Janet Jackson Blames Def Jam for Album's Poor Sales

Posted by Fara Kearnes on June 9, 2008 5:09 PM |

janet jacksonJanet Jackson is in battle of words with record label Def Jam with the singer revealing that all promotion of her latest album 'Discipline' has ceased. During a teleconference with the SOHH website on June 2, Janet revealed their was a problem with the release date for her next single release. She and Def Jam "haven't seen eye-to-eye" on her album since its first single, Feedback.

"They've basically stopped all promotion," Jackson says. "I've tried to think of a way to say this, but it's best to be honest. I doubt there'll be another single."

Additionally, Jackson said that due to her ongoing battle with the label, upcoming plans to tour the album in Europe have been put on hold.

"I just want to let the fans know because I’ve been reading a lot what the bloggers have been saying about the record and not hearing it on the radio and stuff like that, so I just wanted to let them know where things were as well and where it was all coming from. I’ve heard people talking about me not coming to Europe in support of the record just to let them know that it was definitely in my heart to go to Europe and to support this album but it’s about teamwork, it’s not something I can totally do on my own," she said.

"Unfortunately things have turned out the way that they have with the differences between the label and myself, which we have been having for the most part from the beginning. So I just want to tell them again thank you very much for all the love and all the support and I they understand the entire situation and I’m really excited to see everybody on tour. I’m really looking forward to that it’s going to be a lot of fun."
