How come Britney didn’t record background vocals for “Blackout”?

[BadBunny]

Was she just lazy or did she just not want to bc she wanted to be quirky and different?

Not true hunty, since Bs vocals are layered and mixed with Keri Hilson and co.

it gives it a nicer feel and distinctive sonic experience .

Vocals being mixed in with another singer’s isn’t background vocals. Learn what the definition of a fact is and then get back to me.

Personally, it’s more artistic when the artist records their own background vocals. I understand when she didn’t during the BOMT/Oops days when heavy choruses were in as that was the Swedish pop trend. But just look at “Slave 4 U” / “Make Me” and how sonically euphoric the choruses sound.

As I remember the years she recorded Blackout, it's a miracle she recorded so many songs considering she was papped 24/7 and only a few times leaving the recording studio.

She literally recorded bg vocals on BOMT, OIDIA, STRONGER, LUCKY…like what are you talking about?! Also she does backing vocals on several songs on Blackout.

Imagine calling someone lazy when they were a executive producer of said album and lol lead vocals on all tracks  Can I ask what have you been doing today sweetie? My bet is sat on ya flat as s typing out troll comments and threads.

Not to mention she was pregnant for most of blackout’s recording. Plus what does it matter

[ObsessedBritFan1]

I remember her cooing and choking on ice throughout her background vocals. I think there was a clip somewhere. So, I do believe the self-induced choking really elevated the grittiness of Blackout.

Did she?! Omg. I was always under the impression that her bg vocalists from the Cheiron days were Max and Nana Hadin.

It’s been documented to death that she gave them a very strict timeline in those studio sessions. She came in, laid **** down and bounced.  Britney giving us pop perfection with 15% effort.

I think it was a decision based on the style of production they wanted. True Britney's personal life was stressful but we know she recorded a lot of material for the Blackout sessions and she does have backing vocals on some songs. This wasn't a case like BJ where she was barely involved, she was the executive producer and everyone that worked with her on the album said she was a boss and got what she wanted.

Some songs on Blackout have added flavor because of the backing vocals being by other singers. Keri adds a lot to the album and the male vocals add for some really nice contrast, I can't imagine the album with them taken away. At that point it's a stylistic choice.

[trip to my touch]

cause they are background vocals...

Exactly she was like in the studio 30 minutes, did her thing, and then gone. I guess Hot As Ice was recorded like this and needed like one take if I'm not wrong.
