Amazing pure dance pop? Yes yes yes!
2. Britney Spears, “Blackout” (Jive)
3. Rihanna, “Good Girl Gone Bad” (SRP/Def Jam/IDJMG)
Specifically the non-U.S. version that’s packaged with what amounts to a complete “Good Girl Gone Bad” remix album. Awesome.

A German-language swing singer of real international quality.

Back from the brink with renewed creativity.

Tough lyrics, hard voice, energetic rock.

Still the freshest rap act to emerge from Germany.

And Germans are also able to produce latino hits…

A new, inspiring voice.

Encapsulating everything that made the tenor a global star.
