Posted January 15, 200718 yr Q: Can you talk a little bit like when you sit in the room with Britney, what’s your process in terms of getting information out of them and how does it influence your songs? Ne-Yo: Pretty much the same way that this is going on. You ask questions and you get the answers. As far as Britney, her whole thing was she’s tired of talking about Kevin, tired of comeback songs. She said she has a CD disk changer of 12 CD’s full of Britney’s back songs and she was like, ‘Can I just make a song? Does it have to be my triumphant return every time?’ And you know, I was like, ‘I see your point.’ So I didn’t give her one of those. She’s like, ‘I just want hit records. That’s all.’ So I said, ‘Look, alright.’ Q: Did Columbus [short] give you any advice about working with her because I know he choreographed? Ne-Yo: Nah, he didn’t really give me any advice as far as working with her. She’s a lot stronger than people would think and she’s not as – I mean I hate to put it this way – but she’s not as dumb as people think she is. She’s really not, you know. Her whole thing is like, ‘I’m human. I’ve made a bunch of mistakes. Okay, I see that, but goodness gracious, must I be crucified for jaywalking?’ is basically how she looks at it. It’s like ‘They hung me on a cross because I crossed the street. C’mon. What’s going on?’ And it’s true, you know, she’s one of those people where the slightest little thing and it’s like, "Oh my god, Britney’s a crack addict. Wow!’ Q: Well, out in public without her drawers on and showing it is more than a little … Ne-Yo: I don’t know if that was purposely done but I mean, you know, she’s … I don’t know. I’m not gonna sit here and make no excuses for Britney. Source I love Ne-Yo now :P
January 15, 200718 yr Aw! I'm looking forward to what he does for her! He wrote Unfaithful so this should be a good ballad :D
January 16, 200718 yr He also wrote Irreplaceable which is another ballad I love so I am expecting good things. :D
January 16, 200718 yr I hope he does a relaxing slow song with her,one that can be put on the radio at night and help me sleep :lol: :D ^_^ i would love that
January 16, 200718 yr I would love something like 'Irreplacable' It seems like it was wrote just for Kevin Federline :P Edited January 16, 200718 yr by Tyler
January 17, 200718 yr Author There are lots of songs she could be singing about the divorce or about K-Fed, but I think she will move on. If there's any "revenge" kind of song, I'd love any Rachel Stevens type of hit, like "So Good" or "Sweet Dreams My LA Ex", those would be perfect for Britney, too bad Rachel already recorded and released them :P
January 17, 200718 yr after Unfaitful, Irrrepalceable and his own Sexl Love i'm looking forward 2 a hot r&b ballad :wub: he's cool :D

AGH, im so excited :cheer:
