DIL clocked ha! XO shouldn't be counted as debut single tbh scream2

idk wikipedia said it was the lead

anyway, Formation was handled wrong it could have been at least top 5

she needs to drop the ''quick little singles'' narrative and release a proper lead with a proper performance and MV that can actually be watched

Glory received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 71, which indicates "generally positive reviews", based on 14 reviews.[45] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine rated the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, and called the album's sound "daring and mature", but criticized "Private Show", calling it "the album's only bona-fide misfire."[2] In a positive review, Maura Johnston from The Boston Globe described the album as one with "an unbridled energy" that "operates on its own terms."[47] Neil McCormick from The Daily Telegraph praised the production on the album, and noted that "every track sounds like a single".[48] In a mixed review of the album, Jon Parales from The New York Times claimed that the album was "one-dimensional", but noted her as sounding like she "has emphatically returned to the foreground."[52] Mesfin Fekadu from Associated Press noted Spears "has taken note and jumped on the bandwagon [of R&B]" but claimed that the songs were not "authentically Britney."[55] In contrast, Nolan Feeney from Entertainment Weekly characterized the songs on the album as sounding "like glimpses of the real Britney—her musical tastes, her voice—imperfections and all."[49]

In particular, Spears's vocals were generally praised. The Los Angeles Times described the vocals as a "vast improvement" over those on Britney Jean, remarking that "the very performed nature of the singing [...] makes Glory such a good time."[50] The Boston Globeremarked that Spears was "throwing herself fully into her vocal performance" on the album and The New York Times described Spears as sounding "more involved, more present, than she has in a decade."[47][52] Rolling Stonepositively compared Spears's vocals to those on In the Zone, noting "she hasn't played around with her vocals so cleverly since the "Toxic" days."[53] Entertainment Weeklydescribed the album as "her most engaging vocally" in a decade and noted Spears as sounding "more present and enthusiastic than she has in years."[49] In a similar sentiment, Idolator described Spears as sounding "more lucid, engaged and front-and-center than she's been in years."[56] Slant Magazine credited Spears with a "willingness to stretch vocally and explore new sonic terrain", but also remarked that at times, this "highlight her shortcomings".[2]
