That's how the industry runs these days. There are writing camps and the artists record an overabundance of material. I know one certain artist who recorded 70+ songs for what turned out to be a 10-track standard album.
Plus, you have the management, A+R and label heads whittling the song selection down based on album budget, hit-making potential, promotional campaigns that are tied to certain songs, collaborations with other up-and-coming artists/label mates, etc.
I wish they could throw a 20-song album together too, but a lot more science goes into having a completed tracklist and getting songs to "make the final cut."
something tells me that we'll have the tracklist really really soon
