Will.i.am shocked fans by announcing a collaboration with Britney Spears. The single, releasing July 18, is titled “Mind Your Business.”

After learning that the two icons will reunite on a new track, the internet is in a frenzy. The last collaboration between Will.i.am and Britney Spears was 2012’s, “Scream & Shout.” In May, the music video for this single hit one billion views. This achievement reflects the song’s lasting influence and relevance.

Will.i.am posted a 16-second clip on Twitter teasing the new single. The nostalgic sound is accompanied by Spears’ classic line, “Britney B*tch.” It seems as though the artists are very aware of their target audience. Many of the fans looking forward to the release of the single remember the older collaborations between the two.

After doing a deep-dive on the new release, it is rumored that this single was originally made for the album Britney Jean. This has fans speculating over whether the sound will be consistent with that of her earlier album. Other rumors claimed that filming for the “Mind Your Business” music video was already underway in London on July 9.

New music releases aren’t the only thing coming for fans. Following her recent struggles, Spears is beginning to open up and share her story. Her memoir, The Woman in Me, is set to be released on October 24. Spears will talk about her journey throughout the past few years, which sparked public controversy and gained the attention of millions.
