    So, 2007 and Britney Spears had a breakdown because of the paparazzi refusing to deem her a human being, and she recorded Blackout. Blackout is one of her most diverse and most insane albums of her entire career. It has no ballads, which always bring a Britney album down a level, and the lyrics definitely aren't the hit there.

    The production in this album is fascinating, and something Britney never did before. Almost every song is a smash. Combines futuristic and nostalgic sounds. Very unique pop record. Very fun listen to. The lyricism though is pretty generic, except of in songs like "Piece Of Me" which we never heard from her before.

    This album is the hands-down best pop album of the 2000s. The iconic line "It's Britney **** sets you in the mood for this album like nobody else has done it before. All 14 tracks from this song are the best songs you will ever hear. Even the singles are perfect. Gimme More, Piece Of Me & Break The Ice. Just a Chief's kiss!

This statement isn't to shade current pop stars or disregard their own contributions but the digestible one dimensional dance ready pop gems seem to be fewer and fewer. A forefather to the sweet ease of "teenage dream" or any release of the early tens. From the iconic "It's Britney **** " of "Gimme more" to the cool sultry seduction of break the ice. The while record is a highlight ,taking risks and veering into the oddest places to find gems such as "get back" &"why should I be sad"

    It can be seen as a hedonistic dissertation on the pressures of fame . From the cautionary justified paranoia ("Cameras are flashin' while we're dirty dancin' / They keep watchin', keep watchin'") or the pj harvey reminiscent "piece if me " delivered in a near spoken biographical manner. A poignant revelation on the reasons of her publicized break down&exploitation. The dubstep pulse of freak show revels in the prison of media. Flirting with the idea of fame being a power just aa much as it is a curse, the influence and worship that come with the paparazzi. "Hot as ice" steals the show in the high register Britney owning her destructive nuances and "perfect lover " sums up the competive vortex of consumerist fame(""Tick-tock / Tick-tock / Come and get me while I'm hot") which is a clock reference at the 11th song before the denouement of "why should i be sad?" At 12. Rounding off the standard edition. Britney spears best album album. Favourites: break the ice, gimme more,hot as ice, why should i be sad&piece of me    … Expand

    By far, one of the best albums of the early 2000's. This is pure pop excellence. Britney truly delivered vocal talent and pure emotion with this album. Gimme More is the perfect start for this album, serving pure sex and attitude. Radar and Break The Ice are other top songs from this fantastic album

    It is called the "Bible of Pop" for a reason. Britney Spears knows how to make dance and killer songs like those in Blackout. Like how can one not jam to the songs like Gimme More, Piece of Me, Break the Ice, or Heaven on Earth? One of the best albums I've ever listened, and the best album of Britney.

    If I could find a word to describe this album, that would be: psychedelic. Spears tried to give us another sexy album, but she couldn´t do it like in its predecessor "In The Zone". Maybe it´s the eletropop vibe mixed with a big amount of unnecessary autotune, that just doesn´t click. "Gimme More" is definitely the edge of this project, bringing us Britney at her best.

    Over a decade since its release, and yet the songs not only fail to sound outdated, but seem as though they could be released today and receive an overwhelmingly positive response. The music is timeless, and Britney at her best.

    Although this is probably the only CD wherein I fail to routinely skip any tracks; there are certainly stand-outs nevertheless:

    "Gimme More"
    "Break The Ice"
    "Heaven On Earth"
    "Ooh Ooh Baby," and
    bonus track "Get Back" shine even more brightly than the others.

    While there may not be a standout pop anthem a la "Baby One More Time," "Oops!...I Did It Again" or "Toxic," this album is by far Britney's most cohesive and mature material. It's not an album you purchase for the singles, but rather the experience of the record in its entirety.

    Sinceramente no se que le ven, es malo, y aunque tiene momentos de gloria, no me gusta casi, solo los singles y uno que otra cancion se salvan, no me gusto para nada

    It's Britney **** This is a great album that truly makes history in pop industry. It really express herself in that moment and adds an originality that few artists are capable of. Even though she abuses of the autotune, she still rules this industry.

