What Happened With Britney Spears' "Glory"?

[@dancedoctor1032]

She has achieved legend status, she doesn't have to work as hard anymore. As much as I would like some more bops, her songs are already timeless

[@Dr.SyedSaifAbbasNaqvi]

It doesn't matter how legend you are. Its never an alternative to not work hard. Such a stupid statement to make. The success and failure is what doesn't matter but saying she doesn't need to work hard is getting satisfied with mediocrity. Consider David Bowie who is already a legend before we were born. But his last album surpassed all our previous expectations. And made him timeless.

As a lifelong Britney fan here’s my two cents: - Femme Fatale was the last album where she was a viable charting solo artist. - Britney Jean was rushed and released to push ticket sales for Vegas. No focus on the music itself. - Glory was to makeup for the backlash they received from fans with BJ. It wasn’t a huge success but it was a step in the right direction to rebuild Britney’s artistry in the public eye. For what’s to come: I think Britney still enjoys putting out music/performing but, since becoming a mother, will always put family first and she doesn’t take it as seriously as before. She’s a legend now and has nothing left to prove. So you either accept that and continue being a fan or you move on to a new girl. That’s my opinion

Yes. Britney’s VMA return was set up for failure. She followed a mini-Beyoncé concert which was fire! Britney is a great performer nonetheless!!

Make Me was different and interesting but the video was so bad. In today's world visual media is so important. It was like they decided to do a cut rate version of a Britney Spears video and people were turned off. She lost all the momentum she'd gained.

[@garrycohen7763]

[@PianoHits]

Also Britneys core fanbase when she was big was around 15-20 years ago and as the record industry knows it's common as teens mature to adults they dont consume as much music due to adult life which is why they know to promote artist that current teens listen to. Generally a lot of popteen artist from 90s-2000s do well selling tickets now because it's a night of nostalgia back to the good times of being young but that audience isn't chasing a new britney song they want the stuff that takes them back to the good old days. I'm 31 and I love staying relevant with music but I don't have any friends my age that stay current with music. :)

[@popmusiclover1000]

That’s so true! My sister who is 34 and is 10 years older than me was a huge Britney Spears fan when she was a teenager and she was the one who made me a fan when I was a kid and now that she has her own family she barely listens to music.

[@realdavidjones1623]

Not really, her fan base were mainly kids, and her singles discography has always underperformed, she has only had like 4 to 6 big songs which are oops I did it again, baby one more time, gimme more, toxic and 3 but most others flopped or did fairly decent and it would take months of promo for them to chart plus her album sales kept declining and she only sold impressive numbers when cd's were calculated to be at its peak. Even back then she wqant as huge as her small fan base say she was. She had mainly a kids fan base which was why parents didn't like her for how r rates she was in her songs. She has flopped on so many levels so she should just not release anymore because no one cares and she isnt a star anymore

Its a fact that her album sakes kept declining after cd's calculated peak of 1998 to 2001, now she barely sells 150k first week and can't score a number 1, top 5, top 10, top 15 or top 20 singles, sge has never grossed up to 150 million touring wise, talk less 200 or 250 million, isnt among top 10 most awarded artist of all time which is surprising for the named pRinCeSs oF pOP (flop) by her small fan base, she also can't sing and is a stiff dancer

The main reason „Glory“ underperformed is because it was released by a female pop artist over the age of 30. Radio has always and most likely will always ignore this particular group and unfortunately radio airplay still matters a lot.

[@popdissected4400]

Very good point!

[@Jordan-yv9mr]

I wonder how Madonna did it. When she debuted she was already around 27. She dominated the 90s while in her 30s. Then had her confessions moment at 40. It’s crazy

[@lilahbellie5501]

I don't agree. Taylor is now 30 and is still an in-demand artist. Katy Perry likewise. In Britney's case it's her TEAM.

[@britneyspearsstan]

Lilah Bellie did you see how Katy’s last album and her new singles did? 💀

[@Jordan-yv9mr]

Lilah Bellie katy perry is definitely not in demand. She was in demand from 2008-2014. She has been tanking lately, unfortunately. Taylor Swift is most likely going to be another Madonna story. But a vast majority of the time, when a female artist joins the 30 club their career drastically declines in sales, popularity etc. in just 2018-19 taylor Swift is one of the only female artist who is 30 that topped the charts and stayed there. Vs the many over 30 (or 29)male artists who have, The Weeknd, Bruno Mars, jay z, drake, etc. The most popular female artists this year are all in their teens or 20s.

