In the six years since her debut CD ...Baby One More Time set Billboard charts a-trembling, Britney Spears has pried open pop music's rusty cage and sprinkled her sex-kittenish fairy dust around like long-overdue disinfectant. She has also arguably done more for the neglected navel than Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce have done for the derriere. But despite her well-earned reputation for boldness (to which releasing a greatest-hits package after just four discs can only add), Britney calls it quits at making claims about her vocal talent. And that works in her favor. Because while My Prerogative is an exciting and even at times superb record, its merits lie almost exclusively in each track's production. From the Abba-esque choruses of her earliest hits ("...Baby One More Time," "Crazy") to the twitching, pulsed-up grooves of 2001's "I'm a Slave 4 U" to the technified bleeps and swizzles of 2003's self-skewering "Outrageous," the pop princess proves she's been largely content to let her in-studio performances take a back seat to the rhythm. With beats as consistently good as the ones she's managed to recruit, though, it's hard to blame her. "Toxic" and "Me Against the Music" mash trance and hip-hop into the mix, and the three previously unreleased joints don't shrink from sliding headfirst into new sound, either. The Bobby Brown cover and title track stomps and bomps to a bared-teeth backdrop, and "Do Somethin'" creates such dancefloor urgency it should come with a siren. "I've Just Begun (Having My Fun)" treads two steps shy of crossing the Britney-bred boundary between sexy and raunchy, but fans will hope it's autobiographical anyway. For detractors the song--and the disc as a whole--should signal a long wait till the party's over. --Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews

Good Collection...With Plenty Of New Material
Most people when they hear about the greatest hits album immediatly say that they already have the CDs with the hits on them, but they don't realize that this CD includes many songs that aren't on the albums:

1. My Prerogative
9. (You Drive Me) Crazy (The Stop Remix!)
10. Boys (The Co-ed Remix)
12. Overprotected (The Darkchild Remix) - Radio Edit
16. I've Just Begun (Having My Fun)
17. Do Somethin'
--------------------
Bonus Disc
1. Toxic (Armand Van Helden Remix Edit)
2. Everytime (Hi-Bias Radio Remix)
3. Breathe On Me (Jacques Lu Cont Mix)
4. Outrageous (Junkie's XL's Dancehall Mix)
5. Chris Cox Megamix

That's about a CD's worth of new material. The 2 CDs come in a custom silver embossed fold out case which is very cool looking. Having all the hits on one CD is more convenient anyways.

Actually the review before the fool below was right
The laughable comments by the joker who thinks they are right and anyone who disagrees is wrong and thinks they know it all, but off course they don't
Let's look at there so called "facts"

"5 mediocre Platinum selling albums, all are worse than before"

Really? That might be your view but clearly not the view of everyone. Britney Spears has now lasted 6 years, I bet you gave her a year or two back in 1999! So who are you to say her music getting worse? To you maybe, to people who like it, no.

"A fluke of a number one single"

The single sold over a million copies in the USA alone, it also topped 1 million in sales in the UK and was the biggest selling debut single of the 20th century in that Country. Since that time she has scored another 19 hit singles, 8 of which have been Number 1 in various countries. There is a world outside the United States you know!

"A Grammy(big deal, Starland Vocal Band won a Grammy yet no one remembers those a****les) "

You seem too. I do too. Also I didn't see the Starland Vocal Band achieve 4 number 1 albums in America, or 5 top 20 albums in Britain, neither have they, to my knowledge logged 60 million album sales. So to compare the success of Britney Spears to that of the Starland Vocal Band is completely stupid, but then again so has your whole argument.

"Fans who worshipped her then abandoned her after her erratic behaviour started taking shape after Justa Tinkertoy left her!"

Is that why she's still topping charts all over the world, because she has no fans?


"Fame(everybody has that, including ME!)"

Well you're probably the worlds most famous bulls*****r!

"No beauty"

Who says? You? Is that why people constantly vote for her as the sexiest woman in the world?

"Homewrecker"

She isn't actually if you look at the whole facts.


"Drug addict"#

You must be on something yourself to come up with all this nonsense!


"No Respect from anyone"

She has it from me, so you're wrong there!

"And a baby on the way which I bet she will ***carry!"

You really are evil.

This record is great. The people here saying Britney's career hasn't been going long enough to have a "Greatest Hits" out are missing the point entirely. This album is not based on amount of time you have been around, it's what it says on the cover, it's a "Greatest Hits," therefore it's about hit singles being collected onto an album and the question is has Britney had enough hit's for a Greatest Hit's album? The question is not how long has she been around for?!. The answer to the real question, with her scoring 19 hit singles to date is, yes.

Britney burst onto the music scene with "Baby One More Time" in 1999, a song which i'm sure anyone who had a radio or TV has heard many times. "Sometimes", "Oops I did it again", "Stronger", "Lucky", "Everytime", "Toxic", etc, etc, etc all followed. Now Britney is regarded by many to be the best pop star on the planet.

Back in 1999, people though Britney would soon fade, now in 2005, 6 years later, the same people are still saying that. She has already gone much further than they first predicted, so who to say, as long as the hit's keep coming, she won't last even longer yet.

This is a totally justified release as is truly a collection of great hit's from a hugely popular performer. It merits it's description as Britney Spears Greatest Hit's!

Popular Superstar
This album is packed with popular songs that have made Britney Spears into the superstar she is today.

Despite her critics, Britney goes from strength to strength as her career rolls on and on. The proof is in the pudding. The fact her non-fans have to go out of their way and shout from the rooftops trying to convince themselves she's a fading star proves her star is still burning brightly.

She began recording for Jive records in 1998 and her debut single "Baby One more time" not only topped the America charts, nor did it only reach #1 the world over, it also became the best selling single the label ever had. Soon after her debut album became the best selling album they ever had and then she went on to become officially the all-time #1 selling artist on the Jive label.

All Five of her albums ("Britney," "Baby, One More Time," "Oops, I did it again," "In The Zone" and "Greatest Hit's") reached the top on Jive's weekly selling catalogue chart and four of them also went all the way to #1 in the national charts too.

This album is a summary of her hit singles. Highlights include "Toxic," "Everytime" and "Outrageous."
