Posted October 30, 20214 yr 20 years ago, Britney released her 3rd studio album... 'Britney'. This was the album that stripped away the cutesy, girl-next-door image and launched her FULL THROTTLE into a raunchier and sexier direction. Led by the ICONIC single 'I'm a Slave 4 U', Britney had everybody talking (again!) with this album. 01. I'm a Slave 4 U 02. Overprotected 03. Lonely 04. I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman 05. Boys 06. Anticipating 07. I Love Rock n Roll 08. Cinderella 09. Let Me Be 10. Bombastic Love 11. That's Where You Take Me 12. When I Found You 13. Before The Goodbye 14. What It's Like To Be Me Largely considered as her most underrated and under appreciated album, 'Britney' was another switch up in sound for her and really took her from superstar to mega star.

October 30, 20214 yr I love this album so much, it gives me so much nostalgia and it always makes me happy whenever I listen to it. So many iconic singles! I have such a soft spot for Anticipating, it is sooo cheesy but so good :P Now everyone go watch the DWAD tour :P
November 2, 20214 yr 20 years!!! Wowzers. This is probably one of her most underrated albums. I’m a slave 4 u and I’m not a girl, not yet a women were played so many times - definitely two of the songs I loved the most back then.
November 4, 20214 yr This album is so fckng underrated. Fact! Let Me Be, Lonely and Cinderella are highlights❤️ Edited November 4, 20214 yr by Nick F1
Wednesday at 15:563 days I really wish the singles campaign had been different for this album, i.e no Boys or I Love Rock & Roll, replacing with Cinderella and Anticipating (or even Before The Goodbye)
7 hours ago7 hr I think the original plan of doing two albums (one for Crossroads [or, at least, an EP, depending of how many songs they wanted to use] and another for Britney) would have been the best in my opinion. "I Love Rock n' Roll" makes no sense in the self-titled album, while it works perfectly for the film, for example.Also, it was a bold move to release "I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet A Woman" and "Overprotected" after "I'm A Slave 4 U", lol! 😆 I'm aware that the album was, sort of, labelled as the transition of Britney from bumblegum pop to a mature image, but it would have worked better to split them or release both of them before, not in between.