[@ownyourcrazy8734]

P!nk, in an interview, said she got "The Talk" from RCA records when she hit her mid 30's informing her not to expect the radio support she was used to anymore citing radio programmers leaning toward music for younger audiences. That was around the time "Beautiful Trauma" was released. Australia has generally been a huge market for P!nk (with 3 successive albums scoring multi-platinum sales. "Hurts 2B Human" has barely gone Gold and is proving to be her least successful album. I don't believe that audiences would abandon an artist so quickly. But these is becoming a common recurrence among many artists, especially female artists. It's as though someone is predetermining an artists sell by date and giving in accordingly. If this same standard (policy) had been applied in the 1980's, Tina Turner would never have stood a chance with 1984 comeback album "Private Dancer". Had the same took place in the 1990's, Cher would never have had a global number 1 with believe. Call me a conspiracy theorist if you must, but I'm wondering if record labels aren't dropping their expectations and cutting 'n' running instead of backing proven talent beyond that preconceived sell by date for fear of smaller profits. In the past, successive poor showings on the music charts, like Britney's, would result in artists losing a record labels support and their recording contacts. I know their is a long held practice of holding artists to label deals despite poor showings on the charts in premeditated effort to kill off interest from any othef labels should an artist be released from thrir contracts early. This very thing happened to Tori Amos who found herself having to wait out her contract with Atlantic. Ultimately, Tori Amos fulfilled her contractual obligations and managed to secure a deal with Sony Music in the early 2000's which saw a rejuvenation in her creative output. Tori Amos has changed labels again since, and now releases under her own copyright trademark (through Universal, to whom she had been directly signed after Sony), citing a preference to be free of the corporate machine and create the work she is inspired to create within her own time frame. Though an artist ought to be willing to commit to promoting their own work, if a record label's marketing and promotional teams are non-committal than artists are wasting their time and talent, pure and simple. What is needed is a change in culture within the music and greater entertainment industry. Afterall, what should matter most is the quality of the song and not the age of the artist.

[@charliequinn_]

It’s funny cause I recently just discovered your channel, and I was going to suggest you doing a video discussing Britney Spears’ “Glory”. What an incredible Pop album, one of the best Pop albums in most recent years. An experimental, cohesive body of work that thought outside the Pop music box for Britney, pushing her into new genres, styles AND was the most involved she’s been allowed to work on an album since “In The Zone”. It’s my favourite release of 2016, besides Ariana Grande’s “Dangerous Woman”. This album was packed full of potential hit singles that sadly never came to be. The one’s that did become singles however were poorly promoted, therefore leading to the entire album being sadly overlooked by the general public. “Change Your Mind”, “Do You Wanna Come Over?”, “Love Me Down” etc. Her management team really missed the mark with this one. “Glory” deserved so much better. The “Glory” era was great in the sense that we saw Britney regain much of the stage presence and confidence that was seen throughout the early years of her career. You could tell she was very proud of this album and this was clearly reflected by her being more open, happy and excited to be promoting in her interviews. Also her dancing had vastly improved since the Femme Fatale days, her energy was on point. “Britney Jean” was a hot mess. An album containing some of the best song lyrics Britney has ever written, but was overshadowed by will.i.am and his horrid production. Britney had very little control on certain aspects of the record, production being one of them. It didn’t match up with the personal touch that Britney herself wanted to take with the album. I do hope that whenever Britney decides to make her return with B10, that she’ll take what she learned from making “Glory” and continue to push herself musically. And if you’re like me and you’ve been keeping up with the #FreeBritney movement and everything that she’s been going through this past year, I’m expecting some good material. P.S: Can we just take a moment to appreciate the Japanese bonus track, “Mood Ring”?!

She had her Glory days in the late 90s early 00s. Britney was never the same after the events of 2007. She clearly doesn't want to do it anymore, but unfortunately for her as long as she is profitable, there are to many people making money off her for her to be able to just walk away. The past few years are gradually tarnishing her legend status. I will forever be grateful to of been able to experience Britney as a early teenager at the peak of her career. It's not a case of #FreeBritney it's more a case of just let her rest and do what she wants. None of us know the extent of her mental health issues but for her dad to still be in control of any important decisions 12 years later speaks volumes, and don't give me that bs they bribe the judge etc. She has a voice, and she's a strong woman. I'd rather Britney vanished and be happy for the rest of her life than keep on doing what she does for the sake of it. It's her job at the end of the day but after 20+ years she's been there done that and has absolutely nothing left to prove.

Watching this after reading the Britney book and man. She says Glory was the first album where she was really passionate about the music in a long time, and her label just didn't let her change her setlists to include more songs.

Let’s also remember Britney Jean was the first album when she went to RCA (due to JIVE being sold) it was her first album with the new label, a time she was exploring sounds and was just going with the flow. With GLORY it was her 2nd and she took more control due to the backlash of Britney Jean, it’s a matter of time for Britney to warm up to anything “new” I’m sure she will do much more for B10. Britney was testing the waters with the new label, she slowly made her way back unto live TV stages, she conquered and got her confidence back. For B10 i know in my heart she will slay harder than ever becuz she made her return and is confident again. The media and the world really ruined her in every way but she still slays...

[@nicelyfaithful]

Glory is in my opinion Britney's most underrated and close to best work she's ever released. It is unfortunate it didn't get the promo or attention I feel it deserved but it is what it is. Britney had to re-find herself, and she's slowly but surely finding her peace of mind. If that means sticking with Vegas, and spending more time with the kids...FANTASTIC!!! To repeat several comments, in the era of streaming....the whole landscape has drastically changed.

