114: Britney Spears - “Britney” Part 1: ‘I’m A Slave 4 U’ and Album Highlights

from Right Back At Ya! - The 2000s Pop Music Podcast

Is this thing on? Pop fans, we have been Anticipating this deep dive into one of Britney Spears’ most seminal albums: “Britney”. Arriving in 2001, ahead of her 20th birthday, our teen-pop sensation was growing up and is making sure the world is hearing what she has to say.  Join Joel and David as they dive into this iconic body of work over a two-part episode. This was a massive era for our Brit. Following two record-breaking albums, a massive first world tour and signing a multi-million dollar deal with Pepsi, she’s also making her film debut with “Crossroads”. Here in Part 1, we focus on the industry-shaking lead single ‘I’m A Slave 4 U’ - which saw Britney unapologetically owning her sexuality and flaunting a new sound. We get into the music video, legendary 2001 MTV VMAs performance, her new image and styling and so much more. True to our chronological style, we dive into our favourite album highlights before we get to the other singles in the next episode.  Britney’s DNA is all over this album, with her co-writing several tracks and collaborating with Pharrell and N.E.R.D., Max Martin, Darkchild, Justin Timberlake and Nile Rodgers. From ‘Anticipating’ to ‘Before The Goodbye’, ‘Lonely’, ‘Cinderella’ and more… we are truly feasting on this episode!
