Heir To The Throne (La Femme Fatale Publishing)

Sabi]", which features the most pointless guest rap since 3OH!

By the time we get to the closing track "Criminal" -- wherein Spears notes that she's in love with a man who's "a killer just for fun-fun-fun" -- Femme 's fatal flaw soon becomes obvious: Spears' worldview is completely self-contained. While parts of Blackout could be read as postcards from within her breakdown, and Circus was somewhat a dissection of the media-blitz aftermath starting with the title , Femme Fatale is just a big dumb club album.

Her lyrics are about dancing and partying and flirting and falling in love and in one case, about falling in love with a big fat bass While Spears' ardent fans could at least hold up tracks like "Womanizer" to prove that she was capable of at least some lyrical depth, they are given practically no ammunition here.

It's not even that the lyrics are inane: Good lyrics or no, we still know Femme Fatale will be a blockbuster regardless, which is perhaps why there still remains room for Spears to try a few different things musically, and when Spears' producers are given room to stretch, they manage to pull of a few pop music miracles. We've never heard her sing as forward as she does on "Trouble For Me" -- which features a pre-chorus made entirely out of melting, wheezing synths -- nor achieve the trance-like bliss that she does on the canyon-filling "Trip to Your Heart" despite its remedial high-school poetry lyrics.

Even that aforementioned breakdown on "Hold It Against Me" remains as musically brutal as anything you'll find on VEVO today, which, coming from a major label pop starlet, is quite the accomplishment. Yet if you come into Femme Fatale looking for only one genuine takeaway, then look no further: On this jaw-dropping track, the percussion really rises beyond the persistent sound of rushed handclaps and a fizzy snare hit -- drum machines are pretty much dropped from the equation altogether. Then, Bloodshy proceeds to send Spears' voice through enough distorters, filters, and blenders to make T-Pain's head spin, going so far as to use nothing but the sound of her breath as the beat one moment, then later stretching out the final syllable of the word "speaker" to the point where it digitizes and threatens to pop right off the track.

It's crazy effect, and, somehow, the resulting song which features the most minimal of piano chords sounds like it would fit perfectly on Robyn's Body Talk. Well into her 30s, silent film star Mary Pickford was the waif-iest waif in film history, and the number of convincing variations she wrung on this theme is remarkable.
