IMAGINE IF SHE HAS A NIKKI MINAJ DUET. :wub:

 

Everyone else seems to... :lol:

Why does Belguim have two charts? :lol:

 

Belgium has two Charts; Flander is for the Dutch speaking area and Wallonia is for the French speaking area, so they are indeed Charts :cheer:

 

;)

 

#4 Australia +6

Does anyone else kind of want Sweet Potato to be true? :lol:
Icon is self indulgent

 

Exactly. People may think shes delusional

 

No, not at all. I think it should be name 'ICON', personally.

 

The great thing about Britney is that she does not know she's an icon; TCA 2009 for instance demonstrates this :yahoo:

I was half-joking. I mean if Vanessa Carlson can call her new album 'Icon', why can't Brit?

Billboard: "Britney Spears: 2011 Album Preview"

 

Lady Gaga, take note. With "Hold It Against Me" debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 this issue-and every conceivable rumor regarding her next album being subjected to WikiLeaks levels of scrutiny-Britney Spears has made it clear that she won't be relieved of her pop princess title that easily.

 

After a week of release, "Hold It Against Me" debuted on Billboard's Mainstream Top 40 Songs chart at No. 16 with 4,071 plays, the highest detections total by a debuting title in the chart's 18-year history. Perhaps even more impressive was the hype that preceded its release, which included a leaked demo and the song's co-producer, pop hitmaker Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald, stoking the speculative flames on Twitter ("The first word of the Britney song is 'hey'... the 24th word is 'song,' " he wrote.)

 

For Spears' (officially) still-untitled seventh studio album, Gottwald and Max Martin have signed on as co-executive producers (as they did for Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream") and signaled a continued embrace of the dance-pop that was ahead of the curve on Spears' most recent albums (2007's "Blackout" and 2008's "Circus") but is now inescapable. Will this be to their detriment?

 

Gottwald doesn't think so. "Everything is in cycles, and it will change, but I don't think [2011]is necessarily that year," he says. He adds, however, that the intent with Spears' album is to push the sound forward. "Hopefully you'll hear a progression," he says, "while keeping great songs."

 

There's proof beyond the early success of "Hold It Against Me'" that Spears can still mobilize millions of fans, commanding as much attention with a photographed Starbucks run as with a cryptic tweet. And until more music is available, teasing will have to suffice. "Britney's 2nd single is gonna be fire!!!!!!" Gottwald tweeted Jan. 16. "Watch out!!!!!!"

People: Britney Spears Returning to 'Edgy' Sound on New Album

 

While Britney Spears's new single, "Hold It Against Me," may have provided an upbeat preview of her new album, what will the rest of the work sound like?

 

"It's way more edgy than the last album," songwriter Claude Kelly, who composed several tracks for the as-yet-untitled album, tells PEOPLE at a New York NARAS reception. He adds that Spears, 29, is returning to the grittier sounds of 2007's Blackout. "[it's] more in the vein of the album before," he says.

 

Though Kelly admits he's not completely sure what the "final product is going to be," he does say, "the last album [2008's Circus] was more clean pop. [its purpose] was to reintroduce Britney to the world as the pop princess."

 

As the first single also indicates, Spears, who Tweeted from her "Hold It Against Me" video shoot this weekend, has new tunes are definitely club-worthy.

 

"She's always ready," Kelly says. "Dr. Luke and Max Martin are running the show, and it's all about the beats. It has a heavier bass line and it's much harder, more urgent, more club. She's ready again!"

Where is the album title, tracklisting, album cover or anything?!?! :(
