The Cristina Santiago PodcastCelebrity Spotlight | Britney Spears ft. Elizabeth Wildes (PART 2)“At the time Blackout dropped, it sounded like it came from the future—a dystopian and warped future, but nevertheless interesting. Pop radio had remained steeped in the pop-R&B influences that had also driven Spears’ music until then: The top songs of the year were Beyoncé’s “Irreplaceable” and Rihanna’s “Umbrella,” both beautifully sung grooves. Blackout offered crunchy beats that sounded like they were coming from a broken computer, classic dubstep wobbler effects, and Spears’ voice intentionally distorted in every way possible. Whether Spears could sing didn’t matter; her producers played her like an instrument.”

The Cristina Santiago PodcastCelebrity Spotlight | Britney Spears ft. Elizabeth Wildes (PART I)Happy International Women's Day! And, Happy Women's History Month!
We owe Britney Spears more than we know. As today’s It-girls usher in a resurgence of late 90’s and Y2K trends, it’s best to remember that Britney did it first. Giving credit where credit’s due, Spears served as a catalyst for the majority of these throwback style references—she drew the map. There’s much to be said of the early-aughts tastemaker, but throughout the height of her immense fame, the pop princess spearheaded many of the nostalgic fashions we covet today.
