The Cure on LG7 confirmed

interesting. sort of makes sense maybe if they are sonically similar or he wants them to have a boost. 

 

imagine it’s like if Gaga does a rock album and she puts electric chapel on it just for fun. makes sense in the age of tiktok

Swalla (Jason’s version)

but electric chapel already is in an album when swalla isn't. not saying it's okay tho, I hate putting standalone singles in albums that they dont belong

Should be illegal

Cringe 

[Riley 1,355]

Especially unnecessary given nobody is asking for a 27-track album from Jason Derulo in the first place... 

[Plastic Flower 5,373]

So that's why Nicki didn't know about the feature

I'm actually here for it because I hate stand alone singles and need them compiled onto an actual album for organization. I listened to his album and nearly all of them are bangers.

That could've been ARTPOP Anniversary edition. 

[RadioIsOurs 13,876]

Eh, some artists just don't evolve...

If it's getting a physical release, I don't have a problem with it. I kinda don't anyway except from a creative standpoint. lol

The only real issue I can see is that it would falsely inflate the streaming numbers of the album, like Kim Petras including Unholy on her 4th debut album when she's only a feature, but at least in that case it was released in the same year.

Anything this man put out makes me cringe so badly.. the only thing good I can say is that he’s cash grabber  and he stand by it at least he’s not trying to be pretentious.

Is it to boost the albums stream numbers?
