If you’re quadrillion times platinum artist Beyonce, you don’t have to do much at this point. Hang out with that talented husband of yours, go to a few parties (or an indie concert), and enjoy the good life. But not one to rest on her laurels, Ms. Knowles is ready to hit the studio come 2010 for the follow up to her smash I Am… Sasha Fierce.

According to Billboard.com, Beyonce told the crowd at the Trent FM Arena in Nottingham (her last stop on the “I Am…” tour) that, “This is my last show for this tour in the UK, so hopefully, I’ll see you all in a year with a new album”. While details are almost non-existent at this point, producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins confirmed via Twitter that the man behind everyone from the Pussycat Dolls to Whitney Houston would be working with the Queen B.

Not enough to tide you over? How’s this? Alicia Keys confirmed to Billboard that the duet between herself and Beyonce, the aptly titled “Put It In A Love Song”, would be featured on Keys’ new album The Element Of Freedom, out December 15th. A nice tease of sorts.

More details to come. Here’s hoping those include a Grizzly Bear guest appearance…
