New Madonna album has hip-hop feel
Producer Nate 'Danja' Hills has revealed details of Madonna's forthcoming album.

Danja has been working with Timbaland in London on Madonna's 11th studio album and said fans can expect "a very different sound" from the singer.

Speaking to Rolling Stone, Danja said: "She wanted up-tempo, dance, club music, and for everything to have a hip-hop underlining."

Madonna was a fan of Danja's work with Timbaland on Justin Timberlake's FutureSex/LoveSounds and was eager to bring them on board for her new record.

"She would just come in, sit in her chair in the corner and just vibe with us," Danja said. "She was very down-to-earth, very cool person, very easy."

The album's first single, 'Four Minutes To Save The World', will be released in March. The untitled LP is due for release on April 29 in the US.
