This is a bit sell-outISH, if she really loves the music she makes she would release it without worrying about its popularity
she still wrote the music though, so it's not really selling out. Record labels and music industry is about making money. There is not one artist out there who has 100% control over all their career. Unless you're an indie artist which is completely different.
Then again, she recorded the song, she did the music video. She was the one who wrote the song
She's pulling an Avril Lavigne (Goodbye Lullaby) situation here .Saying "my record company forced me to make fun songs for the singles only, the rest of the album is more me, more mature", yet c'mon Lily. You're the one who wrote them. You could've made an upbeat radio friendly song that was still authentic.
It seems like a weird cop-out. There's no excuse for making bullsh*t songs amirite

at least she's honest with herself and her fans and doesn't pretend to create art, she's acknowledging the fact that she's a pop singer, end of story. love her
She said she went back to music, because she wanted to work again after having her children and realised that she wasn't qualified to do anything else other than being a popstar

Selling out had nothing to do with writing the music.
