Album Review: Britney Spears - Femme Fatale


Britney Spears releases her seventh studio album Femme Fatale that delivers fatal blow of electro pop tracks - it could be, IMHO, her best record released yet. It's everything a Britney fan could ask for. And for those who aren't fans, they will most likely become fans if they like catchy electro dance music.


Femme Fatale is an electro-pop masterpiece that melds pop, techno, and even dubstep together. Every song has fantastic production, creative lyrics, and a star quality that only Britney can pull off. This album is one you will want to listen to whenever and wherever, in the car, at the club, at home, at parties. Trust me, I have done so. I have also realised that she could have done this album without her doing any actual thing on it. The tracks sound so mechanical - in a very good way - and I thought the producers just needed a sampling of her voice from the previously recorded ones and they can just make a track out of after whipping in some webs of synths and electropop sounds.


Another question I got in my head is: Is Femme Fatale better than Blackout? That is up for you to judge. Femme Fatale is definitely sex-driven, just like Blackout. Every song on this album is different and unique sounding, but there are definitely a lot of similarities to Blackout. Femme Fatale is more like the Blackout 2.0, it's definitely far from the sound of Circus.
