The judge in Britney Spears' custody case has had harsh words for the pop star, but at least Spears is getting positive feedback in the court of musical opinion.
In fact, many reviewers have declared her new album, Blackout, the pop singer’s first album in four years, a major hit.

The AP’s music writer describes the club-y 12-song disc as, “not only a very good album, [but] it’s her best work ever - a triumph, with not a bad song to be found.”
The BBC went on to hail Spears’ song “Piece of Me” (with lyrics like: “I’m Miss American Dream since I was 17” and “Guess I can’t see no harm in working and being a mama”) as a “masterpiece.”

Even reviews that diss Spears’ can’t help but fawn a little. The Chicago Tribune’s critic writes, “Blackout is by far the most musically accomplished of Spears’ five studio albums” before slamming her as being “devoid of personality.”
“Gimme More,” the first single from Spears’ fifth album, is number 13 on this week's Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and Blackout is currently ranked the number one most downloaded album on iTunes.
