Gimme More
'it's Britney Bitch!'
one of the hottest singles of the year (after Rihanna's Umbrella of course) and a great comeback single for the legendary Ms. Britney Spears. The first track produced by Danjahandz. 'It's Britney Bitch' has become the best line used since Justin's 'I'm Bringing Sexyback'.
A+

Piece Of Me
'I'm Mrs. You Want a Piece Of Me, trying and pissing me off'
Britney throws shit back in the media's (and public's) face on this ultra electronic track produced by Bloodshy & Avant. Rumoured to be the second single, Britney shows attitude to the max and sings in a 'f**k u' laid back style manner.
A

Radar
'i get the tingle i wanna mingle'
An upbeat, fun, funky party track (also produced by Bloodshy & Avant) that sounds like it came straight from an Austin Powers film. The chorus is repeatitive and gets stuck in ur head but an overall fun track.
B+

Break The Ice
'It's been a while...i know i shouldn't have kept u waiting...but i'm here now!'
the production by Keri Hilson is great (especially towards the end of the track after the line 'I like this part') and it has been changed considerably from its original demo version. turn this one up loud cause its one of the album's club R&B style bangers.
A

Heaven On Earth
'your breath, your face, your head, your sweet, your tongue'
This is the album's 'Breathe On Me' only crapper. a real boring Euro-dance track that doesn't fit in with the style and mood of the rest of the album. and did i mention that its way too long at nearly 5 minutes.
C

Get Naked (I Got A Plan)
'i'm crazy as a motherf*cker!'
Danja really brings an electronic and futuristic Hip Pop style to the Blackout album and this track is no exception. Another killer track and definitely one of the album's highlights. The track sounds very Timbaland and would work extremely well as a single and go off in the clubs. You'll find yourself singing 'I got a plan, we can do just what you wanna baby'!
A+

Freakshow
'if they wanna look...we can give them a Freakshow'
This is another Bloodshy & Avant produced track and one of the newest tracks recorded for Blackout. The chorus gets a lil annoying at times but the awesome music makes up for it.
B

Toy Soldier
'this time I need a soldier, cause i'm sick of toy soldiers'
There is something about the music in this track that reminds me of Prince/Apollonia's Sex Shooter. Another one of the 4 tracks Bloodshy & Avant produced on Blackout and an electronic pop track with a slight rock feel to it complete with pounding marching drums. Turn it up cause its crazy!
A-

Hot As Ice
'i'm just a girl with the ability to drive a man crazy'
Best track on the album and possibly one of the best Britney tracks ever made. Produced (suprisingly) by T-Pain this track has been given a drastic makeover from it original demo format and for the better too. The track reeks the 60s and would be ridiculously cool to be released with a 'Hairspray' type music video! I see big hair, go-go dancers, crazy moves, the works!
A+

Ooh Ooh Baby
'i can feel you on my lips, i can feel you deep inside'
The first 10 seconds sounds like Madonna's 'Like It Or Not' and the verses are reminiscent of The Monkey's 'Happy Together'. This new remastered version contains a harder bassline and a rockier feel to it. A great mid-tempo track with a catchy chorus and great vocals from Britney.
B+

Perfect Lover
'Pull up to my bumper!'
Another awesome club track with sexy breathy vocals and this time produced by Keri Hilson. Extra sounds and beats have been added to the demo version (the 'pull up to my bumper' part and towards the end). Pump up the volume on this one as well!
A

Why Should I Be Sad
'Britney let's go!'
Pharrell Williams wrote and produced two tracks for Blackout: the leaked demo Sugarfall and this track (which was originally titled Stupid Things). It is obvious that the track was written about Kevin Federline and is the only slow/mid-tempo tracks on the album.
B-

OVERALL ALBUM RATING: A

Another great review of you :)
I haven't heard any songs besides "Gimme More" because I want to wait till I have the album in my hands, but I'm so exicted.
