In the Zone by Britney Spears
In the Zone is an album by Britney Spears, released in 2003. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 6 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Toxic”, on 6 lists with a best position of #30.
In the Zone, Britney Spears' fourth studio album, came out on Jive in November 2003, and it's the record where the teen-pop princess grew up in public. She started writing on the Dream Within a Dream Tour without knowing where the album was going, ended her relationship with Justin Timberlake along the way, and scrapped a planned break to get back in the studio.
She auditioned producers until the chemistry clicked, working with Bloodshy & Avant, R. Kelly, Moby, Guy Sigsworth and the Matrix, and duetting with Madonna. The result is a sleek, eclectic club record, pop and urban grooves shot through with techno and Middle Eastern color, with songs about romance, partying and sex. Critics praised the adventurous production, even if her vocals sometimes sound distant and processed. It debuted at the top of the Billboard 200, and "Toxic" won her a Grammy.
