Scream and Shout is AWFUL.

Basic lines and a sample from 2007.


Her new album I hope is a Blackout 2.0 with darker songs and less things on dance but more with romance such as Everytime.

Scream & Shout almost top 5!

It feels like they can release any **** and it would be a hit as long as it has her name on it... just no.

And the MV is atrocious, she looks like a man.

Like a man? lol she looks amazing

she looks much better than in Criminal for sure. that song is really catchy and one of the most played song in the club all around the sydney. I go out a lot every friday and saturday and Scream & shout never missed from any of the clubs I go. hahaha such an addictive and turn on

I also think that it really works as a club song!

The song is just so... uninspired. It just jumps on the bandwagon of popular songs, and doesn't do anything unique. I'm not a fan of her look in this video.

As far as her relationship is concerned, I'm sure she thought he was the one, but things just fell apart.

I only like "Gimmie More" sample in "Scream & Shout"

My favorite song is criminal by Britney Spare nowadays. she is one of the famous vocalist and has an attractive voice, which perfectly suits with the music and lyrics...the theme of the song is also good this song is described a beautiful feeling of love and never see or care anything.

Saaame.

Just listened to Scream & Shout in the club again, I love the "Britney, *****" sample! xD

she is in top 3 now. woow.

britney's getting that promo!

top 3 of what?

hot 100 billboard behind Thrift shop and Locked out of heaven

It's great to see Britney still on top 15 years later. The Namie Amuro of America/World. :D

What does everyone think?
I think so, Britney sounded like a British man more than anything. Nothing like her.

^why shouldn't it be Britney, that doesn't make any sense at all.

Eve took the comment back
LOL
Well... Whatever. I don't even listen to the song. Just once.

the remix is so horrible. i was so excited for the new remix and blahh so disappointed

Already a few days old but she's brunette again (from a Grammy after party)

love it

Love the first pic!

She looks like her mom.

She finally looks great.

"Her musical career boasts nearly 100 million albums sold worldwide"

Everyone seems to be saying differently
Some say 60 million
Britney herself says 105 million!!

Her first two albums alone sold around 45 million worldwide. In total I'd say she sold 80-85m+ albums and 100-105m for album shipments. :)

Anyways so excited for new music :luv2

I hope she releases a new album this year!!!

Nice, a new album!

I hate the fact that Will.i.am will be the executive producer for her 8th studio album...

mess already

My expectations for her new album are so low. Considering I really enjoyed Femme Fatalle and believe it is her best album with it's incredible production and attention to detail on arrangements, I knew I would be critical about it before I heard she was going in a more "urban" direction and working with hip-hop artists and Will.i.am producing. Now that I found this out, I am just looking forward to her 9th album...

Ew can he like not touch anything related to music anymore and dissappear like most recycled and lame artists from his era? Can't he just stay back in the 2000s and stop thinking that he is somehow relevant now? As if we don't have enough with Pitbull and all that **** from nowadays. #rantover

I'm preparing myself to be disappointed. Big Fat Bass and Scream and Shout were atrocious.

Atrocious is an understatement, I would say TRASH, he has nothing good to offer more than recycled boring repetitive generic stuff. Poor Britney.

Tbh I really really loved FEmme Fetale, even if her voice was almost 100% computer, that album made me love her again, but I have almost no hopes for this album. I hope that somehow it ends up being good though.

I enjoyed Femme Fatale, but considering that Big Fat Bass is the only track I hated, and I don't have words to describe the horrible mess Scream&Shout is (only good thing from that is the parody of the video with the Miserables) I'm a little worried for the new album.
But, I'm always positive! New album, yey!=D

He has good intentions, wanting to focus on Britney as a PERSON, but...

That is terrible news. Everything will.i.am touches is a mess. Why do people continue to work with him!?

Big Fat Bass and Scream & Shout are horrible though. Why do people not notice this? Does Britney not want to be successful? Oh well, I can only dream of another track like Trip to Your Heart.

Trip To Your Heart is a Bloodshy & Avant song correct? She should just get them to produce her entire album. Their work with with her is always amazing.

Although I really like Scream & Shout and love to dance to it in the club I agree that it's 120% trash (or even more) and I don't want one more song like S&S. But maybe we're lucky and the new album will surprise us all in a positive way. I mean, can it get worse than S&S? xD

She's tired..

According to the Britney newsletter I just got she's recording a new song for her kids which will be titled "Ooh La La" and it can be heard during the closing credits of "The Smurfs 2".


