Work (BEEP!) did not work on the radio... but it stuck in the fandom for some reason 

I think the radio edit would have worked better with a dog bark sound effect replacing "*****!" I think the GP missed some of the cheekiness of the song. Dog barks would've let them in on the fun.

Something fun, a bit generic and just controversial enough to get picked up by radio then become a hit.

Am I the only one who thinks Make Me is such a boring a$$ song?!

Agreed. No offense to anybody, I just never clicked with it. There's songs I'll love right off the bat, some that are "growers" and that's one song that never grew on me. It's not the shitty video coloring my view. It still would've been a boring song to me whether the controversial video was released as the main video.

I dunno... aint nobody streaming M.I.L.F Money on Youtube cos it's a quality song. It has 4 times the views of Make Me which is a million times a better song. An eye-grabbing music videos matters, but it doesn't have the be controversial as such, just squeeze every last drop out of a schtick.

 

It's been viewed way more but she has lots of famous, social media friendly people in her video, the Kardashians, Chrissy Teigen, and other models are actually a big part of the clicks in my opinion. And it's very **** which is a click factor. The Make Me video hasn't even been viewed by a lot of fans after the makemegate.

What you are asking for is basically what Max Martin does for Britney. 

I like the direction of Glory and I want her to take ballsy risk. It’s time she became a trendsetter again and she’s not gonna achieve that if you’re asking her to cater to the GP so you know damn well team b and several exhalers here will be all up for that because SALES SALES SALES and tons of numbers.

If she will sing about the past and stand up for herself it would be enough.. something like piece of me but with more depth (paparazzi thing was top of the iceberg).. the second single should be about her exes with JT in mine role :D

WB was controversial though and the GP weren't here for it 

[The Greatest Show]

im over "silly and controversioal" I want something meaningful and with depth.

the YT views clearly didn't help Fergie at all..

the only controversial things Britney could do:

• address 2007 
• shade JT or XTina (this one would definitely generate buzz but most likely in a very negative way because Britney for the most part has always been regarded as a total sweetheart and "the bigger person in an argument" so I doubt this would be a good idea) 
• sing live (no one except Exhale, a couple of gay YouTubers and BuzzFeed's Matt Stopera cared about "Something to Talk About") 

she should stop chasing the charts and instead finally grow as an artist.. PERIOD. EXCLAMATION POINT!

She should sing a power ballad at the Grammys. I guarantee you that would get attention. Nobody gives a **** about her singing a shitty song while looking and sounding terrible in Las Vegas.

I don't know why you all want something 'controversial' even if u know she's boring af in person, I mean: ok, she'll drop something like work ***** or another 'controversial' song, and then she'll do some interviews like: "um, this is very cool song, and I think it's just a song, I don't know what it is about... but you know, I love my kids, chicken nuggets, chocolate, and vanilla candles". Like seriously? She just can't be cotroversial like she was anymore.
