One Song

Britney Spears “Toxic"

This week on One Song, Diallo Riddle and LUXXURY get Toxic! Join for LUXXURY’s thesis on why the song is a pop masterpiece that weds high art and obscure sonic references with Britney Spears’ bubblegum vocals. There’s also all of the usual deep dives, rabbit holes, and interpolations — Including a James Bond connection.  Artist: Britney Spears Album: In the Zone Released: 2003 Genres: Electropop, Dance Pop Featured songs: Like I Love You by Justin Timberlake, Rumble by Link Wray &amp; The Wraymen, Miserlou by Dick Dale, Pipeline by The Chantays, Livin' la Vida Loca by Ricky Martin, The James Bond Theme by John Barry, Bad Sign, Good Sign by Monty Norman, Touch Me by Cathy Dennis, All The Parties by Drake and Chief Keef, West End Girls by Pet Shop Boys

On each episode of ONE SONG, friends Diallo Riddle ( Emmy-nominated star and creator of HBO Max’s South Side and IFC’s Sherman’s Showcase) and Blake "LUXXURY" Robin (Music Producer &amp; TikTok creator) will hilariously break down ONE SONG from the pop music canon that you know - or need to know - but have never heard quite like this.
