Britney Spears was having one of the toughest times in her career and personal life while she produced and recorded her fifth studio album, "Blackout," but it ended up being one of her most beloved albums.
Perhaps it was this breakthrough that fellow artist Kesha related to the most while listening to the album because the "Tik Tok" singer praised it on her social media accounts, "Queen wasn't f**king around [with] this one," she wrote with a screenshot of the album on Spotify.
Fans could not help but laud Kesha for supporting Spears and "Blackout," as it is a fan-favorite release; "Queen praising another queen's best album."
"That's how you should support each other," another added.
"She better stan her best album."
"No lies were told. Britney was not playing on 'Blackout.'"
Britney Spears's 'Blackout' Album
According to reports, Spears was working on "Blackout" while she was pregnant; she expressed her feelings and emotions regarding the heavy scrutiny she experienced from the media during that time, which is how she came up with the chart-topping singles "Gimme More" and "Piece of Me."
While Spears never really said that "Blackout" is her favorite album to date, she did reveal how liberating it felt to record and produce it. "I felt so much freedom."
"Working with amazing producers, I got to play. I loved that no one was overthinking things and that I got to say what I liked and didn't like. I knew exactly what I wanted, and I loved so much of what was offered to me."
Despite the singles receiving major success, the "Oops I Did It Again" singer revealed that she did not particularly like the "Gimme More" music video.
"I don't like it at all - it's so tacky," Spears wrote in her memoir "The Woman in Me." "It looks like we only spent three thousand dollars to shoot it. Even though it was bad, it worked for what it was."
