People need to chill out. The article in the Post is COMPLETELY wrong. This album is X-Tina's vision and fruit of her labor. There are no other factors except it is uniquely Christina.

The NY Post (not know for journalistic integrity) "assumes" lots but can't verify anything.

So, if you're a fan, buy and support the artist, if you're a hater, you'll always be a hater.

Either you like the vocalist, or you like a song (and/or by the artist). A record company rarely puts music on an album without the artist's consent, because the artist won't support it (touring/radio, etc.). They will try their best to get the best music on (as they do have a financial investment to sell), so they don't go out of their way to put out bad records (Big Boi's last LP on Uni for instance 60K first week, out of top 15 2nd week).
