Britney Spears is making sure she's got every base covered with new album Britney Jean, and will follow noisy EDM track 'Work Bitch' with a downtempo track titled 'Promise', penned by one-woman hit machine Sia.
The professional lip-sync star and future Las Vegas resident was praised by RCA label boss Peter Edge in a new interview with Billboard magazine, who was keen to stress that her upcoming studio album isn't just the work of former Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am.
"We’re feeling really good about the Britney album," Edge tells the magazine. "We’re not quite sure how the credits are gonna be, but Will.i.am’s really the main creative on the album - but he won’t be the only one. He has a lot of great songs.
"There’s a song we feel fairly strong will be the second single called 'Perfume'. It was written by Sia and could be a big career song. It’s more of a downtempo song, but people are amazed at the quality of her vocals on it. She sings it beautifully and it has a real sincerity to it. And it’s outstanding."

He also goes on to tip 'Pull Me Down' singer/songwriter Mikky Ekko for big things in 2014, praising the rising star's debut album.
"We’ve got Mikky Ekko, who had one of the biggest songs of the year with 'Stay,' which he wrote and produced," Edge adds. "His album is outstanding - definitely gonna be one of the big albums in 2014.
"There’s some great songs on there. He’s a great vocalist and a strong artist. We were fortunate enough to get involved with Betty Who before that viral clip launched her. We had worked on a deal prior to that coming out, and were able to close that deal. We think she’s a lot of fun and a great songwriter and a great pop star in the making."
