One is simply enthralled by the tempo and stupor –like vocals by the pop diva, Britney Spears who yet again proves her mettle in this fine album. Though the mysterious, spine-chilling electro foot tapping songs of last year’s ‘Blackout’ were in a superlative plane in comparison to ‘Circus’, her sixth album, Spears has delivered some saucy dawdling jams in genuine studio time.

Circus is a focused solid piece of work which seems to get into your skin with every hearing. The album effectively upholds the magnetism and sheer glam quotient of ‘Gimme More’, with songs that capture the hypnotizing effect of the sleek, wild image of Spears which is bound to be the sell-out point for ‘Circus’.

‘If You Seek Amy’ is a song par excellence with magnificent pop intensity that is bound to set one gyrating to its foot-tapping tunes. Britney’s sensual, soft tone wonderfully depicts the eager, restless and covert mood of the song. Check out the buffoonish, frivolous delivery of lines that aptly showcase the ‘Circus’ spirit. The song’s seemingly infectious nature will leave you humming the infamous profanity before you realize what you’ve been doing.

The ‘Out From Under’ drawn from the Bratz movie soundtrack has a gloomy, simplistic feel where Britney stand outs with her singing prowess. ‘Womanizer’- the lead number has a distinctly captivating feel to it and an instant crowd puller. Britney reveals her ostentatious, raunchy best in ‘Kill the Lights’ song. ‘Unusual You’ delivers some fantastic ambience with electro-dance air.

Worth a listen are the fabulous tracks like ‘Mannequin’, ‘Shattered Glass’ and the master Danja’s spectacular produce ‘Kill the Lights’ which simply steals the show. ‘My Baby’ –a song dedicated to her tots, ‘Lace and Leather’ and ‘MMM Papi’ seem run of the mill tracks. Danja yet again shows his genuine skills in his produced ‘Blur’ that has a bizarre feel to it.

‘Circus’ produced by Max Martin-Dr Luke production team bears quite a lot of semblance to Britney’s past hits which were also produced by the same team. ‘Circus’ is truly Britney’s rise from the ashes, as she delivers wonderful club-bangers and her trademark dear-old Britney pop way.

Eminem, the rapper par excellence who shot to fame with the score, real Slim Shady, is cited to give top notch performance in this year’s MTV Movie Awards function which will be held on the 31st May. He would be performing numbers from his latest album ‘Relapse’. The current score ‘We made you’ is doing the rounds on MTV for more than a week now. Eminem has been at the pivotal spot on the Australian singles chart since mid-May.

Eminem with his trademark histrionics of tartly and more so frequent unequivocal rhymes , has lived to his infamous reputation in his current single, with bountiful sequences of pot shots at celebrities and briny verses to add insult to injury. His unpleasant scenes in which he raps about humping with Sarah Palin, leaves a bitter after taste. Eminem is seen shooting out at famous celebs like Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears to site a few. The video has been banned in the US due to its explicit content. Although, when questioned about this trait he is quick to covertly and sarcastically say that most of them were not deliberate. He is even seen taking verbal pot shots at Mariah Carey and her hubby in the video.

Many who have heard the lyrics of his latest release prefer his old rap tunes and many are of the view point that he has got stuck into drudgery of repetitiveness and quite a few seem to not like the weird accent he has put up in major part of the score. After having claimed top notch in UK and seems all set to seek peak position in the Billboard charts too with ‘Relapse’. His premier release post the 2004 record, ‘retirement’, which claimed critical sales. Despite some unruly reviews, ‘Relapse’ is still selling like hot cakes with the number touching more than seven lakh copies in just the first week.

Eminem is known to write lyrics in his scores about women he couldn’t have or those who broke his heart. The rapper recently been seen with weird looking mask as he spanned NYC or the histrionic swine flu  mask he sported in France leaves one wondering where the kid’s going from here next.
