We are calling on RCA Records and Sony Music Entertainment to officially remove the 2013 album Britney Jean from all streaming platforms, while preserving "Work Bitch," "Don't Cry," and "Perfume" exclusively as standalone singles.

For over two decades, Britney Spears has been the blueprint for modern pop music. Her discography contains some of the most innovative, cohesive, and landscape-shifting production in music history, from the electronic masterclass of Blackout to the mature experimentation of In the Zone. Her name on an album cover has always stood for unmatched star power and pop perfection.

However, there is one glaring, dark stain on her legacy:

Britney Jean (2013) 🤢

Marketed to the public as her "most personal album yet," Britney Jean was never a piece of art. Instead, it was a rushed corporate product manufactured by a predatory machine. Rushed into production to fuel the hype for her impending Las Vegas residency, the album was recorded at a time when Britney was completely burnt out, overworked, and trapped under a restrictive system that stripped away her autonomy. In her 2023 memoir The Woman in Me, Britney details the recording process of almost all her iconic studio albums with one glaring exception:

Britney Jean (2013) 🤮

Because she was pushed beyond her limits, the corporate machine did the unthinkable by relying heavily on a background singer, Myah Marie Langston, to blend with, match, and outright take over Britney's lead vocals across multiple tracks. This means that a massive portion of the tracks on Britney Spears’ eighth studio album feature another vocalist rather than Britney herself.

Putting an artist’s name and face on an album where they aren't even singing their own lead vocals is a massive violation of artistic integrity. It is the definition of a corporate scam. Outside of the high-energy club staple "Work Bitch" and the ballad melodies of "Don’t Cry" and "Perfume," the rest of the album consists of lifeless fillers like "Alien" that completely lack the raw, genuine emotion of actual classics like "Everytime." While "Work Bitch" is rumored to feature heavy background vocal blending, it would be unrealistic to ask RCA to delete such a massive global hit entirely.

The fans have spent years analyzing the dark history of her career, and it is time to take a stand for her actual artistry. Britney Jean does not represent Britney Spears. It represents a period of intense exploitation, and keeping it on streaming platforms and in stores only allows a multi-billion-dollar corporate machine to continue profiting off a project that devalues her voice.

We love Britney. We respect her legacy. And because we respect her, we want this album gone.

Our Requests:

1. Scrub Britney Jean: Remove the full album from Spotify, Apple Music, and all retailers.

2. Save the Three Core Tracks: Re-release "Work Bitch," "Don’t Cry," and "Perfume" as standalone digital singles so the world can enjoy those tracks without funding the exploitation tied to the rest of the record.

Britney has survived so much, and her discography is otherwise near perfection. Knowing that the system controlling her for over a decade actively silenced her voice during this era makes this matter urgent. Do not let them continue to profit off the silencing of an icon.
