Britney fed so many mouths. American Idol probably wouldn't have even existed without her setting the precedent she set with ...Baby One More Time because her impact as a female solo artist was massive.
All of the females in the game right now owe a debt to her because she proved that solo females in pop music could become successful again. Prior to her it was all about groups. She completely rejuvenated the pop scene. To remove her from pop culture would be to remove every female solo artist from 99' onward.

Britney's sexualization in her music has had an impact on pop culture. I'm A Slave 4 U for instance influenced numerous other more sexualized singles from other female artists. Toxic pre-dates the pop-dance explosion. Blackout also made dance-pop more visible along with the Timbaland group to make it more prolific. She is also introducing dubstep into the mainstream. That's not to mention that bubble-gun pop music was definitely at the fore-front musically in part to her. Musically Britney has always either been ahead of trends or helped break them to audience. She's a trend setter musically. The problem is that Britney herself as a celebrity is bigger then her music. That doesn't mean she doesn't have musical importance or impact.

Uh, wasn't "Reflection" released and Christina signed before BOMT was even released? Wasn't that the first Disney foray into using in-house stars launched into music careers? Best believe they would also have returned to that well with the success of their female-driven original series in the 00s.
And  I love how you characterize every successful female singer-songwriter of the 00s as only being signed in a kneejerk response to create the "anti-Britney," as if those types hadn't already been hugely successful in the 90s (Alanis? Jewel?).
Nelly's career in particular had nothing to do with Britney, and she was at the forefront of the late-00s dance trend which brought Gaga/Rihanna/Katy/Ke$ha.
You are doing the most.

And Madonna paved the way for female artists to be more controversial and sexual regarding their image and music videos. Not Britney. 
And no star was Anti-Britney. There were plenty of girly blonde haired, all american teen pop singers before Britney.

That is only one component of her impact though. She influenced many things. The two most successful Idol artists - Kelly and Carrie also bare her image and mark. The Anti-Britney's likely would never have gotten their chance if not for her which included lots of talented artists. Add in other artists like Gwen who used the template of her musical style to launch their solo career. Britney's impact is vast and reaches all over the place. Katy, Rihanna, Gaga, Ke$ha, tons of UK acts and numerous other people have been influenced or impacted by her. I don't even think that can be denied. You may not think they are talented but that is besides the fact. Britney still impacted them and their careers.

Her first album were not bad but latest one's are total mess.There is no her in her music.Not even a one percent.Not to mention she is such a flop now and seems like unknown Jessie J sold more copies of her latest album than Britney.Only true fans stay with her till now,when in the "whole world" she's far from being good in sales,people respect and other.
Yes Britney was HUGE but it wasn't Madonna or Michael type of HUGE - maybe she inspired some not so much clever disney acts,but its not someting to be proud of.Her songs are typical dance song when for example Madonna did songs about current social problems and i can't see any Britney song or video to be remembered even 10 years from now.
And if her new album will be same as Femme Fatale or Circus it would sold not more than million worldwide and label would drop her.She need to change.

I wouldn't mind RCA dropping Britney then she'll move to Def Jam or something else better but girl? The last person RCA is going to drop from their roster is Britney. 
And no one's saying Britney was as big as MJ(that'd be delusions) but Britney was more successful than Madonna's first ten years in the business until that fateful shaving incident. Britney's songs aren't meant to do sheezh in this world but you'd be technically deceased to think Britney's songs or videos would be forgotten by ten years when she lasts more than that already.

Reflection was released in the spring of 1998 and flopped.  Christina was originally supposed to be an adult contemporary artist and they completely changed her musical style and re-hauled her image after Britney hit it big. If that doesn't say that Christina's career pre-Britney was dead in the water I don't know what does. Christina had an entire year to hit it big prior to Britney's release of BOMT. This basically tells us that Britney justified Christina's recording contract. Without her Christina would have been an unknown girl who sang on a Disney soundtrack.

Avril, Michelle Branch and P!nk were not releasing the same kind of music Jewel (folk-country) or even Alanis (soft-rock/rock) were releasing during that time period. All the music they sang was pop music with a rock tinge to make their songs seem "edgier" then the other pop music on the radio that time due to Britney's influence. All of their music was catered with a pop edge to make it sell to the same market Britney was being marketed to. They were anti-Britney's because they were a funhouse mirror image of what Britney represented and the music Britney sang. It was basically pop music with an aggressive rock chic glaze.

Nelly's career started back in 2001 though and she was an anti-Britney along with Vanessa Carlton, Michelle Branch and other folk-pop artists who were filtered with a pop edge.

If you don't think Britney has influenced Beyonce is cool. But coming here to say Britney doesn't have any impact in pop music is just ********. She's the biggest pop act since Madonna and I'm not talking about sales only. The bitch is recognized in the whole world as a the icon that she is, denying this is just stupid.

I know right?
Britney did not invent, nor inspire other artists to use sex in their music. Madonna, Janet, and even DC were already doing before Britney came out. Britney did not also push electronic music to the forefront. This had been going on since the 90's.
There's really no much Britney contributed to music except be successful. Her vocals weren't the best, her performances skills faded, and her image degraded. She was great in her prime, but two years of being huge is not going to make you a legend. That was simply popularity. Justin Bieber is not the next MJ. Britney is not the next Madonna. It takes consistency and respect in some form to inspire others and become a legend and Britney has neither. Beyonce is well on her way.
