There are yet some good songs that can make it big. After that, take a break for a year then start making plans for a new album. Over-exposure is not always a good thing.
Its not really overexposure considering #1, its not like "Blackout" is the most popular album and has sold millions of copies and has had a lot of exposure. #2, her first three albums were released back to back, "In The Zone" after 2 years. So I think if they really don't want to try to revive "Blackout", then move on.
