Anyone else obsessed with Mind Your Business? The song is good and TBH, it has been something that we’ve added to our workout playlist. No regrets.
While there has been a lot of talk about when the song was recorded, we’re more interested in the writing of it. You may have seen that Britney has a writing credit on the song. So when did they write it? How did it work?
In an interview with Variety, Will.i.am talked about writing with Britney.
He said, “As far as writing, we wrote it together. We’d meet up for lunch sessions in the Valley, talk about life, I’d take notes about what we discussed. She’d ask to change this, change that. She’s the first person I wrote like that with – let’s just sit and chat about life, love, news, pop culture products. Just talk… I’d show her song structures, rhymes, metaphors. She’d shape and edit the lyrics. It was the same with the music. Since the start, I changed the music around. The beat was all dance. But on this one part, “Wheresheat-wheresheat-wheresheat,” she wanted something hip-hop, sparse and half-time. That’s dope. She had other awesome ideas too for “Mind Your Business,” but it was so juicy, it would be great for a brand new freaking song – and this was last week. She’s always coming up with new songs. I can’t wait.”
We can’t wait to hear what Britney does next, but we will say that we’re obsessed with Mind Your Business. Listen to it below.
