Black Eyed Peas' Will.i.am has revealed that Britney Spears' new album is a "monster".

The producer is currently working with the singer on her anticipated new album 'Femme Fatale'.

''I just came from the studio right now. It's a monster," Will.i.am told The Associated Press.

He added: "It's mean, pretty, edgy, next level. But the beat just... It's that beat. She's singing fresh over it. It's something that today needs."
