rumor RUMOR: according to an insider, Atlantic Records wants to sign with Britney

Sounds like a good idea. She needs a refreshment.

I mean, there's like zero reasons to believe in this, but pretending there's truth in there, I guess nothing can't be worse than RCA (I hate to use that phrase, 'cause there's ALWAYS something worse) and I guess that if someone is "trying everything" to sign Britney it's because they actually have plans for her, so that should be positive.

I don't really know if she's interested (her team) in changing labels.

Changing for Atlantic means work hard, and we're talking about Britney. 

[redacted statement]

this looks pretty genuine because it seems like the tweeter is just a random person rather than a self proclaimed insider.. that's great news if it's true..  she'd be label mates with Bruno Mars, Trashy B, Charli XCX, Charlie Puth (daddy), Clean Bandit, Coldplay, David Guetta, Ed Sheeran, Janelle Monae, Kelly Clarkson (I guess she left RCA for Atlantic), Marina, Melanie Rapetinez, Missy Elliot, Sia, Skrillex.. that's a pretty good lineup..

I'm not sure if Britney could even leave, she's still tied to a contract with RCA as she renewed it after BJ and I think she has 3 more albums left in her contract before she could leave. Atlantic are a much better label than RCA though (although I still question why they signed Bhad Bhabie and the yodeling kid whatever his name is).

she better work, *term of endearment*

 

Again, if someone is eagerly looking for her it's because they want her no matter what, so the least thing they'll want is to make her feel uncomfortable or pressured.

I don't know how it works (if she changes record labels, does the new label have to pay for the rights of her old catalogue? Is it even possible?) but I think just having ownership of Britney's "catalogue" or legacy is enough for them to do things, even against her will.

I've always said it. If the label wants to release a song as a single, they could perfectly do it even if Britney doesn't want to, or doesn't want to promote it. That shouldn't be an impediment to send the song to the radio or upload a lyric video or even an animated video lol if she refuses to film it.

Was just about to say this, she’s still legally signed for a few more albums unless they come to an agreement but RCA is dying out slowly and I doubt they’d let as big of an artist as Britney just go to another label but I’m here for it, RCA are terrible and have paid Britney DUST!

She should tbh This is much better. Would this affect b10 though? She could just release three remix albums, then switch to Atlantic, and release b10 there

There are loopholes tho. compilation albums such as remixes and a greatest hits count as an album

Yep I know that. Hopefully Britney could put another GH out (maybe after B10).

Not reliable source...

Do you know who works with Atlantic records?

Cardi, Bruno, Ed etc.

[Good4Ya]

Doesn’t she have a contract for another 3 or 4 albums with RCA? That’s what I read here in 2016... I don’t think she can opt-out that easily...

[brinty.spreas]

That’s if Britney still wants to work as a recording artist when her contract with RCA expires. She might want to retire. Let’s be real here.

[PrinceAli89]

Does anyone know how many albums she has left under her contract with RCA? 

[Spearsfan]

I wouldn’t believe this. Britney isn’t gonna change because rca lets her do nothing. 

[Alexa]

I feel like this rumor comes up every couple of years. Sadly, with Larry very much still in the picture, I don't see it happening anytime soon.

Kelly Clarkson left RCA happily so should Britney 

was just gonna say this. and apparently they give her a lot of freedom to work with who she wants and pick the direction her album should be. could be cool for britney too potentially, but i always take these rumors with a grain of salt.
