The 8th Studio Album by Britney released in 2013 and the 6th of our Album Rankdown Series, we have Britney Jean
Usually agreed upon by most fans and critics alike as her worst album, Britney Jean scored a 50 on Metacritic It spawned two singles which ended up being its two best songs by a longshot and mostly was a tie in with her then newly announced Piece Of Me residency show With 13 tracks to rank, your participation will help decide which songs rise to the top and which songs will flop!
Things to Know:
1. You play by ranking the songs by your most favorite being your #1, your least favorite being in last place in this case, last place is #13 2. Once your done with you ranking, copy and paste it into a message and send it to me your host, @mirza 3. Please listen to all songs before ranking, it's no fun to unfairly rank things, and try to submit by the due date 4. I will be using the least points wins system 5. This rankdown's due date will be strictly set to its assigned date, no extensions this go around, sorry!
Tracklist:
1. Alien
2. Work Bitch
3. Perfume
4. It Should Be Easy (ft. will.i.am)
5. Tik Tik Boom (ft. T.I.)
6. Body Ache
7. Til It's Gone

MY TIME HAS COME! Fave album ever! Well at least one of us is excited I hate this album lol but its what the people voted for I have legit stanned this album since it leaked almost 7 years ago... Peeps love to bring down this album when all they have to do, as I do with music I don't like, skip it and move on... I could write a thesis on this album... |

I actually really like this album and think it has a lot to say/offer. It’s not top 3 for me, but I’m sure it’s top 5. I think many are overly dramatic about its shortcomings and unwilling to give credit to the things it does really well. There are a few absolute clunkers, but there are way more highlights IMO.

I do thing people are overly rude about this album. It's one thing not to like it, but I see plenty of comments on different forums and Twitter and such that are just so unnecessarily cruel and I truly hope everyone who ranks this album gives it a fair chance despite the general consensus.

I honestly think a lot of these songs are okay on their own, but as an album it's way too incoherent.

The album is alright but at times it feels overproduced and at times Britney just doesn't sound good, something felt missing entirely. At times it just doesn't feel like Britney at all but rather a lifeless imitation over generic production.
I don't hate the album I definitely am not really a fan of it.
Work Bitch and Perfume are both really good though
I also keep Passenger
The rest of the album ranges from subpar to ehhhhh territory for me.
I did give the album a fair shot again and relistened to it all, my thoughts about it are mostly the same aside from liking Now That I Found You more than I had recalled in the past.

Can anyone tell me what song Now That I Found You reminds me of? It was a big pop radio hit around a year before this album dropped. But I don't think I've heard it since. ???

Damn, these comments are a far cry from what I heard over the years...
Makes me happy tbh
(I legit would get death threats for saying how much I love this album ._. )
This album literally saved my life...

At times it just doesn't feel like Britney at all but rather a lifeless imitation over generic production. Rumour has it that's exactly what happened (hence the infamous nickname "Myah Jean"). According to Wikipedia, ' Claims were made that Myah Marie, a backing vocalist present on Spears's albums "Circus" and "Femme Fatale", sang lead vocals on a large portion of this song ["Passenger"] as well as other songs on the album' |

If you listen to some of the stems, it's insane how obvious it is when the vocals aren't Britney. I love it but if there's an Acapella Brightest Morning Star on YouTube, you can clearly hear the chorus isn't Britney's voice. 😢 Same with the high note in Passenger. 😓

Am I the only one who thinks they over-photoshopped her face on the cover? I just feel it doesn't look too much like her. Could be just me.

Honestly all her cover arts suck imo A lot of them her face looks weird or unflattering, especially Blackout onwards Only good cover we got was the new one for Glory this year which by far is her best |

You could make a side rankdown sometime of the album covers that could be pretty fun to do, and include both Glory's. 😈
What will win WORST ALBUM COVER? That one will honestly feel like the winner. 😂

Not Myah Jean, although this is true.  Anyway, the superior self-titled album to be next, please. |
