I'd usually agree about Syco being an abomination but Chapter One hasn't left the top 40 since release and has sold consistently week on week. It'll go Platinum this week which is a big deal nowadays. Single choices haven't been bad but nothing is as strong as Ghost which is where the problem lies.
The US side of things lands with Colombia and even then Ghost is smashing Pop & Hot AC right now. They've laid good foundations with Ella but they need to get it right with album 2 to insure she isn't one hit wonder.
As for Fluer, poor ha. Let's hope Simon has no input on this album as his music taste is.. dated, to be kind.
