I STILL stand by Bryan Adams (`11 `was hardly a classic...IMHO He`s not done much of interest since he moved to the UK.)

U2 (Even with the BBC backing them they havn`t had a decent hit from NLOTH)

Here`s somemore to think about...

Most of Band Aid 20 (Busted, Ms Dynamite, Joss Stone, Dido,

Supergrass
ASH
Lisa Stansfield”

Yes Supergrass last released a album nearly 2 years ago now but didnt really set the charts alight nor did the singles released from it.

What happened to Corrine Bailey Rae?
She had that one song "Put Your Record On" then left without a trace.
Also Rem Nicole with "Go Mr. Sunshine" - I quite liked that song.

No Doubt are still around but haven't released an album for about 8 years.

Justin Timberlake

It seems like he's been around forever but he's only made 2 albums , the last one being in 2006 , he seems to be more famous for his cameo appearances nowadays”

Off the mark here.
OutKasts last (non sountrack) album sold over 11 million. Theyve been on semi hiatus since. That doesnt mean theyre not one of the biggest hiphop groups of all time.

And Justin just drops albums every 4-5 years, which is a trend for the superstar artists. They usually have multiple singles and support an album for 2 years. Just look at Beyonces album.

Her husband died and she stopped making music. She's just finally releasing a new single and album.

To be fair they went on hiatus when Gwen Stefani released 2 very popular albums. She's decided to drop the solo career and they're due back this year.

To be fair a lot of the people in this thread released albums in the past few years and are currently recording new ones.

She released her last album in 2007 which sold over 5 million copies worldwide and then toured in 2008.

Her new album will be out this year.

Whatever happened to Blazing Squad?

Scissor Sisters are releasing a new album this year. Jake said he wasn't completely happy with the Ta-Dah, so they've spent a long time striking this one right I suppose.

Also, their drummer buggered off and they had to find a replacement, which probably set them back a bit.
