Britney the celebrity eclipsed Britney the Pop star and she doesn’t seem to care enough to ensure her musical legacy stays alive nor does her label. There’s so much great material rotting in vaults and hard drives that should be dominating headlines vs. all her personal woes
Britney’s superstardom is the last of its kind. Come to think of it, I’ve never really known a popstar to dominate every single field. She was achieving diamond albums, scoring worldwide hits, topping Forbes, #1 on Google search, but also thriving as a merchandise by having an ultra successful fragrance, dolls, and other accessories. And every major artist at that time was being pushed by their labels to emulate her style and sound or become the alternative version of her.
In a way, she feels mythical
no music video, announced it 2 days before release via twitter, 1 tour performance, no radio, no label support... oh demetria imagine your potential with the right team.
i'm not even being funny at this point i feel like industry resources are almost advocating for her because they see she's being severely mistreated by her label and these news outlets are confused why she's not taking off with such good material.
