Their singles mostly chart on R&B BB Chart and misses the Hot 100 and their albums get release. In Nicole's case, it seems weird.. Or do they spend a certain amount on different artists? Coz it confusing AF.

For some reason they always pull all plugs if a single underperforms in the US with Nicole's solo music, which is odd. Since they spent probably millions on the producers, writers, videos etc. It would be easy to atleast earn some money back through a release. You can't tell me that releasing nothing is favourable money wise instead of making money of stuff with a release, even limited to a digital format.
Also if an album is out, it is much easier to choose singles and that is a main problem since the HNIN era. And that is also her never ending studio curse. She keeps recording and recording and at the end she delivers for the fans, but shifted a lot of material, that easily could have been succesful.
I wish Interscope would have puppeted her a bit more. I know Nicole is an amazing artist, but she never found the basis to launch properly on, on a big scale. And a succesful but a bit mindless era, could have brought so many more on the table back in 2007 then the path she has now. PCD was puppeted and guided to a big extend, and she benefited from that. She now wanders between her own dreams and what is "hot". She wants to be a credible artist, but also get the easy radio hits. I wonder if she ever thinks about either going completely going her way, or going completely mainstream again. Since this compromise she has business wise, seems to get confusing. On her part, on Interscope's part and also on the fans part, since they also have no idea what to expect or worship.
