Angel has an especially bad case of her singing to the demo vocals.
And xoxo could have easily been one of Nicki Minaj's RedOne tracks which where dated back in 2012 so sounds especially stale now.
I do like Lelio though I'll admit, but the English in it makes me think it's another bought demo.

So the point of this post is yes, she releases more than Western artists but if she's just going to buy the bulk of the album then at least spend more and get better tracks or go with unknowns who'll have better cheaper songs (Kumi does it).

It seems Ayu/Avex had 5 or so songs written in their normal way and just bought into the RedOne/DarkChild/Fedde le Grand name as a selling point so they could make an album.
I think that's the point ,I mean they even used those producers as a selling point. I do like her new songs, but those songs are obviously demos, they don't really match her style (although it's still great imo). I'm pretty sure that she has done this before that's why it's not really a big deal for me.

I'm actually rooting for this album! I can't wait ^^