Here is another pic from 102.7 KIIS FMs Wango Tango at Los Angeles Britney hosted together with Ryan Seacrest:
She looks beautiful! Love her smile!^-^

And here a short video how Brit is announcing Bruno Mars:



Britney also appeard together with will.i.am at Google+ hangout, she's really cute there I think.^.^ She appears at 1:33:

She looks so stunning, she really seems to feel great right now!
So happy for her! <3 Can't wait for new music from this gorgeous lady!

The new song for The Smurfs movie leaked
http://hotmss.tumblr.com/post/506329...by-dont-be-shy

I'm gonna pretend the song never happened.

What song? It doesn't exist. Lol

If the album is as terrible as that I would pretend it was never released because a fan murdered will.i.am to prevent the atrocity from ever happening.

^ ooh la la, the smurf song

I was kidding. Lol

Dr. Luke produced this song. It doesn't matter because it's for a kids movie

Omg that is SO basic

hopefully the original version will be better

yeah, that song is really not that great. lol

Bha.
A song fitting for the film, I guess, and it's not THAT tremendous, but I don't want it anywhere near the new album, thanks.

Still better than Soda Pop... LOL No wait, I prefer Soda Pop much better, and I love Pokemon, the smurfs are disgusting, never liked them, gross.

Very funny the new song. Not anything special but at least she's not talking again about sex like she's done with the last three or maybe four albums.

I think I like it. xD It's fun. ^-^

Its been taken down everywhere I've looked :(

Not expecting much from the new song, especially considering what it's being used for. Something new and fresh from her would be cool though. Like Toxic/I'm a Slave 4 U/Every time/(I got that) BOOM BOOM days

Basically pre-crazy Britney.

Post crazy Britney has some good songs too!
Like most of blackout and umm, well some more I guess.

I think her post-breakdown albums are better than her pre-breakdown ones minus "In The Zone" (Blackout tops it though).

Post is better than pre.... though Circus is crap and ITZ is awesome

It doesn't really matter, since she's not all that involved in her music, less so now than before she went nuts. Her sanity isn't really relevant to the quality of her music.

In The Zone and Blackout were her peak in my opinion, but all her releases have been solid.

As long as she has her producers, nothing can go wrong.

Well she was most involved in ITZ and Blackout, and those two are her best.

Most being the keyword. Co-wrote one song and was one of many producers on Blackout. I love Britney to death, but let's be honest. She's not exactly in tight control of her career.

She really doesn't need anything more than Bloodshy & Avant to slay the charts

I think that she's much more involved/in control than some people (Namie for example). But lately that's not the case. Femme Fatale was just britney going into the studio and singing other people's ****. At least she didnt scam for writing credits like someone I know...

Britney has never been as involved as she could be. She's always been considered the epitome of manufactured pop music. While I do think people are harsh on her, I don't deny that there is some truth.

She has always been more famous for recognizing a hit while picking tracks than to be activelly envolved with producing her music... And that's fine, that's why people work as songwriters and at least she is not releasing crappy music with her name just for the sake of being more "artistic"... And her music actually IS superior compared to most of her competition's.

I love Britney precisely because of this: she doesn't push it. Her music always more or less represents her, but she would never go all artistic, 'cause it'd be ridicolous. And that's why her music works.

That duo produced one good, really successful song and everything else has been complete and utter ****. Talk about over-rated.

Its hard to say how many of her hits she picked and how much help she had. Also, I'm not upset that Britney isn't involved in her music, though. I don't want her to be more involved than she already is. I'm a fan because not only does she work with people who make great music for her, she seems like a sweet person. Also, Everytime was written by her, so if she did put her name on stuff to be "artistic" I don't think it would be crappy. But, again, I'm fine with her level of involvement.

Well, this is not me saying, it's people who worked with her... I don't know how easy is to say all the glory falls to her producers considering Katy Perry, Kesha, P!nk, Kelly Clarson and Christina are constantly hiring the same people without getting as good music.

Well, that's a little subjective. What makes Britney's music better? Her popularity could just be due to a dedicated fanbase, or perhaps the producers give first choice of "better" songs to Britney, as her people pay more.

Even if it IS subjective, there are 2 things that IMO are good signals that her material is superior: Better reaction from music critics AND they tend to become classics.

That is highly your opinion only (except for maybe Christina LOLOL)

Ke$ha, Katy Perry, P!nk, and Kelly Clarkson have been making very good music, even with the same producers (and Ke$ha worked with different people for Warrior so you can sit down).

It's really nothing but opinion. But please don't go around saying that they haven't been making ~good~ music. It's not trash and awful.

God knows how much I love Britney but Femme Fatale got old really fast. Katy Perry may have been working with the same people but her second album couldn't have been any more different than her first. You're also forgetting than all of those people you listed write their own songs and have much more creative control than Britney. Good music is rather subjective. I would go on and defend P!nk but her quiet success can do all the talking. Pitting them against each other is really sad.

