'cause Gimme More is already done?

It's annoying when people start asking for this and that 2.0. Done and dusted. Moving on... And you cannot replica anything, especially in music. Usually these songs are born out of luck and coincidence, and cannot be factored again.

I do think Brit belongs in dance music so I think that's what people mean by 2.0. I'd consider Femme Fatale a Blackout 2.0, for example, kind of like a lighter version of it.

all i say i want something different from all artist now doing, britney always been like that but when she followed the edm thing we all know what happened

 

Nobody is doing bubblegum dance pop anymore, at least without specifying which genre it belongs into like Lady Gaga, but that's how Britney made it big, and why people love her. I can't remember where, I think Rolling Stones, voted How I Roll one of the best songs in 2011 or something like that, and that was probably the most "Britney" type song she's had in a while.

 

Are you freaking kidding? :zoomzoom: What is wrong with you, you hate everything from the Blackout Era and we all know it's her best musical Era, it's honestly her peak in musical ability, just stop hating Blackout and learn to live with it because Blackout is the favorite album for Britney fans, and you will deal :tbh:

 

You can't just make a statement like that and present it as a fact. It's not my favorite album, in fact it's my least favorite. Do I think it's well produced, yes, but it just seems so trashy, and un-Britney like. The only think memorable from Blackout is "It's Britney Bitch",her vma performance (not in a good way) and Piece of Me. If you were to ask anyone who's not a fan they would think of her "going crazy" and shaving her head and being "fat" and "drugged up" during the vma's, but career wise, they may remember something from earlier in her career, something iconic.

 

Also I don't think Blackout is as personal as everyone thinks it is. And I would say BJ is more personal to her than than BO is.

 

Of course I hate Blackout era, because it was her worst, but I don't hate everyhting about it. I think Break the Ice is one of her best songs ever, and the video was actually great. Hot as Ice, Ooh Ooh Baby and Heaven on Earth are great as well. :mhm:

I think ITZ was her real peak, and even Circus era was better than Blackout musically, and in any other way. I just find offensive when people say Blackout is her best album, or Gimme More the best song or video, or even Get Naked, when she has so much more  amazing songs and videos, and albums, like OIDIA, BOMT, Stronger, Overprotected, Toxic, Slave, Circus, Womanizer, even Work Bitch :yaknow:

Exactly! Blackout isn't horrible, there are just way better songs to chose from.

So you're saying the album Britney put a lot of her input, time, and effort into is "trashy" and most "unlike Britney"? No, it's unlike the image Britney's team created as "Britney Spears" when she was 17. The issues surrounding the album have fuck all to do with the quality of the music itself. Don't let gp and media perception along with her personal issues at the time taint your opinion of the album. It also doesn't matter how many memorable moments there are from the era. Had Britney been in a better state, the album and era would have been arguably one of her best.

Blackout didn't get in the way of Blackout. Britney's struggles did. Had Gimme More had a better video and Britney been that perfect little pop star you all love, I'm sure a lot of fans would be singing a different tune right now. But she wasn't. Her flaws were out for everyone to see and her own fans can't even look past them to appreciate the good music she released.

The fact of the matter is, Britney had the most say in ITZ and BO's music and direction. And in my opinion, if you call one or both of them trashy, then you are calling Britney trashy, too.

Blackout is very Britney. It's not Mama Britney or Southern-belle Britney or Teenager Britney. But it is the Britney that has repeatedly said she loves sex, designed a lingerie line, endorsed female masturbation in a song (TOMH-she obviously loves that song), and executive produced the most influential pop album from the 2000s that is in the Hall of Fame for a reason.

Your opinion is your own. But to call anything Britney has done music-wise "trashy" is, to me, an insult to Britney. You may not like Blackout, but Britney obviously does/did.

Trashy was just the best word I could think of that could come close to describing it in a quick way. Also I really don't think she put as much time and effort into it as much as ITZ or even BJ, both of which she has professed she loves and is really proud of. And although ITZ is very mature and different than her first few, I still can listen to it knowing it's Britney, half of the songs on BO stylistically don't flow with her discography. I also don't think her personal life, at least during 2007, had anything to do with this album, it just coincidentally coincided with that time.

 

But although I love Britney and don't really look at her bad for this, but she grew up in Louisiana, she's not a glamorous person, what could be stereotypical reffered to as "white/trailer trash" "hillbilly"...etc. That's just how that population in that area of the country can be generalized from the glamorous lifestyles of Hollywood and New York. But that wouldn't be an insult to someone who grew up with that lifestyle that everyone else puts a negative connotation to.
