When Christina Aguilera released her garish, sexually charged sophomore effort, Stripped, in 2002, it seemed that she pushed her obsessions with tweaking taboos just a little too far.
Sure, she could still sing, but her music was now driven entirely by skeletal club grooves and explicit carnality.
It was a bold break from the teenybopper persona she was desperate to shed, but it was overcorrective steering, taking her a little bit too far down the road toward a grotesque caricature, particularly in her ugly video for the album's lead single, "Dirrty." All this grandstanding provoked an intense reaction, not just among fans but among her collaborators, who also wondered if Christina was going a little too far, but she managed to keep from sinking largely on the strength of the ballad "Beautiful," an empowering statement of self-love that managed to dampen "Dirrty"'s impact even if it didn't erase it.
It also set the stage for the next phase of her career: as an outright old-fashioned diva, much like Madonna or Cher.
Smartly, she followed this path for her third album, the sprawling, deliriously entertaining double-disc Back to Basics.
