Britney Spears: Artist Discussion

[Maximillian]

Blackout has stood the test of time for so many reasons — a near perfect album. But to look back on that album, and the messaging of it, with now knowing what all was to come in Britney’s life …. It makes it even more powerful to listen to.

I was driving home from somewhere at night with the radio on and suddenly there was a pause and then "It's Britney Bitch" and I was floored! No idea what was about to come but it was so iconic

[eyeofthestorm]

I’m not like everyone else. The first time I heard GM I was horrified, not because I didn’t like the song, but because the media were already having their field day with her. Then here she comes with this dark, slinky, grungy club anthem and I was like “oh god they’re drag her through mud some more” Then all the other mess happened after. Wasn’t good memories for me.

I’m glad to know today that it really was just the media being the media and that Britney actually likes the album and had a lot of input.

Not me just realizing THAT Zoe Salanda is the same one in crossroads :facepalm

The LQ scanned covers for OIDIA and Britney are FINALLY gone now.

And happy 17th anniversary of The Bible of Pop™.

[SHOOTER]

The Bible that none of these main pop girlies are reading. Granted, Britney is such a singular force of nature so it can never be fully replicated but pop music could be far more interesting right now if they were at least trying to think forward with their sound.

On top of being the greatest pop album of all time, it’s also a great album to have on during Spooky season. Fitting that it was released during the October month.

Honestly Blackout is great but may I say that In The Zone deserves the same love? It was a great album and it could have gone 6 singles deep if handled properly.

[think pink.]

“Break The Ice” is just *chefs kiss*. The production on the bridge/outro is euphoric. Danja was in his fuckin bag.

[Marooned@Midnight]

In The Zone and Blackout are absolutely her two essential albums. Glory might take third place, but it’s not competing for top two. ITZ and BO are so different that it’s wild to even compare them. They interchange #1 and #2 for me though. In The Zone is more about the individual tracks. Blackout is more of a full experience. Pop music doesn’t get better than these two records.

Gimme More has been out-streaming BOMT for a couple of days now.

[Coco Yu'Kneek- Saint]

Their entire set was cackle worthy and laughable but this rendition of Britney was the final moment when I fell out

Get yo ass of the stage and out of those ten sizes too small outfits

[think pink.]

Not everyone can be BSB. Bless them.

I always thought that ooh ooh baby would be a great single and music video. The video could revolve around her being a witch and brewing potions.

Her smile and beauty here is off the charts 🤩

It's so iconic how her top 5 most streamed songs are all solo and from 5 different albums/eras

[Ryan]

Britney at #6? This whole thing is exhausting.

[munx 🐒🎯]

I’m gonna cackle at who’s above her. The only people IMO worthy would be Madonna, Michael, and Janet.

[pnobelysk]

I adore her. Probably more than the others above her on the list. But she’s about 10 years now into not extending her legacy. Work bitch was the last thing (the Elton duet was cute at best but not exactly pop star ground shaking) and I don’t blame her at all for the gap clearly she has much bigger stuff going on. But there’s a good chance she’s Largely don’t commercially besides her past work. While others above her are likely active with way more on the horizon.

YAS! 👏🏻

I called Britney at #6 since they’ve been emphasizing artists that have maintained chart relevancy in recent years, so her 10+ years of relative chart silence definitely hurt her. Rih might be 5th bc of that too, though she streams insanely well, even now.

Happy 23rd today to this album!! I have always been completely enthralled by the color scheme of that album cover, ever since I first saw it as a kid. I can’t think of another piece of media art that has a color palette quite like it. Such an enchanting and distinct vibe from it, which is why it’s my favorite album cover of hers.

Oh and #JusticeForCinderella, let’s make it a hit now. lol

I’ve always said this. Did she have great beats & production? Yeah. But her voice is what made those songs great. Look at how shitty her songs sounded when the Glee cast covered them. Same exact production, just different vocals and yet It was night and day.

[It’s me again, bitch]

What has David Foster produced for her?

Nothing. He just recognizes talent.

Another Halloween passes by without "Scary" on streaming. Speaking of things I want on streaming, since it's now Christmas/Holiday season, I wish this Japanese exclusive was available on streaming as well:

Of course, we should all be streaming this modern day Christmas classic in the meantime:
