    "Work B**ch" was at first a disaster for me, then I liked it as a "club" song. Then I heard "Perfume" and thought "maybe she'll be more personal this time". But no, Sia happened to write the whole thing. Anyway, then the album came up with all those poorly produced (will.i.am's fault, maybe?)

Most of the others are just unnecessary and not personal at all, at least not to her. So yes, I wanted her to go back a few years, even if she can only go to 2008, because I think Circus is 1000x better. "Britney Jean" is weak and NOT worthy of a "princess" of pop. Expand

Britney write 9 of 10 tracks of the album, even so she need help of an army of songwriters, maybe because she need someone to make her own work a little less mediocre. The album begins with Alien, song that brings to the audience an influence of Madonna's Ray Of Light, but the similarity ends there, cause Britney don't show the same knowledge as Madonna. In Britney's hit 3 she sings about a threesome, but now she seems do not like to share her love with another person, in her new single Perfume, and use metaphors that brings to our minds habits that animals do, like when she sing that she hopes that the another person smells her perfume, evocating the image of a dog pissing in his place to mark his own territory.
    Katy Perry write Passenger and clearly we can see that Britney took the song and change nothing, but actually it's not a surprise in her career. This time Britney let Dr Luke behind e brought with her Will I Am and David Guetta to the album but maybe was more interesting to her don't change her team. Britney that already saw the worst part of this industry and was able to put more personality in her amazing album of 2007, blackout, let was with the impression that her is always a passenger, unlike Janet Jackson that once said the her last name was Control.
    Britney Jean doesn't sound like Britney Spears and miss american dream seems like a nightmare queen.

    Britney Spears is an invented 'singer'. His latest album, Britney Jean, is further proof that the owners of record entrepreneurs think we're IDIOTS.

    It's the same old thing, which is weird since Britney said it would be a personal album, and ended up showing nothing but strong beats, edited voice and generic letters. Since 'Work to 'Don't Cry' is all soulless, uninteresting and uneventful. Fans will like (I think), but no new fan will arise from this work.

But I think this is one of the worst albums in her career ever since 2006's "Blackout" or her not-so-stellar self-titled album in 2001. So much for her Vegas routine. I was not too happy with the name of the album she's been hiding, the song choices she made were less pop-driven and handling too much pressure on the lack of production. No guest appearances on TV, no promotional campaigns, no nothing. I think the Queen of Pop just lost her balance and took a few steps backwards from where she has gone from the goddess of Total Request Live to selling millions of records and now...this? I only can imagine how this album doesn't have enough charisma as any pop album in 2013. Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and Selena Gomez have dominated the charts very well this year. Britney, however, was on the verge of retiring and I think her fans are not too pleased on this album. So as disappointing as Lady GaGa's new album is concerned, Britney Jean is a big mess for Britney Spears. One of the worst new albums and name titles of 2013. Expand

    If you haven't listened to it yet, don't even bother. Britney's vocals are, well, non-existent. She sounds like she was under duress while she was recording this album. Its a reluctant effort, not for individuals who are in search of a Pop record that really stands out from the rest [in a positive light]. The high levels of mediocrity are beyond shocking. Its trash.

    Songs like perfume, don't cry e passenger have their own shine, mainly because of Britney's vocals, that are clean and clear, but it seems like it can be sing for any singer in this industry, this songs don't have anything personal, anything interesting, are just songs well produced. The electronic dance songs are so dated and poor, c' mon, the avalanche of auto tune that we have in It Should Be Easy make the music lyrics become intelligible, and when you have a song with poor lyrics, the last thing you need is that people don't understand what your singing.
    In the end, if we take some songs of Britney Jean, Femme Fatale and Circus, we can make ONE good cd.

Los mejores momentos del álbum son en canciones como la mid-tempo ''Alien'' o la sobreproducida ''Passenger'', y aún así se sienten insípidas. Sin duda Britney Jean es el resultado de dos cosas, una agenda muy agitada y cero ganas de continuar con tu carrera, no fue una buena decisión grabar un álbum mientras planeas una residencia, y mucho menos dejarlo a mano de will.i.am quien se adueñó totalmente del proyecto. Britney Spears necesita un tiempo de descanso, es claro.

