The third album though (Loose)? I mean the wheels just kinda fell off. She broke up with her daughter's father around this time and things seemed to change. Many of the songs and her entire image changed to be all skanky and sexual. Promiscuous Girl? Maneater? You don't have to look too hard to figure out that message.

Her third album is her most critically acclaimed, and it brought her money, fame and success in America. Not to mention heavy production by Timberland. It's the only one I'd consider buying.
