The most influential album to come out from that generation of artists! Truly timeless body of art!

4th album? 

[descg]

The most iconic pop album of the 00's, yes i said that. It's like one of the albums that Janet made but with a more pop and 00's touch. Infatuation and Get Mine Get Yours are the most pop.
Make Over is the most bizarre (I would say the worst, it's like the Bubblehead on the album).
There are songs like Walk Away or Impossible that if have been released as singles before Can't Hold Us Down or The Voice Within would be classics today.

Mi Reflejo, Christmas and Just Be Free (demos that she did it when she was 15 years old and that she did not authorize it, even the producers promised her that they would never release that music).
For me is the third because half of the Mi Reflejo album are new songs.

Fun fact in the initial sessions she had a relationship with Dallas Austin (before he and Chilli start a relationship) and they started doing "Cool" (by Gwen).

I like it but my favorites songs from that album are What Are You Waiting For?, Luxurious and Long Way to Go (social theme lyrics about mixed race relationship by the way).

Walk Away was about Dallas if I'm not mistaken (the best song on the album imo).

In the Zone, Blackout, Back to Black and Fever are definitely much more iconic 

[Princessmimi]

it should've debuted at 1#.

I wonder what album was.

Em... Is your opinion. That albums are so iconic. I think Fever is not that iconic (at the same level (and i buy it at the moment and i love it) is more Dance album that a pop album) Back to Back is not even pop... And "adult/alternative" people like more that music... In The Zone have Toxic and Everytime, yes is very iconic (but the promotion wasn't that long like Christina did with Stripped). Blackout have the "nostalgia" thing and is catchy and have Gimme More.
Stripped have videos like Dirrty and Beautiful and she was everywere. 

My favorites albums from the 00's are Missundaztood and Stripped. Songs like Family Portrait, Dear Diary, Soar and Beautiful touched my soul.

She was blocked by some random Elvis album. The following week Faith Hill blocked her too

It was ELV1S: 30 No. 1 Hits, an Elvis Presley compilation album.

No, is by Scott Storch, there is not songs of Dallas in Stripped.

Edit: oh the lyrics about him, I have never thought about it
