Britney (Digital Deluxe Version)

Playlist • 15 tracks(s)

Britney is the third studio album by American singer Britney Spears. It was released on October 31, 2001, by Jive Records. Looking to transition from the teen pop styles of her first two studio albums ...Baby One More Time and Oops!... I Did It Again, Spears began to embrace a significantly more mature sound with Britney. The record incorporates genres of pop and R&B with influences of EDM and occasionally dips into disco, hip hop, rock, and electronica. Its lyrical themes address the subjects such as coming of age, adulthood, control, and sexuality. Contributions to its production came from a variety of collaborators, including Max Martin and Rami Yacoub. Spears herself assumed a more prominent role in the album's development, co-writing six of its tracks. The album correlated with Spears's feature film Crossroads, in which three tracks from the album were featured. Britney received generally mixed reviews from music critics, who complimented Spears' musical progression but criticized her increasingly provocative image. From Wikipedia (
