Well I've been reading many articles about this singer and actually really nothing has went wrong. She just had her major spotlight and now it went a little dim but she still has her main core fan base especially in Japan and China actually. She still has many fans in other countries too but she doesn't have a whole lot of fans in America as she did back in 2002. What are the reasons who really knows cuz everybody has different reasons about why they change artist for why they don't like this artist no more just like she grew up people's tastes have changed. She is still a viable artist with really great record sales everybody's comparing her to when she first came out that might never happen again even though the population has grown. Her Hello Kitty song and video was meant for a different audience it wasn't meant for America it was meant for Japan and they love it. Everybody blames her record label and maybe they are to blame but one of the things you have to understand if she came out with different feelings and different albums with a different look and also back in 2002 it was a different way to promote then there is now the internet is a big promotion now back then it was radio and MTV and all that other stuff. Also there's a lot more artists out now and since you can get the songs ready available on the computer a lot of people don't buy albums no more or CDs or pay for downloads one person gets it gives it to 30 of his friends. The main thing is is that you would enjoy her albums when they come out play the songs to death that you're like don't really listen to the songs that you don't like even though some people claim they love all of the songs of other artists which I never did. One of the things maybe to her disadvantages is that she came out one way and then even though it wasn't overnight but it seems like it's a song she changed into a woman and started wearing girls clothes and stuff. So let's wait and see what this new 2017 album is all about I won't be buying it cuz I'm really not much into her no more there are other artists I like that I'd rather listen to but we'll see
