Britney Spears' husband has rubbished speculation he treats his wife like "dirt".

Kevin Federline insists rumours he spends his time partying and neglecting his famous spouse and their baby son, Sean Preston, are completely untrue.

He told America's Newsweek magazine: "It's always, 'He hates his children, he treats his wife like dirt, he gets high all day.' If I was that bad, you think anyone, let alone Britney, would put up with it?"

The former dancer, who is trying to launch a music career, also revealed he and Britney - who tied the knot in 2004 - have worked together on some new music.

However, the fledgling rapper, who released debut single 'PopoZao' on his own website, says the songs will not feature on the record because he wants to achieve success on his own.

Federline, who hopes to release his debut album this spring, said: "We have collaborated but I'm not going to put the songs on this album because it's like, respect me first - then I'll show you what I've done with my wife."
