A summary from @PokemonSpears:

Quote

I know you've worked with Britney Spears . I think I've read that you sent me some tweets of support or maybe you reached out to her . Any Britney Spears thoughts ?

Britney Spears is one of the nicest , kindest . Sweetest people that I've ever worked with . And when I worked with her . I didn't read , I didn't realize she had a conservative was a conservatorship , she she'd had a conservatorship while we were working . Because in my head , why would she need one ? She was perfectly fine . Like . Collaborating on time , totally lucid , yeah , devourer out of it or anything , 100 percent , 100 percent alert in a studio . And we worked for a couple of years . You know , we worked on Scream and Shout together , we worked on big fat base first , then scream & shout , then I worked on Femme Fatale . We shot music videos . And every time I work with her or meet up like show , you look beautiful , she was like , yeah , you know , I write a lot of people that I work with . They always write everything , and I really want to write a lot on this femme fatale record , I'm like , OK , let's try a different process . Why don't I interview you ? And then we turn your interview into songs , and if I go to my phone , because this is the phone that I use when I was working with Britney back in 2009 . 13 . These were the notes , and it kind of is like , damn , it breaks my heart . Because I'm like , yo , she was . Alert , beautiful , strong , excited , creative on so why does a person that is rocking at that level ? Why can't she make her own decisions ?

So . One of the notes were . March 19th , 2013 . We were talking about a getaway or the escape . To my dream , fantastic getaway , she wants to soak it up and bask in the wonder of it , so am I . So what's on your mind right now ? So she was like , I want to get away to the Xscape , so I was like , oh , that sounds like a love that I love that to the escape . So and I was like , OK , so next one , what else is on your mind ? Then we order food and we eat . Oh , and then she says that I don't want to bring the love of my life to see what I love .

You're reading from your phone , right ?

I'm reading from my phone right now . Right . To a tropical beach with champagne's a mimosa like . So I'm getting details . So as she says that , I'm like , OK , what would you want to do if you wanted this getaway escape ? So she'd be like , yeah , I want to bring the love to my life to see the things that I love . OK , and what would you do ? She was like , I would be like a tropical Bede's with champagne , mimosas . And so the reason why you want to go in those details is when you're writing and you're transcribing these notes , you want to be like , you know , champagne , mimosas with my , you know , to show my love the most . The things that I want to do when I hosta like , I'll just go go in and go through the notes . So it's like her mind is now my mind as I'm writing it because she fed my mind . It's a totally different way to write . So then there's another one like cheers to us . Here's to us . She wanted to have like she's like I like cheers to us . Then there's this other one . The journey , trials and tribulations stain on the dream . Even though you're discouraged by disappointment , you have the courage to keep going . I'm like , wow . Right , and so when I'm when I was there , I had no clue up until when I when I saw him , when I heard her , you know , her testimony . And I'm like , wow , this is the same emotion , the same desire that was captured in 2013 when we were working . You know ,

have you did you talk to or did you reach out to her ?

No , no . It's like she's probably the hardest person to get a hold of .

Oh , really ?

Yeah . And that's . And that's . Probably both ways , probably she wants it that way and maybe they want it that way , the conservatorship .

I'm still listening and I just got depressed with their talk about people that didn't follow their dreams and end up working in construction  

[Avenger]

I am still listening!

they don't start talking about her until around 50 min mark

[Avenger]

I heard it - nothing really big he said apart from Britney is the hardest person to get a hold of and maybe Britney wants it that way or the people who manage her wants this! Apart from this I feel nothing is worth transcribing. 

[PokemonSpears]

Not he messing BJ's name for Femme Fatale

 

 

[PokemonSpears]

he says he didn't know she was under a conservatorship, she said that a lot of people she work with they write everything, but she now wanted to write a lot on Femme Fatale (he said that instead of Britney Jean lol). So he suggested interviewing her and turning that interview into songs. 

He says she was beautiful, alert, excited. 100% in the studio. 

 

He mentions one of his notes: March 19, 2013 - we were talking about a getaway or escape to my dream fantastic getaway, she wants to soak it up and bask in the wonder of it. She said I wanna get away to the escape. 

She said "I don't wanna bring the love of my life to see what I love to a tropical beach with champagnes of mimosa" (he was literally reading the notes from his phone)

There's more, but I gotta go to the Hearing thread

He doesn't even remember the name of the record he produced.

I guess those 3 or 4 days he worked on the album weren't that memorable. 

[amiro1989]

Will.I.Am's writing process is the absolute pits. They had to go for someone who doesn't care at all for the lyrical content. I almost think this was voluntary from Team CON.

Same.

I will never forgive him for BJ. 

[AjBritFan]

Why do people hate Will.I.Am so much here? I'm not super familiar with him outside of Scream & shout and that he helped make BJ. Do people hate him just because BJ sucked or is he kinda controversial/problematic?

BJ was teased to be blackout 2.0 and she had William orbit and Danja on board. Then Will.I.**** came on board and executive produced the techno mess that is Bryony Jessica

Thanks for saying what he said. Idk why people post links and that's it. Especially when it's a long *** interview.

Don't we now know that it wasn't his fault, though? Didn't he say the album was finished, and it was more personal, and that her team ultimately rejected it? And then he had to scramble to find new songs at the last minute? I can't for the life of me find the interview where he said this, but I think that's why it was only ten songs long, a lot of them were demos from other artists, and probably why they relied on Myah so much. It was thrown together at the last minute so they wouldn't miss the Vegas tie-in. I'm not at all a will.i.am fan, but I don't think the BJ mess was entirely his fault. As we're learning, Team Con had final say on everything, and the artists Britney collaborated with were subjected to their meddling.

He said that he doesn't understand why she's in a cship and he didn't know she was because every time she worker with him, she was alerta, looked beautiful and was focused and she actually came up to hom saying she wanted to write more instead of having people write songs for her.
