Britney Spears teamed up with will.i.am for her first single from her upcoming album, and you can tell. 'Work Bitch' sounds pretty similar to their prior collaboration, 'Scream and Shout.' And from the sounds of it, Spears' team wanted to scream and shout when the track leaked early.

'Work Bitch' was set to debut later today (Sept. 16) on radio, but a low quality version was leaked online yesterday (Sept. 15). This made BritBrit (and, let's be real, her handlers) sad:

Longtime Spears video and TV producer Adam Leber was especially peeved at the leak:

Spears' team worked hard to get the actual mastered single out to compensate for the breach, and when they did, the reaction was fast and furious. Spears' army really knows how to, well, work (bitch), nabbing her the No. 4 spot on iTunes as of this writing.

That, in turn, made BritBrit happy.
