LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Her latest album, “Blackout,” isn’t yet a year old, but already Britney Spears is working on recording the follow up.

Before she traveled to Kentwood, Louisiana, earlier this week to be by the side of her teen sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, who gave birth on Thursday, Britney was hitting the studio with Jim Beanz, the producer told Us Weekly.

“Britney is amazing,” Beanz told Us.

Though Britney continues to battle things out in the courtroom over her child custody issues and the conservatorship she is under, none of the drama plays out when the two are working, according to Beanz.

“Everyone has personal stuff, but a true professional doesn’t bring it into the studio,” he said.
