Britney Spears fans: Pay attention! 2013 may be bringing you some new Spears tunes.

The pop princess announced over Twitter that she’s been “working hard” on a new album and is “collaborating with some new inspiring producers.”

The new music reveal came over a series of Twitter Q&A’s with her fans. One fan asked about Brit’s future as an X Factor host to which she replied, “Really focused on my music right now.” That diversion of the question does not sound like she’s going to be returning to the show next season.

This new album would be her eighth studio one. Songwriter Elijah Blake dished to That Grape Juice about writing songs with Brit.

“I would say it’s definitely the ‘unexpected’ Britney in so many ways, in that she’s playing with new textures and stomping on new grounds and genres,” he shared earlier this month, adding that another top-line talent has also joined the project.

“From talking to her, she’s definitely trying to push the envelope this time — and really talk from a more personal point of view, and with Rodney Jerkins by her side, I’m hella excited. You’re talking about Darkchild, the guy who changes music over and over again and never runs out of ideas. This album is gonna be crazy!”
