Break the IceBRITNEY SPEARS
Producer(s): Nate "Danja" Hills
Genre: POP
Label: Jive
While Britney Spears' media circus continues to stifle the one-time ruling pop princess, she keeps delivering hits, albeit with help from the best producers and writers her fortune can buy—but who cares. Third "Blackout" single "Break the Ice" might have been a better comeback than "Gimme More," as Spears apologizes for her hiatus in moving headlines over music, with opening line, "I shouldn't have kept you waiting, but I'm here now." The uptempo track oozes catchy electro-bass thumping beats, layered breathy vocals and sometimes trying-too-hard-to-be sexy whispering, especially in the chorus of "Hot, hot, hot, ahhhh." A backdrop of operatic cries and orchestral sounds are added for good measure. Chalk up another club-frenzied insta-hit.
