Some of Britney's music sounds very much like Prince. For example -- I'm A Slave 4 U and Boys. I wonder if he is secretly producing her.

no, that's the Neptunes, who do, on occasion, have a Prince-like quality to some of the songs they produce.

yep neptunes..

Ithink the music of Britneys 'Slave' song sounds a lot like "Nasty Girl"

It's got some samples in there

I'm sure that was the intention. And I'm not ashamed to say I dig that groove, even if Britney doesn't interest me.

Helllooo...she used Princebonics in the song title and hired Mayte to assist with the dance moves...

LOL

"britney's" music would be influenced by no one because she is a produced project. the influence would be on behalf of whomever is writing for her at the moment, and to add to what the others have said, tracks like slave for you was written and produced by the neptunes. i haven't had a chance to check (industry)sources yet, but i do believe that they kind of lifted the slave loop straight from "nasty girl"...or at least cahnged it just enough to prevent them from being sued...or even better, they might have just lifted the loop, put it through mac/pro tools to change it a little, and prince having to give permission for them to use it, will have gotten a NICE little piece of dough from it...keeps everybody out of court ( throwing the money away on legal fees) and making a little extra cash when you do it that way.

i hear no simmilarity between in the closet/nasty girl OR slave4u/nasty girl.

i don't know where you got "in the closet" from, but as for "slave 4 u" and "nasty girl" then you're deaf.

It is the one of the same. If you fast forward about 9 - 11 seconds into Nasty Girls .. they are the same, just one is slowed down.

I talk to someone in the Prince Camp.. lets say and He told me Prince was going to sue her.

But I have NO clue if they settled out of court or what happened

It would not suprise me. Prince has his little high heel in everything. But perhaps its because I hear Prince in my head without even hearing him and it just starts to blend on a freakish level!

Brittney is a 80's Kid&I hear&See MJ,Prince&Madonna there&Others from that time period in Her overall Presentation to a certain degree.

lemonpie, the avatar is cool...

I think the Neptunes are HUGE Prince fans, wasn't there an article on this very site that 'Pharreal' wrote "Frontin'" for Prince anyway?
