Wiki:

"Slumber Party" is a song recorded by American recording artist Britney Spears for her ninth studio album, Glory (2016). It was written by Mattias Larsson, Robin Fredriksson, Julia Michaels and Justin Tranter, and produced by Mattman & Robin. The duo was also responsible for vocal production along with Mischke. The song was released as the second single from the album, on November 16, 2016, featuring vocals from American singer Tinashe in a remix version. A reggae-pop and R&B track, "Slumber Party" features brass, marimba, "syncopated synths", percussion and a horn section in its instrumentation. Lyrically, the song is defined as an ode to fornication and making sex tapes, where Spears uses double entendre, while evoking one-night stands, the ritual of sleepovers with friends and the teenage game of seven minutes in heaven. A music video directed by Colin Tilley was shot on October 25, 2016, and according to Spears, has an Eyes Wide Shut theme. The video was released on November 18, 2016. It features Spears and Tinashe during a sleepover-themed masquerade party in a mansion, where they are seen in rooms filled with bubbles, smoke and flashing lights. Spears added "Slumber Party" to the setlist of her residency show, Britney: Piece of Me. "Slumber Party" was written by Mattias Larsson, Robin Fredriksson, Julia Michaels and Justin Tranter, with production being done by Mattman & Robin. Mattman & Robin were also responsible for vocal production, along with Mischke, as well as programming, drums, percussion, snaps, handclaps, synths, guitars, bass, marimba and brass. Michaels, on the other hand, provided background vocals. The song was recorded at 158 Studios, Westlake Village, California, Wolf Cousins Studios, Stockholm, Sweden, and at Conway Recording Studios, Los Angeles, California. "Slumber Party" is a reggae-pop and R&B track, that lasts for three minutes and thirthy-four seconds (3:34). It has "a sinuous groove accented by brass and marimba", "syncopated synths", "cooing backing vocals" and percussion. Its final chorus features "a bombastic horn section." For Alex Macpherson of The Guardian, the song "is reminiscent of Spears' 2003 album, 'In the Zone'." Lewis Corner of Digital Spy noted that the song has a 'Hotline Bling'-style, a statement that Gay Times' Daniel Megarry and No Ripcord's Luiza Lodder agreed. Lyrically, "Slumber Party" talks about sex[30][31] and was considered an "ode to fornication" and making sex tapes,[26] where Spears uses an "euphemism for one-night stands",[32] while invoking the "ritual of sleepovers with friends"[25] and "the teenage game of seven minutes in heaven."[32] In the pre-chorus, she promises, "We ain't gonna sleep tonight",[30] while during the chorus, she sings, "We use our bodies to make our own videos/ Put on our music that makes us go f**king crazy, oh."[26]