^Katy Perry didn't had as much producers in common during her first album, the only one that ever produced something for Britney was Dr. Luke, and he did it after Katy (it seens he had some tracks for Blackout, but they weren't used). Teenage Dream had 5 (of 9) producers in common.

And even if it is a fact that all the other girls have way more writing credits than Britney, as I said before, I prefer better music over not as good music with songwriting credits (unless you buy them, like Godoncè <3)

I didn't say they aren't doing good music, so, maybe you should try some proper reading. =)

Max Martin has credits on half of Warrior tracks, Dr. Luke has credits on 10 of 12 tracks... 4 more producers of the album had worked with Britney, so, maybe you should also sit down while doing your proper reading. ;)

Why are those girls all working the same people? ~~ No wonder pop music sounds so uninspired lately.

Lmao at the insinuation of Katy Perry not making superior music to Britney. She shattered all kinds of records and broke new ground with her latest album.

Because those composers give what young people, aka their public, is supposed to like. I mean the upbeat, good-for-disco-remix kinda of stuff. Which is nice, but I'm hoping that with the success of singers like Lana del Rey and Adele, they understand trying different styles doesn't necessarly mean a flop.

^I know that, but it also makes it dificult to all those girls to make music that will be remembered... one thing I REALLY like about FF is how deep it goes into eletronic music for a popstar instead of being a watered down radio-friendly version.

If you believe Katy Perry ever broke any new ground with her music, you should be listening to anything that isn't playing on the disney radio for a change. She isn't doing anything unnusual even by pop music standarts

That's for sure. But I think things are slowly changing. Apart from Rihanna, in the last few years, pop music sells haven't been good at all. People like Justin Timberlake or Taylor Swift had huge success, and apart from whether they deserved it or not, they tried with different stuff from the usual up-beat songs.
Maybe that's enough of a sign we need more variety!

I do believe things are chancing lately... Beyoncé isn't sounding like anything on the radio since 4, even if I really dislike Gaga, BTW isn't a very safe pop album either, Rihanna is trying different stuff now and then and it seens like Britney's next album will be less dancefloor focused according to Will.I.Am

Lol, you're funny. So serious.

What I meant was that she was EVERYWHERE. I mean, you could not escape Katy Perry, her success was practically unmatched and there was much buzz surrounding her and everything she put out. She was the biggest star that year. She just kept on sky-rocketing. Pretty much every single she released has become a "classic" in the minds of pop radio today. Forgive me, I forgot how well received "Criminal" was on the charts. What a damn classic. Lol.

I haven't listened to Radio Disney in a long time, I wasn't aware they were streaming songs about male genitalia, losing virginity, drug/alcohol abuse, and penetration.

Pop radio is crap, same as almost everything in the charts, JB, 1D, Taylor Swift, you can't escape from those either, doesn't mean that they are any good imo.

Lmao, I wasn't insinuating that just because it's on pop radio and successful makes it GOOD. I never listen to the radio. I was pointing out a fault in the following argument that was presented:
So in no way has Britney's music had a more positive reaction than Katy's, and therefore you having stated that it is superior is pure blasphemy.

http://www.metacritic.com/person/katy-perry

;)

I will give Katy Perry the fact that she just peaked (unlike Britney who peaked between 1999 and 2004) and she got some strong hits on her favor with Teenage Dream (mainly California Gurls, Teenage Dream and Firework, the later 2 + I Kissed a Girl being her strongest).

On the period of time Katy Perry was active on the business, Britney had Womanizer, Circus, 3, Till the World Ends (her song with the biggest airplay ever), I Wanna Go and that crap with Will.I.Am that is not particulary good, but is pretty popular.

About Katy being everywhere during her peak, again, it's anything near Britney's peak...

It sounds the same as the "demo" but I think it's a grower.

Why are people arguing about Katy Perry in this thread? (She's ****)

Ooh La La is kinda basic meh

Just saw this comment but she was the executive producer of that album and picked all the songs. Her label basically had nothing to do with it.

This is why no one takes your opinion seriously tbh

Wow, I actually find the final version of Oh La la so much better than the demo! Nice!
But if another singer is gonna use "lala" in their titles I'll become dangerous. Let's stop this, please!

She mentioned that we can hear more new songs by the end of the year..

Britney Spears ‏@britneyspears 19h

Really excited 2 give u a taste of my new album... can't wait 2 share what I've been working on. Going to be my most personal album ever :)

^That sounds very promising and I believe her, because she seems to really got a hold on herself these days!

the pv for ooh lala is very funny indeed. she seems very happy and natural together with her boys :)
