Actually, Britney isn't loosing popularity, I agree with that but you do have to agree that she is loosing fans. Pop is fading, like I have stated oh so many times, and Britney is as well (not fast but she is). I honestly don't think Crossroads will do good nor give her a boost in sales, it has gotten very bad reviews (this to the person that said "Crossroads" got great reviews). I doubt "Boys" will be any special help either, it really isn't a good song, contrary to alot of Britney fans opinion. Britney is not the best selling solo artist of all time, she's not even close. Mariah and Madonna are the best selling female artists and there are many male solo artists that have surpassed them.

Yes,she is loosing some fans,but she also winning fans.
And that's also true that Pop is fading...like now and stuff. But do you really think they will let it fade just like that? Don't YOU worry about that,you think all those record labels will stop searching for new artists who will bring them some cash in?
During this and the next year there will be so many pop artists out...

.And MAYBE even some of the 'oldies' will release their NEW albums *winks*.
Of course she's Not even CLOSE,just wait for about 8-10 years and then you can speak about how close she is to'em.

Britney is just the one who survives the best since 99'.

The movie? Well...'They' didn't like Britneys OIDIA album also..but altrough people bought it,a lot.
And you know what,there will be a lot of people watching this movie..going to movies BUYING a ticket to see that movie. You know why? Couse it's Britney. Even the haters or the people who dont like her much will go and watch it couse of their Curiousity.
Just because It's Britney Spears,and wherever some1 hears that name,the whole attention will be to it.
That's what she has done to people. And there is no way she's fading,she's just trying to win respect from every1 right now. And she's doing really good.

)I agree with you Alexa. Britney certainly loose a lot of fans with her new hip hop music, but she also won a lot of new ones.

In my opinion, I think Britney isn't as popular as the period of "Oops!... I Did It Again". I'm sure that she'll continue to sell millions of albums (until she flops) but you're right, pop is fading that's why she HAS to continue to do songs like "I'm A Slave 4 U".
Even if it's "floping" like medias said (f!ck them).

I'm pretty sure that "CrossRoads" will flop because the artists who made movies flop. That's sad to say but that's true , isn't it?
We all know that Mariah Crazy did this. And llok at where she is now (Virgin drops her).
I really hope that it will not happen to Britney. And she wants that her movie must be a success, she must release a soundtrack with brand new tracks and to promote a lot. It's going to be hard.

Anyways Britney still the "queen of pop" and maybe she will become "queen of hip hop" (humm... bad idea

).

Why the hell are you talking about Briteny recording hip-hop???? Her new album does not contain hip-hop as far as I know....
Slave is electronic pop... so is boys, That's where you take me, before the Goddbye and When I found you....
Let me be is quite close to hip-hop ok, but it's not!
I'm not sure she's loosing so much fans... more and more people respect her like said Alexa, so she is in my view, gaining more fans slowly but surely.
It still remains that some early fans who loved her frist songs like BOT, Sometimes or Oops don't like "Britney" but can we call them fans?

I think that most of the users on this forum will agree with me when I say that "Britney" is by fdar her best and most powerful album...
It's too soon to declare "pop is fading away" or "Britney will flop sooner or later"
Back in early 2000, some dumbasses of psycholgists said that Britney's success was only due to her beauty and the fantasies she provoked on male teens... that her image of cute barbie doll with breasts would disappear in 2002 ot 2003 when she would be a young woman....

Britney is still here...

Actually pop overall is fading, not just boyband pop.

And I meant best selling artists overall, Mariah has sold alot of albums, she is the second best selling female artist of all time, second only to Madonna.

Gosh... you can't compare Madonna to Brtiney now... Mariah began in 1990 and Madonna in 1984 or 1982 (i'm not sure)!

Now look at Mariah... she is responsible for her failure... she never questionned herslef when she realized her fans disliked totally her rnb shitty tracks!
If she had stick to her great ballads and poppy songs of her debuts... she would still be the one!
Since Butterfly, she has completely messed up!
As I told yo ubefore, half of her songs on her recent albums are simply bad or bland.
Her attitude of "I'm Mariah, look at me, I'm the best, I'm the prettiest, I don't give a damn about the new generation of popstress, I'm theo ne to look at" simply lost her!
She signed a huge deal with Vrigin early last year because she wanted to be on the same label as Janet and be treated as Virgin n°1 artist... rather than Janet.
Now, Virgin drops her because of HER!

Madonna is only big because of the controversy she always provokes... not else!
Her new music is bland and can still be popular because she constantly changes her sound. Can we really speak of a proper Madonna style?
She has a beautiful voice (no doubt about it) but she doesn't make ballads anymore.
Her songs of the 80's were extremely good! WHY did she change that much???

You guys need to stop worrying. You're so negative it sucks. It's not like "Britney" debuted at #100 on the Charts or something. It's not like Slave didn't do to well... #27 is really good considering that people were adjusting to Britney's new sound. And so what if NAG is not doing good on TRL? You guys need to vote some more! Atleast it's still on the countdown. And so what if NAG doesn't debut on the Billboard (I don't think it will. Slow songs don't too well for Britney. Hasn't she realized that yet?

.)

Sorry, maybe I don't expressed myself well. I just think that Britney isn't as popular as before like I said.

But , I say it again , she still the queen of pop. She continues to sells many and many records and she's definatly the most popular woman of 1999-2002 with others artists like Madonna or Michael Jackson.

But she will stop pop a day , don't be blind. Pop is fading. People prefers r&b or rock as Linkin' Park (I hate them

they are mad

) !

Excuse me , "I'm A Slave 4 U" and "Boys" are hip hop song , that's just my opinion. Everyone has a one.

Well... I respect your opinions... but we probazbly don't have the same definition of hip-hop... that's all.
As far as I know, Britney declared herself that pop music was what she liked most, so she will not stop pop entirely, she will surely do more sophisitcated, more elaborated songs... and surely no more bot or oops-like songs.

She has to find the style that pleases her most... songs like Cinderella or Bombastic love still sound bublegom pop to some ears but those are already including more rocky sounds... well, those are not rock tracks of course but are already more complex than BOT.

The way she sings I love rnr shows her ability to make good rock/pop tracks... I would like that in the future.

The problem wit nowadays rock is that all those new bands are playing with fire... they mix rock with rap and rnb... and the result is awful!
I'm a fan of classic Hard rock (Alice Cooper, AC/DC, Rose Tattoo, Jackyl, Guns'n'roses...) so I hate those new bands.
Sooner or later they will disappear... don't worry.
Rnb totally lacks catcy tracks or originality, so... it will not last...

Britney will find her way through... for sure. I doubt she'll do rnb (God prevents her from doing rnb shit).
In my view, she can do what Jennifer Lopez does: pop with rnb touches, and some catchy latino songs, a bit of pop/dance.
Brit can do great music... and so far, she has shown us that she can sing great catchy tracks...

WOW I LOVE THAT PIC in your siggie before_britslave. She looks so hot!! (The pic on the cough)

MissPretty0ne · 02-09-2002, 10:27 AM

NO! Britney is not fading AT ALL! shes fading from the lil kids, and moving on to bigger and better, I mean her idle is madonna, and she wasnt always on top of things but Madonna is the queen of pop forever, now BRITNEY will take over, because thats who she wants to be like, and shes doing a find job of it, and if anyone says that shes fading they obviously havent seen the ratings that Britney gets when she goes on TV, the only reason her CD is doing as well, is because everyone can download it now! TRUST ME SHES NOT FADING!
