If anything GM gained relevance over time due to Tik Tok. It sold a mere 1,8m downloads in the US which is clearly weak for 2007 standards. This explains why it didn’t even make the YEC. Ans it’s really paradoxical to brag about Scream & Shout’s success when Britney’s only a feat. in the song that she didn’t even co-write. Gaga is a lead artist in Shallow and most of the songs in the OST. Plus she has the LEAD role in the movie which showcases the success of the project is alignated with her. Due to tiktok? Are u posting this from ur cellular diaper? My god ur posts in this thread have been nothing but pure history revisionism

Gorjesspazze9 Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 I don’t understand how anyone could say otherwise It’s Britney Spears, Princess of Pop for a reason. Very few artists in history will ever touch her peak.
holyground13 Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Yes, definitely. "Legend" is a very commonly used term but even when using the term in a more exclusive way, she is a legend. She's referenced a lot in pop culture and general life and encapsulated the 2000s era. Her music is also well remembered. The best song ever confirms it: "the Legendary Miss. Britney Spears and the unstoppable Danja"

I can’t believe some people here are talking about Britney commercial success with an xtina DP the jokes do write themselves Hide contents William had much bigger hits than Scream & Shout with the BEP, namely I Gotta Feeling and Boom Boom Pow. Whereas Scream & Shout is Britney’s biggest hit commercially - at least when it comes to digital units. And certainly, Moves Like Jagger is Maroon’’s 5 biggest major success. 1

I swear this word get thrown here anarchically Imagine putting Britney in the same bag as extremely talented people and REAL legends like Aretha,Michael,Tina,Whitney,Prince...... Some of you are so out of touch with reality And you’ve been fighting to change history for years now. Time to let it go babes xx Britney Spears is a pop music legend, one of the best selling recording artists of all time, an acclaimed performer and a symbol of resilience and strength. Most of you may not like her fanbase and that’s fair, but Britney Spears is still the mf princess of pop and y’all will treat her as such.

Not this frontloaded flop song. It’s only 2x platinum eligible after 12 years. It’s like bragging about S&M remix hitting #1 when it’s Gold. I can’t believe we’re talking about legend status with those stats. Edited October 15, 2023 by Alex Rover

Pay phone, girls like you are certainly much bigger known songs.

Britney was already a legend by 2004 She had 4 hits that year btw, which was 2011 She was still a force that deep in But her legendary status was achieved a long time before all that
Odette Violet Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Like yes? you have some of ATRL faves praising her and citing her as an inspiration. It's not about the records she sold but her impact and influence in 2000's pop culture is undeniable, she was the pop star of pop stars.

Valance Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 floptine fans have some nerve saying no because if britney isnt then what is xtina?? she always lived in britney's shadow and hasnt had success since 2007 her streams are HORRIBLE 2

They literally came up around the same time, and have completely different styles. OT: Yes, she is. 1
Breathe On Moi Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 It’s the way the xtina fans quickly tried to run in

Only a legend like Britney Spears could keep you fuming away in that basement, sis! OT: Yes. Britney Spears is a legend. We wouldn’t have K-pop, Jessica Simpson, Christina Aguilera, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Charli XCX, Taylor Swift from Red-Lover, etc. if Britney Spears didn’t exist. Fans of any those artists would have to be idiots to try to argue against her legacy. 5
Raspberries Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 She is a pop culture legend. Musically? No
jijie101 Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 9 hours ago, Trent W said: ASIB is a soundtrack, not a comeback album Its success was because of a movie and not because of the artist Not this tired narrative again. By that logic Britney was successful because of Max Martin Gaga was the lead role of the movie, wrote and sang all the songs except one or two, was the absolute star of the movie and got immense success and acclaim for her performance and music. If anything, it was more impressive than a normal studio album comeback because Gaga smashed in both movie and music. 1 1
jijie101 Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 9 hours ago, Trent W said: The main problem is that Gaga’s base credits ASIB as a comeback album when it wasn’t ASIB soundtrack was a success because the movie was was a remake. NGL gaga made a great job, but to credit the entire franchise as her comeback is insane Is almost like crediting Beyonce for Lion King’s success Girl, Gaga was the lead role of ASIB and the entire soundtrack was made and sang by her. How is that comparable to Lion King where Beyonce did absolutely nothing but shamelessly made an whole album to ride on the success only for it to flop into oblivion? ASIB was made like 4 times, only Barbra's version was as successful as Gaga's. When people think of ASIB, they think of Gaga, can't say the same for S&S or any Britney song since Circus. Many people don't even know faceless forgotten songs like I Wanna Go was by her 1 1
