Lets admit it as much as we love the pure bubble gum pop, this album was simply commercial, and was made before Britney was known to be such a huge success.
The tracks were to catch the eyes of children and teen worldwide, whilst the "Baby one more time" captured the other needed audiences.
I"m not exactly sure what to thick of the album, it is truely Britney, it's Britney being enclosed and told what to do, and doing it brilliantly...
But still this was a learning album for Britney, and without it she wouldnt be "the queen of pop"...

So it worked well for her image and put Britney at the top of the Pop hits.
Cleverly done, but not inspiring.
