By the Numbers
Glory is a critically praised late-career album on which Britney Spears co-wrote several tracks, including Invitation and Private Show. It pulls together a wide roster of producers, from BloodPop to Cashmere Cat, across a varied pop palette. Her co-writing share is moderate, with the singles built around outside collaborators.
Glory is the ninth studio album by Britney Spears, released in August 2016 on RCA Records and produced by Benny Blanco, Jon Bellion, and others. It is critically regarded as the most coherent and musically engaging album since Blackout, with a consistent electronic-pop aesthetic and the most creative production of the post-crisis era. Spears co-wrote most tracks; 'Make Me...' (featuring G-Eazy), 'Private Show,' and 'Slumber Party' (featuring Tinashe) were the principal singles, with the album's digital-only release generating streaming numbers that were not fully captured by traditional album sales metrics. Glory debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 with 77,000 first-week units and has been certified platinum in the United States; it was re-released in 2020 with additional tracks. The album is regarded by critics as Spears's last significant creative statement before the public 'Free Britney' movement highlighted the conditions of her conservatorship, which was ultimately terminated in November 2021.
