Huh. Interesting defition of "wonderful" there.

So everybody admits that this supposed pop singer can't sing (that even her minute chirps are Pro-Tooled up the arse and buried in computer effects), can't dance, can't write, can't perform live or even in a much-edited enviroment of a music video. She's not conventionally beautiful or even clean enough to be attractive these days, has lost custody of her kids, is too drugged up to do any PR and too dumb to even realize she has an album coming out under her name. Not to be all "Get off my lawn" - because I recognize a place for manufactured pop in the industry - but why are we supposed to find it "wonderful" rather than disturbing when a record company spends millions on someone with absolutely nothing to offer in the way of talent, performing ability or even basic human decency? Christ, at least Milli Vanilli put energy into promo appearances and being the public face for the music they didn't sing. With the decline of the industry and the departure of major artists from the labels, I fail to see what the bright side of this situation is. What would be "wonderful" is if, after this release, Jive cut ties from this fiasco. They could easily spend their Britney budget on developing ten new artists and bands that might actually be talented and grateful for the opportunity.

The good reviews probably don't mean the album is actually good; just that it's not shockingly bad, as it could have been. With a performer like her, do reviews even matter? All that's expected of her are vaguely dance-able tunes, and she has enough fans and gawkers to keep her afloat. The tour should be an interesting affair, if there is one...

Not a bad song? Fuck, they've all been bad songs. It really depends more on whether you enjoy listening to complete shit.

"Blackout," her first studio album in four years, is not only a very good album, it's her best work ever _ a triumph, with not a bad song to be found on the 12 tracks.
