Ever since Britney's split with boy toy Justin Timberlake it seems nothing has gone her way (divorce, custody and her unsuccessful album Blackout...). But she's back with a new album Circus.
Circus is a mix of many styles mixed into one. From the dance oriented first single "Womanizer" to the ballad oriented "Out from Under". Circus is a mixed bag of tricks from top-notch producers and a new revitalized Britney.
The best moments of the album come from the ballad "Out from Under" which is her best ballad since "Everytime". The best track is "If U Seek Amy". The song is an up-beat robotized track which could have belonged on her previous album Blackout. Another surprise on the album is the comeback of the outstanding track "Radar".
But Circus doesn't come with it's flaws. "My Baby" is the weakest track on the album. It's a track which Britney comes off as melodramatic and frankly whiny.
Overall this album is a good effort from Britney. It may not be as good as her previous album Blackout but, it's still pretty darn good.
Rating: 76/100 (Best Tracks: If U Seek Amy and Radar)
