Producer Hit-Boy has revealed that he will be bringing hip-hop influences to Britney Spears' new album.

The pop princess is currently working towards her eight studio album, which will be the follow-up to 2011's 'Femme Fatale'.

It has previously been revealed that the likes of will.i.am will help shape the record, with Hit-Boy, who lorded over Kanye West and Jay-Z's 'N****s In Paris', also signed up.

He told MTV that he will mix his hip-hop background with her pop sensibilities on the album, creating a "global" sound. The producer said:

"I'm bringing my world to her world, so I'm infusing what I do in hip-hop and bringing pop elements to it. So it's just going to be a global sound."

He continued: "We've just been throwing ideas back and forth so far. So I can't really put a number on it or anything but it's coming together. I mean Britney, she's amazing. She's been around for years and she's gonna to continue to do her thing. I wanted to just show people that I'm not just a hip-hop producer, that I'm not just an urban world [and] that I'm just a music maker in general. When she reached out it [was] so perfect to make it happen. We went in the studio and started making some ideas already. It's coming out nice, so I'm excited about that."
