Editorial Review:
Where Britney Spears's first two albums hewed to the early-'60s formula of one strong single plus a stack of filler--a fair bit of which ended up on the radio anyway--her third justifies itself as a full-length listen. Led by the single "I'm a Slave 4 U," a Neptunes-helmed piece of electrofunk that promises she'll do anything you want as long as it's dancing, the album continues through superior versions of Spears's poses. Calculated frustration with the adult world? Calculated independence? Sheer celebration? Check, check, and check: "Overprotected," "Let Me Be," and a cover of "I Love Rock & Roll" that brings to mind its bubblegum roots. Even without the joyous disco tribute of "Anticipating" and the not-icky ballad "I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman" providing symbolic respite from the rest of this machine-tooled music, Britney is one of the most human discs of the current teen-pop boom. If it spins off the deserved string of radio/video smashes, it may even buy this superstar a second 15 minutes. --Rickey Wright
Britney Reviews:
Britney! 
2009-11-01 - This one has to be one of the best Britney albums! Circus is my favorite but this one is probably my second favorite.
Britney Spears's Official Britney Review 
2009-05-16 - Heyy! It's me again. Today I will review the album "Britney".
I'm A Slave 4 U- I like this one a lot. It is her third best hit. It is very danceable and shows a more personal side of her, by the lyrics which clearly state not to treat her like a little girl, you got it Britney. 10/10
Overprotected- I like this one as well, especially in the beginning when she talks. This one is about not telling her what to do and lay back- don't watch her like a hawk. Very fun, danceable. 10/10
Lonely- This one is a little more rock-edgy. Not like shredding guitars or anthing like that but, more rockish for her. 7/10
I'm Not A Girl Not Yet A Woman- I like this one too. This one was from her debut movie, "Crossroads". It recived great airplay. It's a nice ballad about her growing up. A great slow-dance song. 9/10
Boys- This one is about how a girl needs a boyfriend to be in control. To my opinion, that is not true. Very danceable. Dance to it a a club. 8/10
Anticipating- This song has a very happy, little girl, bubblegum-cokkie cutter beat. She uses her soft voice even though it's an upbeat song. It kinda makes me feel uncomfortable, though. LOL. 6/10
I Love Rock 'N' Roll- OMG!!! Britney Spears butchered this song. Joan Jett yells, and screams, and plays shredding guitar solos in this song. Britney Spears adds rap, and the guitar sounds electrified, and the drums are slowed down. THIS SONG SUCKS!!! You will be laughing like I did when I heard the song. DON'T LISTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3/10
Cinderella- I like the beat to this one. It's kinda boring though. 5/10
Let Me Be- The guitar in the beginning is cool. This song is kinda mean, but has a happy beat. I think it's nice. Not danceable. 8/10
Bombastic Love- The beginning and the chorus are cool, but the verses don't fit in. 7/10
That's Where You Take Me- She uses her real voice in this one, and it sounds nice. One of my favorites. This one is actually a single, but recieved airplay in foreign countries only. Boo hoo. 10/10
What It's Like To Be Me- She's just complaining about how hard it is to be her, oh yeah, it's hard to be a million-aire. And her ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake does beat-box while she sings, which in my opinion is lame. 6/10

I think they pushed her too fast 
2008-12-06 - This album is ok but I think they tried to put it together too fast you can tell
brittney still num. 1 
2008-07-06 - all of her cds are the best I cant pick a fave but brit is great. this cd rocks though im going 2 collect every single 1.
Quite Arguably Her Best Record 
2008-04-30 - I'm not sure this is really a 5 star record. But seeing that it's probably the best of her lot, I'll be generous. I didn't much care for the opener 'Slave 4 U.' But 'OverProtected' has a catchy edge. 'I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman' has a pleasant sound to it. I don't like 'Boys.' 'Anticipating' has a nice pleasant sound. the cover of 'I Love Rock and Roll' has a good sound. 'Cinderella' has a GREAT rocky edge. 'Let Me Be' is a nice gentle song. 'Bombastic Love' is different, but still good. 'That's Where You Take Me' is listenable. 'What It's Like To Be Me' has a notable energy, and ends the record on a high note.
Of all Britney's records, I feel this has the strongest energy as well as the best consistency.
