Britney Spears – Blackout - 2007 Pop - Black Vinyl - Sealed LP

 

 

''Blackout soundtracked a precarious era of Spears’ life—where she sought emancipation from her marriage, her management, and the relentless media. When you line all these albums up, it’s clear now, fifteen years since its release, that Blackout is the soundtrack of the unvarnished freedom she sought for herself in between two controlling periods of her career. Three, Blackout possesses an aura of surprising authenticity that the rest of Spears’ albums have always lacked. Unlike her previous studio releases, Blackout had a theme, told a story, and committed to that journey from beginning to end. It was also the first time a Britney Spears album felt like it reflected where her life was at that moment…and for good reason.''

 

On “Piece Of Me,” the only Blackout song that directly addressed her shocking headlines, Spears combined all of what makes Blackout a standout in her discography—swagger, sex and celebrity—into one sleek and pounding robot orgy-sounding song that served as the second single off the album.''
