But I’ve had enough of this Britney-Britney-Britney week we’re having. It seems Entertainment Weekly isn’t going to try to make this more bearable. The magazine has obtained four pieces of unreleased, raw recorded music that are to grace Britney Spears’ fifth studio album, due out November 13th.

…the first one’s a doozy. Produced by Bloodshy & Avant, the Swedish team behind her 2004 smash ”Toxic,” ”Piece of Me” kicks off with her standard breathy-sexy growl over a thumping hook: ”I’m Mrs. American dream/ Since I was 17.” Then things get darker: ”I’m Mrs. Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous/I’m Mrs. ‘Oh my God, that Britney’s shameless’/ I’m Mrs. ‘Extra, extra, this just in’ / I’m Mrs. ‘She’s too fat, now she’s too thin.”’ At other points in the song, she refers to ”bad media karma” and insists, ”Another day, another drama/ I can’t see the harm in working hard and being a mama.” According to her reps, the song may very well be her second single after the already charting ”Gimme More.”

The spare, glitchy ”Radar” is also credited to Bloodshy, and promises, ”Boy, I’ve got my eyes on you,” accompanied by Vocoder ”da da da’’s and what sounds not unlike a real live Doppler radar machine (how method!).

”Break the Ice,” meanwhile, may remind some of Nelly Furtado’s 2007 hit ”Say It Right” — and for good reason; it also gets its sound from Nate ”Danjahandz” Hills (the producer behind ”Gimme More”).

Finally, ”Heaven on Earth,” an airy disco-queen come-on in the vein of Gwen Stefani’s Sweet Escape, was penned by songwriter Kara DioGuardi (she cowrote both Ashlee Simpson’s ”Pieces of Me” and Kelly Clarkson’s ”Walk Away,” as well as Stefani’s ”Rich Girl”).

Ok, breathe, lets move on. A lot, a lot, and a lot of albums leaked today/yesterday! We’re talking about new FOO FIGHTERS, JAMES BLUNT, and REBA. SOURCE//SOURCE//SOURCE

“Billboard has learned that today’s SoundScan Building Chart indicates first-day sales of 437,000 for West’s “Graduation,” 310,000 for 50 Cent’s “Curtis” and 107,000 for Chesney’s “Just Who I Am: Poets and Pirates.” The Building Charts offer an indication of how races shape up each week for SoundScan’s final charts, which post projected national sales each Wednesday morning, extrapolated from a panel of merchants that represents more than 90% of the U.S. music market.”
