Should Britney go back to the studio with Max Martin for B10?!?

[gapeach704]

 The last song Max produced for Queen Britney was in 2011?  After what Taylor said about Max being too expensive, clearly that must be why they never let B work with him on the last 3 albums. Those cheap a*ses 

[Kletus]

WAIT HE PRODUCED BABY, CRAZY,  OOPS, LUCKY, STRONGER, IUSA, 3, HOLD IT AGAINST ME, AND I WANNA GO?!?!?!?!?! 

[Isla]

I read somewhere that Billboard produced Inside Out but wasn't credited, and that Max and Dr Luke only wrote it.

I still find it hard to believe he didn't produce Don't Go Knockin' On My Door, What U See (Is What U Get) and Can't Make You Love Me from Oops... those songs literally have his sound all over them.

Max Martin and Britney together have created some of the most iconic songs in music history and developed together the “signature Britney sound” so this collaboration is a very special one and I’d love them to reunite for new music in the future.

Yes

[MissSpearsSaysSo]

I would always be extremely interested in seeing whatever kind of musical magic these two people could come up with! Britney has excellent taste, writes good lyrics, and Max Martin is just a Pop Whiz in the studio. Hopefully one day..        

[Peter Pan]

I’ll say it again here. Max, Danja and Bloodshy are the holy trinity.

I love Britney working with new producers but I’ll always welcome these producers back.

All iconic bops minus 3. They need to collaborate again.

What do you mean?

I’d love for Britney to go back and work with Max Martin if she ever chose to do music again. They make magic and I love his current music in the charts he’s a genius. She needs a little bit of a commercial bop then her second single can be something edgy and dark  Queen will have it all worked out on her own terms
