James Arthur ''I've been promised creative control over my music if i win''

'This show has evolved. If either me or Jahmene won, the albums will be good and they will sell.

'There's creative control this year, there hasn't been that before.'

'My fans should know the producers have told us, we'll have full creative control over our album'

Asked about previous male winners doing poorly in the album charts James said

'I find the statistics ridiculous, the blokes that have won before have had a niche, they haven't sold records because they haven't made great albums. That's the bottom line.

Well said, really. Gary won't be pleased though - he wrote Matt Cardle's post X Factor song.

That's so SYCO can blame you when it all goes 'tits up' mate.

Leon Jackson's album actually had some pretty great material, but that flopped due to the lousiest promotion ever, or lack of it in fact.

None of them are going to sell much at all.

Makes it easier for them to be dropped, Matt hasn't actually done that badly.

When the lead single off his second album was outsold by Frankie Cocozza?

When his most recent gig was opening for Steps at the light switch on in Stockport?

When he's out of the Top 80 after five weeks on the chart?

They definitely won't have creative control. He'll be able to write songs but Syco will decide what songs go on the album. If his first album is a success only then will he most likely be able to take control.
