Reinventing doesn't need to be outrageous, and it doesn't mean going plain either. She could do so many things that people aren't doing atm, choose a new image, a new inspiration source, a new theme that speaks for itself...
The thing is, everything's been done already, if you look at some of the current successful artists, most of them are repeating what's been done and make it a bit different to seem like it is "fresh".
ayu is been relying on her image for over a decade, changing small things at times and changing everything at times too. But in the last few years she's been a bit monotonous.
Okay, Party Queen. Great theme, but portrayed very poorly. First of all, let's say that not having promoting singles was a positive thing because she could have had an album with a proper theme without loose songs flying around. The real problem was that it was just very poorly executed. She appeared wearing a very cute dress giving interviews for the album, and every time the back drop was PQ's cover, it was so contradictory, even though she tried to explain herself, people didn't seem to fall for it. Also, mutating HOTEL Love songs into Hotel PQ songs was a bit messy too, and it feels like that tour dragged on for. ever.
