The oldest trick in the book though. Whenever something underperforms or in this case absolutely bombs, it's always too 'artistic' to be digested by the general public. These people like to think they're some top percentage art connoisseurs.
To come off a 3 year hiatus with 3 songs and end up being completely ignored is NOT what one would expect from a major pop girl.
To backtrack on whatever you had planned simply because it didn't resonate with people shows you have no integrity and no free will. You're just basically a money-making puppet and your songs hold no weight as they're just force fed to you.
She's been credited as one of the writers on TWO pre-existing songs that have not changed, not one bit.
And this Samsung deal is the final nail in her coffin. Such a shame cause this album, no matter how many times it got re-recorded ended up actually being one of her best. But to think she'd resort to manipulating sales and certifications just to seem mightier than she really is. Low. People won't forget this. Not hit, no #1 album, tour selling just barely. She's done.
Hopefully she learns her lesson and gets back to her usual routine of dishing out albums annually. I mean it's not like she writes them herself or anything.
