Few Pop divas can say they’ve spent as much of their careers fielding comparison to a peer as Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera have.
Mostly fueled by purported similarities in their images, early sound, proximity in their respective rises to fame, and on-and-off again rivalry, the chart titans – now both in their 40s – have endured over 20 years of being pitted against each other, a positioning that seems to show no signs of slowing.
Case in point? Spears taking to Instagram recently to show off her vocal chops.
The glowing newlywed, who has dodged mixed reviews in the past for her vocal showings on the platform, garnered favorable commentary this time when she belted a stunning rendition of her breakthrough 1998 hit ‘Baby One More Time.’
Highlighted with growls and soaring melisma, the contralto showcase – which for many was reminiscent of Xtina’s signature style – was the latest of Britney embracing her true singing voice (the opposite of the thinner and more nasally-driven vocal showings that line her biggest hits).
Look inside to hear the 40-year-old show you what she’s got “one more time.”

“Hey, it’s a mess out there / They can leave, but we don’t care / We’ll stay, I’m good right here / I’ve been waiting for you all year,” sings Hal on the chorus of the groovy dance number.
Before bouncing to pre-order ‘Bounces Vol. 2,’ which also features the likes of Young Thug, Offset, Latto, Tinashe, Chloe Bailey, PUsha T, Snoop Dog, Lil Durk, and more, hop inside to hear the sizzling ‘Stay.’

However, unlike our other segments – Retro Rewind, TGJ Replay, and From The Vault – The Pop Stop is the most in-depth look at Pop songs that may have flown under the radar over the last week that you should know, rather they be from music’s biggest stars or those on the rise.

‘I Try’ hitmaker Macy Gray is trying her hardest to clean up a PR disaster after taking to an interview with Piers Morgan to reveal she believed that ‘just because you go change your parts, doesn’t make you a woman’ (as we reported here).

As the backlash swelled, the 54-year-old has taken to social media and to press to suggest her statements were taken out of context.
