There's been another leak! No, not that kinda leak.

Britney Spears' latest album, Britney Jean, featured a variety of tracks for her longtime fans to enjoy, and had quite the star-studded collaboration list—will.i.am executive produced it, along with some help from Dr. Luke, David Guetta, Diplo, Katy Perry and Sia, to name a few. But there was still some creations that didn't make the cut.

However, these unreleased demos demand to be heard, and thanks to the trusted Internet, two unreleased songs that were slated to be on the album leaked today.

The two untitled tracks, uploaded on SoundCloud by an anonymous user, were done by indie pop producer Devonté "Dev" Hynes aka Blood Orange, who has collaborated with Solange Knowles and Sky Ferreira.

You'll hear Hynes voice on the tracks, and although it's not what we'd usually hear from Brit Brit, it's not too hard to imagine her vocals on the songs. And they're kinda amazing, so it's a little sad that we'll never know what would have become of them.

Blood Orange caught wind of what happened earlier, but didn't seem to mind much. He tweeted, "How do things even leak?? Oh well! Enjoy."

During an interview with The Guardian last year, Hynes labeled himself as a huge Spears "fan." He added, "maybe just a bit more than most 27-year-olds—she's such a huge part of our growing up. And I'm just not sure whether will.i.am or whoever really care about her."
