Britney Spears is to rap on her next album.



Her producer, J.R. Rotem, has revealed her hip-hop plans and says the mum-of-two's fifth LP is going to be "crazy" and will take the 'Toxic' singer to "the next level".

He revealed to MTV: "I can tell you there's some dance stuff, there's some slow, more introspective stuff and some club tracks. She even raps a bit. Talk rap."

He added: "When she gets behind the microphone there's a magic that comes out - and the music that we're doing is the next level."

Rotem - who has previously worked with Destiny's Child and 50 Cent - also says Britney sees music as "a challenge" and always wants to better what she has done before.

He explained: "Our goal is to try to one-up the earlier stuff. How can we innovate? How can we make the type of music where the people are gonna go, 'Whoa, what's that?'"