    It's Britney **** that says it all... there's something magical about it that you listen to it in 2016 and it still sounds fresh and avant-guard, No other Britney album will reach the standards this one set!

    One of the worst albums of the year thus far. It shows absolutely no artistic growth, the lyrics are elementary, and the vocals are non-existent. All in all, a terrible album. Collapse

    Spears' sophomore album, which was critically one of her best, and featured the self-titled single that everyone and their mothers know. The album is headlined by such songs as Oops...I did it again, Stronger, and Lucky, with each one reaching the top 15 in the US Billboard 100 charts. Though those songs were popular, and I think they are catchy, the album does have its flaws.

(I can't get no) Satisfaction is a word-for-word cover of the original Rolling Stones song, and it just comes off as awful personally. Also, the last track on the album, Dear Diary, is very, very stupid, in my opinion. Buy it to relive some nostalgia, but be aware this is the early 2000's, and bubblegum pop is just as cheesy as you thought it was. Collapse… Expand

    Como em 1999, Novamente Britney revoluciona o Pop, desta vez ela trás o Electropop em uma forma sexual a la poli dance aonde todas as musicas te fazem querer dançar até o sol raiar, todas as musicas estão bem pessoais e bem profissional.

    I prefer to have emotion in my music, but seeing as this is Britney Spears, and that entails dance tracks that makes you want to hit the club . . . I will make an exception.

    Highlights (for me) are "Gimme More" ("It's Britney, B**ch), "Break the Ice" ("So you warming up yet?"), "Get Naked (I Got A Plan)" ("If ya like what ya see, end your curiosity"), "Freakshow" ("But if they wanna    I prefer to have emotion in my music, but seeing as this is Britney Spears, and that entails dance tracks that makes you want to hit the club . . .

    Simply put, her most bold, edgy and dark work yet, he employs a wide spectrum of glorious synths and goes from an electronic, processed vocoder effect on some songs, to showcasing her amazing vocals effortlessly on others, like Gimme More.

    Excellent album, Bible de la pop, cet album expérimental est un des meilleurs albums de Britney. Un mélange de sons et d'ambiance qui vous feront danser ou rêver.

    Point négatif: le choix du 1er single ainsi que les deux pistes qui clôturent l'album.

    One of the best and most innovative albums of all time. With hit songs like Gimme More and Piece Of Me, Ms. Spears proves that even at her lowest, she can still end up making some of the most exhilarating club bangerz.

