"It's Britney Bitch", the opening words on her 5th CD Blackout, released in the US on October 30th. As a life long Britney fan, of course I decided to buy this album, but the sound is not consistent with previous albums. The Britney I saw live in 4th grade for the tour of her debut album ...Baby One More Time had me mesmerized as she performed up beat music that sounded five years her senior. This new Britney is elementary, simple and bland. Not to be harsh, love the girl, but "Gimme More"--umph, piz zaz, feeling, and frankly, what more does she need? As a vocalist myself I know that your voice matures and strengthens with age but Britney's voice shows no growth or maturity, than again neither does her private life. Despite the inconsistency from previous albums, Blackout is worth a buy, or maybe a burn (sorry Brit), but for all you die hard Britney fans you be the judge. You can support her for the little girl or guy in you that remembers her dancing in the school gym or wrapped in a snake at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards. Check it out, or don't it's up to you. Let me know what you think. Jess
