Britney Spears - Glory Album
Britney Spears - Glory

Glory is the ninth studio album by American singer Britney Spears. RCA Records released the album on August 26, 2016. It became available for pre-order on all music digital distribution platforms at midnight ET on August 3, 2016. Spears released the first single from the album, "Make Me...", on July 15, 2016. Alongside the pre-order, a new track was released, titled "Private Show", which was previously teased in the commercial for the fragrance of the same name. Since the announcement of the album, Spears has further teased the new music through the release of promotional singles "Clumsy" and "Do You Wanna Come Over?".

In August 2014, Spears confirmed she had renewed her contract with RCA, and that she was writing and recording new music. In an interview with Billboard in March 2015, Spears said that she was working on a new album "slowly but surely." In July 2015, Spears was pictured working with writers Chantal Kreviazuk and Simon Wilcox alongside producer Ian Kirkpatrick; in that same month, DJ Mustard announced that he was working on the album. In March 2016, Spears said that she was "being more hands-on" with the album and that it is "the best thing I've done in a long time," though she noted that she did not know when the album would be finished and that she is "not rushing anything [...] so that my fans will truly appreciate it."
