Welcome to the first Music Power Rankings of 2011. The music business comes to a halt over the holidays and it takes a number of weeks for it to ramp back up. Hence, we took a few liberties with this week’s rankings towards the bottom; however, Britney Spears comes by her No. 1 ranking totally honestly.
Excitement around her new single, “Hold It Against Me” had reached fever pitch by the time the song, the first from her upcoming March album, rolled out Monday morning. By the end of the day, it was No. 1 on iTunes and and will likely debut at No. on the Billboard Hot 100 next week. When we think about where the abyss she was in both musically and, more importantly, personally, only a few years ago, it’s a marvelous and triumphant resurrection.
1. Britney Spears: Not only will we not hold the success of “Hold It Against Me” against her, we’ll welcome her continued return to the top with open arms.
