Spice Girls’ original producer Richard ‘Biff’ Stannard doesn’t think new music would harm the group’s legacy.
Alongside producing, Biff co-wrote a number of massive hits for the ‘90s icons, including 2 Become 1, Spice Up Your Life, Viva Forever and their breakout track Wannabe.
He previously reunited with the girls in 2007 for their reunion, which spawned the single Headlines (Friendship Never Ends), and he’s convinced they could strike gold with another collaboration.
“[Have there been] discussions about new music? No,” he tells The Sun. “I feel like maybe I could start that discussion but I don’t think the pandemic has helped that, really.
“Do I think a fourth album would hurt their legacy? Not if it was great.”
To celebrate their 25th anniversary, the group recently released a four-track ‘Wannabe 25’ EP, featuring the classic single, written by Biff and Matt Rowe, plus new track Feed Your Love, co-written by the pair along with Spice Girls.
And Emma Bunton recently admitted she’s keen to hit the studio and record some new tracks with the group, which is down to four members due to the departure of Victoria ahead of their 2019 reunion tour.
“I love writing with the girls, we have such a laugh in the studio,” she said.
Mel B also recently discussed the possibility of new music from the group, admitting: “We’ve been more about the lines of doing music together and hopefully getting the tour up and running because everything got shut down because of lockdown.
“My aim is for us to get back together and do some more songs together – and hopefully getting up on stage and entertaining everybody again.”
