really bad news
Aug. 24th, 2003 08:39 pmFrom majafigga at the JJB (who has been previously accurate):
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Jive will not be releasing JC's single this week. Alot of drama is going on as most of you have already guessed. Hopefully sometime between this week and next week there will be an announcement from either him or Jive as to when we will hear something. I do know for a fact that a single will be released this year, but as for the album, that is another ordeal. Although Jive is greatly to blame in this, there are not completely at fault. Alot of things go into setting up an album launch and sometimes all parties don't agree. ALL ARTISTS go through this (just ask P!nk, Toni Braxton, Whitney Houston, etc.), so it's not going to be different for JC. The sad part is it is not his publicist or his marketing people at the label that are causing the problems. Just be aware that there is more to a story than one side and all parties involved have their reasons and or motives (you've got the artist, their management and the label which has MANY layers and players involved on one project).
What JC will bring to the table will be very different from Justin (as most of you have already heard the snippets) but it will be worth the wait, especially for the stuff you haven't heard. Just stay tuned and try your best to hang in there...He needs alot of positive support right now.
No single next week, and apparently an album this year has become questionable at all.
