Britney
From Academic Kids
Template:Album infobox
Britney is the third album from American pop music singer Britney Spears . It was released on November 6 , 2001 and debuted within the top 5 in the UK and #1 on both the Canadian and Billboard 200 album charts; this #1 debut on the Billboard made her the only female aritst in SoundScan history to have her first three albums debut at #1. Although the album has sold almost 5 million copies (RIAA 4x platinum) in the US and over 11 million copies worldwide, it was less successful than Spears' first two albums, ...Baby One More Time and Oops!... I Did It Again . Britney is most notable for Spears' own increasingly prominent role in the songwriting as well as a greater focus on her own sexuality. The record boasts aid from producers such as The Neptunes , Rodney Jerkins , Max Martin and others. Singles off the album include "I'm A Slave 4 U ", "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman ", "Overprotected ", "Boys " and a cover of Joan Jett 's "I Love Rock 'N Roll ".
Two of the tracks off the album, "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" and "I Love Rock 'N Roll" were featured in Spears' 2002 movie, Crossroads .
