The point of being called a group is that everyone sings on every track.

Take Destiny’s child for example – Beyonce did the lead vocals but Kelly always got a few verses in and michelle would do the Bridge.

There’s nothing wrong with Nicole doing LEAD vocals… as long as the other girls get featured on every track aswell.

It does surprise me though that melody is not on joint lead vocals, it’d make the songs more interresting.

The first album was much based on the success of singles, and it is entirely clear that Interscope is willing to release seven, eight singles like they did last time, and promote the hell out of them, to get this thing to sell.

Not to mention the fact that Danity Kane barely made an impact outside of the US & Canada, while PCD clearly has worldwide appeal in the UK, Australia/New Zealand, Canada, and across Europe.

Some singles on this album are extremely hot. If you'll remember, "Stickwitu" and "Buttons" were more successful than "Don't Cha", so I think "I Hate This Part", "Magic", and "Elevator" have the ability to ramp up sales later on.
