Shortly after “Mind Your Business” came out, the Black Eyed Peas frontman told TMZ Live that he has “always loved working with Britney” and revealed that she actually created a brand new song while they were collaborating on their latest single. “I can tell you from this experience of fine tuning, Mind Your Business, um, she went over some ideas, like, ‘Hey put this on it,’ and I’m like, ‘Yo, Britney, this is idea, that you just gave right now, is actually a new song. This is freaking crazy,’” he recalled.

“She gave this idea,” he continued. “I was like, ‘Wow, wow, wait, you can’t just throw this away in this song. This is a whole song within itself.’ She has ideas and an idea factory. I could only imagine that Britney is sitting on a plethora of songs that she’s done with different producers. I’m pretty sure her and Pharrell probably have stuff that was unreleased.”

“I’m pretty sure that she has to have… no artist that is that prolific, that’s an idea machine, doesn’t have a plethora of song,” he added. “The moment she goes in the studio and focuses on a record, you know it’s going to be earth shattering. I just, it’s going to be earth scattering because there’s not that many people that have been through what she’s been through that is going to help folks that having similar situations.”

In a separate interview with Extra, the Grammy winner gushed about Britney’s impact on pop culture. “The icons, growing up in the 90s – Michael Jackson and Prince — these pop icons, that was like if you grew up in the ‘80s and ‘90s, those were the ones,” he said. “You know — Madonna, Michael Jackson, Prince, Lionel Richie. And then, in the late ’90s, 2000, you had, like, the Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC… Britney was the shining star for a new generation of a pop star.”

He also said that he feels “joy” from the singer, even despite her divorce from actor Sam Asghari. “I don’t see Britney every day, but I see her the way a lot of people see her, and that is what she shares on Instagram, and what I see on Instagram is joy,” he said.

“I see her loving to express herself and dance,” he continued. “I see frustration when it comes to people prying into her private life. But I see joy. I see a person that has fought for their independence and that is inspirational.”
