Sometimes albums get delayed due to singles not poppin’, an artist’s personal issues, or beef with the record label. Here are 9 artists who have had their albums pushed back time and time again.
Lil Wayne
Lil Wayne’s The Carter IV was originally slated for a June 2011 release, but got pushed back to August 29, 2011. Wayne’s song “John” with Rick Ross not blowing up and his busy tour schedule were to blame.
Beyonce
Her album Mrs. Carter was suppose to come out April 16, but got put on the back burner due to her promotional singles “Bow Down” and “I Been On” falling flat. How do you go on tour with no major album to promote?
Young Jeezy
Young Jeezy’s Thug Motivation 103 got pushed back for 2 years with a final release date of December 20, 2011. Damn.
Ciara
Ciara’s album “Fantasy Ride” almost got pushed back to when pigs fly, but finally was released on December 10, 2010.
Usher
Usher’s album Raymond vs. Raymond got pushed back to March 26, 2010 because his mom bumped heads with his boo thang Grace Miguel.
Chris Brown
Chris’ “X” album got pushed back AGAIN from November 19 to December 3. Good news for Breezy fans: he is adding five more songs to “X” to make up for the delay.
Ashanti
Ashanti announced the delay of her album “BraveHeart” on the day of its release. The album is slated to be released November 19.
Kelly Rowland
Kelly’s new album “Talk A Good Game” was set to be released June 4, but came out June 14. The album only sold 68.000 copies in it’s first week. Yikes.
Dr. Dre
Dr. Dre is the king of delayed albums. People have been waiting for Detox to drop since Ice Cube had a jheri curl. Where’s the album Dre?
