But this is not her on the cover but some digital image of her? Or?
The title sounds like Blurred Happiness which would be better

I'm not bothered by the cover or the title.
Just hope the music is also a tad "off brand"

Because the major label she was on for her last album did such a good job? Releasing her album months too late after her single had peaked at it's key format.
She has a hit at her key format right now, this is exactly the time to be releasing the album. She just needs to get out and do some performances this month and promote. As for the other albums being released that day, she's not competing with Shania, Miley and Demi musically at all. And she isn't going to have a big opening no matter what week she releases on. That's just the state of R&B and album sales right now.

How is it career suicide? What are people's expectations for this? Even with some performances, which she'll have a hard time booking in the first place outside of stuff like Wendy Williams, she'll be lucky to break 25,000 at this point. She's going to flop, period. That's just the state of the genre right now. Miley and Shania aren't going to put a dent in her albums sales, she's just gonna be two rungs lower on the chart. It doesn't make a difference.

I love how she bookends the album with what sound like a paean to eternal devotion and divorce, respectively.

I'm assuming "The Makings Of You" is the same song Monica sampled.

Empty Boxes It's nice she's being concise with the amount of tracks on this album, although I'm also guessing that it's also cheaper to have this amount than any more added tracks.

It would make sense that we get another song/single this Friday.
I'm shocked she is releasing so soon because I would expect her chasing a hit before releasing it. I'm happy she's not and letting "My Man" sells the album then.

She really is a 2 year old. Just release the music, everything else ruins it.

She’s so damn dramatic. She probably just said that to get her fans in a frenzy so she can feel better about herself for the day.

She is always looking for attention. Just because Toni releases a new single she has to find a way to bring attention back to her. PATHETIC! I would hate to be her sister.

5 solo albums and some group stuff is a good run.
Peace out if you want, girl.

You can now preview the album on iTunes. Pick Me Up is an automatic download when you pre-order.

I'm kind of in disbelief at what I heard. The album sounds AWFUL. I don't like any of the songs.

"Pick me up" sounds like a Urban AC hit. She tried to recreate "the one" but it does't sound as urban friendly.

"Pick Me Up" is a jam. Everything else does not sound good...at all.