    Depois de um período conturbado em sua carreira, Britney volta 4 anos depois do seu último lançamento, ”In The Zone”. Entre este período, Britney Spears simplesmente casou, separou, teve filhos e passou por um momento delicado em sua carreira: teve toda sua vida exposta e era constante flagrada se envolvendo em polêmicas e muita confusão. Spears nos traz muito mais que nós poderíamosDepois de um período conturbado em sua carreira, Britney volta 4 anos depois do seu último lançamento, ”In The Zone”. Entre este período, Britney Spears simplesmente casou, separou, teve filhos e passou por um momento delicado em sua carreira: teve toda sua vida exposta e era constante flagrada se envolvendo em polêmicas e muita confusão. Spears nos traz muito mais que nós poderíamos esperar para o seu retorno. Essencialmente com produção de Danja e Bloodshy & Avant, ”Blackout” traz o seu material mais maduro até então, um álbum coeso do começo ao fim; diferente do que vinha a acontecer em sua vida, ”Blackout” vem com mais acertos que erros.
    No fim dos anos 90, Britney Spears surgiu como um estouro teen, ao lado de seus amigos do ”Clube do Mickey”, Justin Timberlake de N*Sync e Christina Aguilera. A faixa ”Baby One MOre Time”, que traçou o topo dos Estados Unidos por 2 semanas e o seu disco homônimo vendeu mais 25 milhões de cópias ao redor do planeta, mas agora em 2007, Britney traz como carro chefe, ”Gimme More”, com o forte bordão ”It’s Britney **** uma faixa dance urbana que a distancia ainda mais a cantora do universo teen que a consagrou e aproxima Britney das divas pop Kylie Minogue e Madonna. Em ”Piece of Me”, Britney diz que é o sonho americano desde seus 17 anos e faz uma crítica aos paparazzis que a todo momento estão a clicando atrás de uma nova manchete nos tablóides e as pessoas que por este movito, julgam-lhe cosntantemente: ”Não vejo problema em trabalhar e ser mãe (…) vocês querem um pedaço de mim?”. Em ”Radar”, Britney tem o homem dos seus sonhos em sua mira, em ”Break The Ice”, melhor faixa do disco e em ”Get (Naked I Got A Plan)”, Spears também tem o desejo de conquistar e entrar em sintonia com seu parceiro (”Eu nunca me senti assim, você deixou o meu coração bater feito um sintetizador” / ”Nós somos adultos agora, eu faço você descongelar… Vamos pegar fogo.” – canta Britney em ”Break The Ice”). ”Heaven on Earth” nos traz direto ao ótimo ”Confessions on A Dance Floor” de Madonna, com uma inspiração na era disco de Donna Summer e Giorgio Moroder.A única faixa assinada por Britney Spears, ”Freakshow”, Britney simplesmente diz que quer sacodir o bumbum na pista de dança e deixar as garotas morrendo de inveja, a faixa traz uma novidade conhecida hoje como ”dubstep”, recurso eletrônico que seria ainda mais ampliado em popularidade em sua faixa número 1 de 2011, ”Hold It Against Me” e pelo multi-Grammy winner Skrillex. O álbum passa pelas não tão ótimas ”Toy Soldier”, ”Hot As Ice”, ”Ooh Ooh Baby” e melhora em ”Perfect Lover” e ”Why Should I Be Sad”, a última assinada por Pharrell Williams e The Neptunes, que nos remete a ótima ”Boys” de seu disco anterior.
    Não é a toa que ”Blackout” é um dos discos mais influentes dos últimos anos, em um mundo ainda pre-Lady Gaga, Britney Spears representa o pop dos anos 2000 com muita ousadia e se reafirma como uma mulher agora mãe, talvez mais madura e eternamente como a princesa do pop.    … Expand

    Um grande álbum. Não é à toa que ele é considerado o melhor da carreira de Britney Spears e uma Bíblia do Pop. Muito bem produzido e com músicas conceituais, ele, se fosse lançado hoje, seria atual. Muito bom. :)

    Blackout, considerado o melhor álbum de Britney pela maioria dos fãs, é sim, o melhor álbum dela, e talvez um dos melhores álbuns pop da década de 2000. É um CD que revolucionou a música pop, principalmente a faixa "Freakshow", que "inventou" o dubstep, e se ele não existisse, a música pop não seria como ela é hoje. Todas as faixas são boas, não tem como escolher uma melhor.

    After a three year hiatus amid a mental breakdown, Britney Spears proved that she was still reigning pop royalty. Each track has its own unique sound, propelled by inferior production. By far her most adventurous work to date!

    Funny thing is that Britney recorded her (by far) best album while she was at her worst. Blackout is a really nice album and has made history in many cultures. It has those beats all over, but they're by no means generic and still really dance-able today. You hit the right spot, Ms. spears!

    Baby One More Time is her best album, just because is her debut album but this is definitely her most personal album, Britney Jean is just a waste of time... This is a truly comeback.

    The biggest failure of these songs, and the most confusing thing about this album, are the melodies.

    Poetry it's not. Still, there is something delightfully escapist about Blackout, a perfectly serviceable dance album abundant in the kind of bouncy electro elements that buttressed her hottest hits.

    For every hot, of-the-moment track, though, there's something like the nonsensical 'Hot As Ice,' which was co-penned by the thoroughly talentless T-Pain and might have worked two albums ago but just sounds retrograde here.
