I know sis. That's almost literally what I was doing. Except I put reasonable money into the album and singles (which were released two years down the line). I would have been fine had the bankruptcy happened when it was supposed to, and not four months early.
Might start again with a different character

I always do the slowest recording option. Do y'all usually do a faster one? I'm all about ACCLAIM QUALITY and TALENT, music not the bling

Someone clearly didn't listen to Kingdom Come (Then again, I'm guessing many haven't either)

I actually did a laissez faire recording, then gone the band, and ask for many duet and collaborations, like around 20, then the week after I had all these collaboration negociations, and hop album done. Don't you see all the featuring.

I usually do the slowest too. However, I did standard for Mai's first album to get it in decent, and I did standard for her 2nd. Then I was gonna do Free Range for the 3rd, and from then on do Laissez Faire when I had the opporunity to do it. Shame that didn't happen.

I did that once and ended up having two albums full of collaborations and another of solo material, all like 90% or above

I made this teen pop boy band. And like many boy bands they sell like crazy. But they didn't last long.
JL5 - 36 million WW
Hit Them With Another One...- 16 million WW
Never Gone - 2 million WW/900k US
wtf  I spent 92 million on that album including distribution and promo. I'm releasing a greatest hits album, and they're getting dropped swiftly. I've never seen anyone flop that bad before. The lead singe didn't even chart in the US.

Is there a star among them? Make one go solo and drop the rest!

That's what I plan on doing. Hopefully I get a Justin Timberlake and not a JC.

Y'all I'm livid. I was convinced this was gonna be a major album, I shipped 10 million in the US alone. I put so much energy into this. Now I have millions of album sitting in stores.
Now this is a true "shipped them right back" moment.