Lead single, Work **** packs a punch with its pounding beat and Britney doing her fun British accent. Next comes a Sia-penned ballad called Perfume, which is one of Britney's best ballads of all time. It Should Be Easy is awful with its dated production and featuring Executive Producer of the album, WillIAM. Tik Tik Boom is repetitive and not of Britney's normal standard - it should never have made the final cut. Body Ache has some fizz, but nothing spectacular. Til It's Gone is forgettable - another WillIAM mess. Passenger is a decent song, but should Britney really be recording Katy Perry's rejects? Surely she deserves better than that. A duet with her sister on Chillin' With You is one of the worst songs Britney has ever recorded. Don't Cry sounds like it belongs on a flop girl band's album. Brighest Morning Star is too sentimental and reminds me of the terrible song, My Baby, she recorded for the Circus album. Hold On Tight is boring and sounds like another Katy Perry reject. Now That I Found You is another mistake - a Eurovision-type song that probably wouldn't even win. A Perfume remix adds nothing to the album.

    Britney made a huge mistake spending so much time on her Vegas residency whilst recording this album in a rush and not caring about the low quality. WillIAM's production is - on the whole - bad. The song choices were not great. Maybe 3 or 4 tracks deserved to make the final cut - the rest is trash.

    Aunque ame a Britney debo decir que este album es el peor que ha podido sacar en toda su carrera, lo unico que me gusto de Britney Jean fueron sus singles (Perfume y Work B*tch) desde ahi el album no tiene nada bueno para ofrecer.

    This album sucks. It has a short tracklist but it's still full of filler and try-hard songs! She should have stayed retired.

    Britney Jean is meeh. However, the honest song writing is a cool thing but its musicality lacks traction.

    Undoubtedly the weakest work by Spears yet,from the lyricism to the production and awkward vocal performances, BRITNEY JEAN is an overall mess.

    uma bomba eletrônica de péssima qualidade e mal produzida. Uma vergonha pra música pop, miss Britney se aposente logo.

    Simplemente PÉSIMO. El peor disco de Britney hasta ahora. Work **** es el peor de sus singles. Los visuales son terriblemente básicos. TERRIBLE de principio a fin!

    The best thing on this albums are the lyrics. Britney said that this is her most personal albums and the lyrics show us that.
    But the rest is bad. I can't believe that Britney Spears released this album. The typical will.i.am sound doesn't sound good on her, the album has glitches, and that mess with MM. Without a dount, Britney's worst album to the date.

    As if it wasn´t bad enough to here a full album not being able to recognize the singer's voice, this is just a set of forgetable edm tracks, without a sense of meaning. It´s a big disappointment, especially after the powerful "Femme Fatale".

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After the dance inspired fun that was 'Femme Fatale', Britney released an album that was generally recognised as one of her weakest. In hindsight, there is alot to like on this album. 'Work B' is an addictive, throbbing banger with Spears speaking in a british accent. It was and still is weird and wonderful. Other tracks that stand out are 'Alien', 'Body Ache' and 'Tik Tik Boom', albiet a very questionable rap from T. I. Most other tracks are happy to stay in a certain lane that was similar to all music of that time. The production wasn't half pushing the envelope as her previous, nor her vocals (which have been speculated) didn't seem totally her. With mostly half hearted tracks and not much in lyrical content. It was definitely not a personal album, but there are fun moments to be had here. Expand

    The alien, blank dead-eyedness of Britney Jean is frightening, because it feels like it’s all will.i.am trusts Britney with.

    Play this album from start to finish and it’s hard not to feel that at the core of its cheaply gratifying genealogy is nothing but misery.

    Backed up by masters of electronica David Guetta, Diplo and Swedish House Mafia’s Sebastian Ingrosso, they all make sure to drop a storm of ugly, trite and utterly soulless EDM breakdowns and dubstep drops whenever they can.