[@IvanRandomness]

You failed to bring up Pretty Girls with Iggy, this was the supposed to lead single from Glory but changed when the song underperformed and removed the track from the album. I think this is important to recognize

[@nam_1018]

I don't know much about Glory, but for Britney Jean, Britney was planning to create Blackout 2.0, but RCA hired will.i.am to work on it so it appears to be very different from what Britney had in mind. Britney had only performed 3 songs live (Work Bitch, Perfume and Alien), and fans say that she didn't like the final work so she only sang her personal and favorite songs, and pretended the rest did not exist.

[@popdissected4400]

Ahh, interesting! Thank you for sharing!

[@wtf_drew]

While Femme Fatale was a true success back in 2011 it was definitely a product of it’s time and sounded a bit dated past 2014. It’s still iconic and one of her best albums. Glory still holds strong after 4+ years though and it’s definitely top tier for me, does anybody feel the same? I really feel she gave it her all on that album and had some of her best vocals but it’s always overlooked.

[@alvarod9288]

I feel like the main reasons why glory underperformed was because her public image at that point was non existent since she was locked in vegas doing shows for nearly 3 years, regular people who are not fans or didn't attend to her vegas shows hadn't heard her name in years, and they probably lost some interest since britney jean was really bad for a lot of people... all of that + 0 promotions and poor single choices can't make an album succeed

Such a great video. Thank you for your kind words about her and her work. I am Team Britney since the beginning and I must say that even though Glory did not chart well, I LOVE that album. Britney Jean was Vegas promo album in my opinion and some of the rumors say that Britney was helped by a background singer to complete the songs... She has nothing to prove anymore. I do hope she will be happy now, enjoying life, her family and record the type of music she wants and she likes.

Thank you for watching! I try to be as respectful as possible to the art and the artist! And you're right, she's proven herself as a staple of pop music, and all I want for her is to be happy ♥️

[@alinalightlove]

I love love ❤️ your channel. I was pleasantly surprised with Glory “What you Need” being my fav. I am a huge Britney fan. Britney’s strength is stage performance. I noticed her current choreographers are not catering to her jazz/hip hop/funk dance roots. Also America having a Trap explosion could be why is not being pushed. However I strongly felt Domination would have been more hip hop based due to clips of the rehearsal being leaked.

You’re awesome, thanks for keeping the quality coming. Britney will just never be the same. She’s never going to hit the heights she was once at. She just doesn’t have the talent of her contemporaries. She is ICONIC. And will always have a place in pop culture. But shes not a powerhouse in anyway, shape or form.

[@popdissected4400]

Thank you so much! And yes, even if she isn't 'on top' anymore, she is literally so iconic and has proven herself.

[@fabriziosalaro5984]

I think BJ ruined Britney's image. She didn't sang most of the tracks and the team needed something to promote the residency show, so they used backup vocalists to finish some tracks or even sing entire ones, and then over processed all the vocals to make them more similar. The glitch in Alien, the leaked vocal which prove the album version of most songs is mainly sang by someone else, the lack of promotion really damaged Britney. I love Glory, and it was born in a period where Jamie Spears was forced by his health to temporally step down as a conservator. She was able to make decision regarding her music she didn't done in the past nine years. She also co-wrote some tracks. In 2016 she looked much better than previous years and smiled a lot more.

Can u do her self titled album 'Britney' off why it got low radio airplay

[@ef5993]

TheArianator Life After I’m A Slave 4 U, Britney was banned from radio due to the controversy of the song and radio didn’t play her music again until 2003 (MATM with Madonna(the lead single)) was her comeback to radio with the In The Zone album she came back but ITZ only sold 10M because she didn’t promote ‘Toxic’ as the lead single. If Toxic was lead I’m sure it would have outsold the ‘Britney’ album.

9:03 Britney's media-induced breakdown was not in 2009, it was in 2007

[@popdissected4400]

Thank you for bringing it up! I added this in my pinned comment on the couple of things I incorrectly stated.

[@Cuppy88]

The "Leave Britney Alone!" era where she flashed her cooch to the paparazzi while hanging out with Paris Hilton and shaved her head bald was most definitely 2007. Blackout was supposed to be her big return but was overshadowed by all of the media hoopla. 2009 was in-between the Circus era and before Femme Fatale. She had already made a comeback from her breakdown and was back on the charts with Womanizer and Circus by this point. 2009 was a non event year for Britney aside from releasing a new Greatest Hits album to mark her 10th anniversary as an artist, The Singles Collection. I'm not sure what that other poster was talking about.

Perfume by SiA and Britney is undoubtably the most underrated song in the english language....

[@HollyNicoleXD]

She is a legend and this is only a theory, however going back to 2009 i feel like going to see her is like going to sea world. Money is going to the people that force her to do stuff ....She has no freedom to be her and no freedom in general and it’s painful. It’s like so many of her melt downs are her trying to do things on her own terms and they won’t let her. They put her in a box and won’t let her make what she wants to make. Idk if other Britney fans get that vibe but I do and it’s painful. She just need to be happy, be able to live and find inspiration when SHE finds it not when her dad or manager do.
