Britney Spears - 2007 Blackout Album cover | |||||||||||||||
Blackout is the fifth studio album by American pop singer Britney Spears. It is scheduled for release on October 29, 2007 in the U.K. and October 30, 2007 in the U.S. and Canada. It is her first studio album of new material since In the Zone in 2003.
Album history: Originally slated to be released on November 13, 2007, the release date was moved up to October 30, 2007 due to numerous unauthorized online leaks of the songs in an attempt to combat song piracy, as well as the great success of the lead single. There was confusion as to the album's title prior to an official announcement. Spears' website ran a competition for fans to vote for the album's title, however none of those were used. Several sources, including People Magazine claimed "Pieces of Me" was the album's title as well as second single. The album was also put up for pre-sale on some online music merchant's sites under the "Piece of Me" title. On October 5, 2007, a message was posted on Spears's official website confirming that the title of the album is "Blackout". A spokesperson for Jive Records has said that the title of Britney’s fifth studio album, "Blackout", is about "blacking out negativity and embracing life." Internet blogger Perez Hilton is being sued by Zomba Label Group for posting at least ten unfinished or complete tracks on his website. This will be the first studio album Spears will not do any promotion for prior to the release besides her performance at that 2007 MTV Video Music Awards. However, Jive is promoting the album, having posted the commercial for the album, which is in rotation on television, on its official YouTube page. Two promotional pictures have been released as well. On October 14, 2007, Britney's friend Martin Hernandez posted the official commercial for Blackout on its site. A tour has yet to be officially announced, but new sources now say Spears is seeking dancers for her new video and a tour. Reception: Although the album has yet to be released, it has had some preview listens and it has been well-received by most of the media outlets that have reviewed it. Times Online was the first to review the album, giving it a 4 out of 5 star rating. Tracklisting: 1. "Gimme More" (Nate Hills, James Washington, Keri Hilson, Marcella Araica) - 4:11 2.
