‘That’s part of my job and her job — to keep her evolving,’ he tells Billboard. By Kara Warner Lady Gaga Photo: Jeff Kravitz/ FilmMagic Hot on the heels of Lady Gaga’s confident pronouncement that her upcoming album is the “absolute greatest work I’ve ever done,” “utter liberation” and an “anthem for my generation for the next decade” comes echoing praise from a reliable — if slightly biased — source: her producer RedOne. “It’s going to be shocking, shocking, shocking!” the Moroccan/Swedish master mixer behind “Just Dance,” “LoveGame,” “Poker Face,” “Bad Romance” and “Alejandro” told Billboard of Gaga’s new music. “You never want to go too far from your brand — people love you for a reason. But we still want to give them something with a kick, something that makes them say, ‘Oh my God! We didn’t expect this!’ ” RedOne (real name: Nadir Khayat) said a big part of his job and future collaborations with Gaga are about evolution. “When you heard ‘Bad Romance’ after ‘Poker Face,’ it was like the best thing you’ve ever heard,” he said. “We want that type of reaction. I think that’s part of my job and her job — to keep her evolving.” The producer told Billboard that he worked on at least two tracks on Gaga’s new album but also encouraged her to collaborate with others (he produced a total of nine tracks on The Fame and The Fame Monster ), though he wouldn’t divulge which hitmakers might be producing songs on the upcoming album. “After ‘Just Dance’ and ‘Poker Face,’ ‘LoveGame’ and ‘Boys Boys Boys,’ I got a sound out of her, and that made it easier for other producers,” he said. “Her sound is so defined that, no matter what, people can follow it. That sound belongs to her.” What are you expecting from Gaga’s new music? Let us know in the comments! Related Artists Lady Gaga
