Is blackout EMO?

What

[Goten21]

No. I can definitely see edgy e-girl though

[PokemonSpears]

no, the emo boys and girls I knew from back in the day were only into My Chemical Romance, Panic at the Disco, and stuff like that

Britney was too cool for them

[Towelney]

No, but I think it fits the e-boy/e-girl aesthetic

Blackout is definitely not sad. Rather confident. But aesthetically (and the name) are so 2007-2008 EMO revival

[bryannspears]

Nowhere near it. The closest pop girl that got to emo was Avril with Under My Skin, but even then she wasn't touching the emo Hot Topic bands of the 2000s

[Stannedforever]

 It's edgy but not emo. There's a huge difference between those two.

What a great question!  

Is Britney Jean a highly conceptual album about fame? Fame on a leash?

it’s subjective.

Emo, often considered a rock music genre, but it can be attributed to any genre, is characterized by an emphasis on emotional expression, sometimes through confessional lyrics.

Britney didn’t write the majority of the songs on Blackout, but they could be considered confessional in the sense they are referencing her life from the first person.

However, most songs on the album don’t deal with emotional expression except “Why Should I be Sad”, which is the perfect Emo song literally and metaphorically 

So, not really. It’s actually a lot more Punk than Emo.

Ugh right like **** me up and let me quickly start watching anime again while listening to melancholic music all while posting thirst traps and playing video games 

[popprison]

No lol but thinking of it now, it is definitely one of her best albums. Top 3 for sure 

[Oprah Winfrey.]

It’s more e girl 

[Jamie Lynn Forever]

no... emo means nothing in this context. a terribly misconstrued and misused word. It's so over used as a broad term to describe a multitude of things... Actual "emo" music existed in the late 80's and was a subgenre of punk rock, "emo" is a shortening of "Emotional hardcore punk rock".

Nowadays there is emo-rap like Lil Peep, Juice wrld, Xxxtentacion, Ghostmane... 

Blackout couldn't be more far way from that vibe. Blackout is not depressing or melancholic except maybe for two songs (Heaven on Earth, Why should i be sad) ,

Blackout is more like hallucinatory and mellow ******** music.
