Lady Gaga's Producer RedOne Says Next LP Will Be 'Shocking'

By Simone Hilliard

When Lady Gaga proclaims her latest effort is "the absolute greatest work I've ever done," and that her next masterpiece is scheduled for a 2011 release, it's easy to see why Gagaloos everywhere are anxiously clamoring for Gagita news wherever they can get it. Today's installment comes from The Fame and The Fame Monster producer RedOne.

While the Moroccan-Swedish powerhouse behind Gaga's monster hits "Just Dance," "Love Game," "Poker Face," "Bad Romance" and "Alejandro" couldn't reveal any specific information about the album, the producer assured fans the new material is worth waiting for.

RedOne dropped some hints with Billboard about the new LP:

"It's going to be shocking, shocking, shocking! 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!'

When you heard 'Bad Romance' after 'Poker Face,' it was like the best thing you've ever heard. We want that type of reaction. I think that's part of my job and her job -- to keep her evolving."

RedOne (aka Nadir Khayat) confirms that he has worked with Gagaloo on two tracks and describes both as "massive" hits-to-be:

"We try to take the sound and make it bigger and more interesting every time. And every time and era has its sound; you always want to be the first to jump on it."

RedOne and Gaga's studio synergy has proven its platinum power time and time again. The duo collaborated on nine tracks on her first two albums.

RedOne recalled their initial meeting:

"When I met her I just felt her energy -- and of course she was dressed in that special way [that] caught my eye. She had this energy and was so knowledgeable of music. She makes an impression on you right away. Immediately I thought, 'I can do something big with this girl.'" 

Something big, indeed. Gaga is certainly poised to be the voice of a new generation!
