will.i.am is coming back with a new solo album called #willpower on February 1st. His hashtagged album title might be something we’ll be laughing at 10 years from now because of sheer irrelevance (see: mentions of pagers/beepers by artists such as 3LW and Destiny’s Child) but who am I to question the longevity of Twitter and Instagram?
“Scream & Shout” reminds me of “I’m In the House,” a song will.i.am did with DJ Steve Aoki under his pseudonym Zuper Blahq in 2010. The pumping electro beat is addicting and I can definitely imagine this getting played in a club to a dancing, throbbing crowd. This new single is heavy on the autotune with will.i.am’s vocals but Britney overshadows the faults in this song. From the dark British alter-ego she takes on for part of the song to her uttering “Britney, bitch,” Britney is totally badass here. She don’t care what you think.

Love it.
