Britney Spears “Hold It Against Me” World Premiere Jan. 7

A new year means a new musical offering from Pop “It Girl” Britney Spears.

On Friday, Jan. 7, Spears will premiere the lead single from her as-yet-untitled forthcoming album, due in March.

The track, titled “Hold It Against Me,” will debut on New York City’s Z100, the station’s Program Director Sharon Dastur said this week. The song is Spear’s first release single “3″ dropped in Sept. 2009, and those who have already snagged a beat or two of the tune think fans won’t be disappointed.

“It’s produced by Dr. Luke and Max Martin. And the beat that they give her is really unique compared to other artists — this infectious bass beat beneath the song. Plus, the hook is just amazing. It will be out on Jan. 7,” Dastur gushed to Entertainment Weekly.

Rumored lyrics to the track appeared online earlier this week, but producer Dr. Luke insisted they were not genuine, Tweeting: “I/we never wrote a song called ‘don’t hold it against me’…. BewaRe of InaccuraTe info kids 😉 We did write ‘hold it against me’ but those lyrics are NOT the lyrics … (sic)”
