I don't think Britney and Katy count. Britney's manager confirmed before she released it that they were going to approach a singles-only strategy before the album. And of course, Katy's was a one-off for NBC's broadcast for the Olympics. I do think Katy and co. probably would have smartly capitalized on Rise if it did amazing, but it just did ok. 

Anyway, I think you could add Grimes to the list with her releasing, then scrapping Go.

This doesn't really count as scrapped but Evanescence's first single Bring Me To Life originally had no male vocals in it, but their record company forced them to add a male singing part because they felt the song wouldn't chart without it. The demo versions of the song don't have any male part and there is an official mix of the final song without the vocals called the Bliss Mix

Yes. In fact the whole original concept for Hard Candy was scrapped after record label execs thought it would be pushing the envelope too much.

Do not forget the original and mysterious LG5 concept...

y'all still acting like this is something special :poot:

every album has an "original" concept, sometimes the core of the concept stays the same, sometimes it does not

She actually scrapped the whole original B9 album rumored to be tittled Pretty World because it wasnot what she wanted. Then she hired Karen and they created Glory

Seems like Selena scrapped Bad Loar when it flopped and tried to market Fetish as her lead
