They just released it because they are contractually obligated to do so. The girls would rather stop being idols rather to work with them again and no sane person would do something beyond their means for people who are suing them. So, I guess, the dirt poor quality is to be expected.
Respectfully, I'm starting to think no one should speak about FIFTY-FIFTY and their company unless they have legal knowledge at this point. This whole situation is becoming a mess.
From a print press perspective, they also went cheap 'cause they only used two colors which saves on ink and they don't have to worry about registering the colors--just an overprint black. Another note, warmer colors dry faster than anything with blue/Cyan in it. In addition, it looks like the used parent sized paper instead of cutting it to a custom size which may explain the blank pages. From my experience, they've cut every corner in the book or lack of cutting in this case. I don't think ANYONE is this bad. As for the contract, they've already known the timeline since the second they signed the contract and planned accordingly. Assuming they did they must've had to cut corners at the last minute after they found out they're not going to make any money off this. The boycott is somewhat of a short squeeze if you think about it. It's disheartening that Hunnies are going to experience what Orbits have. I feel ESPECIALLY sorry for the multi-s that stan both. SMH
Or they were working on designs and booked some more photoshoots, but then everything gets torn apart... Basically everyone involved is having a bad time ..
If it's due to a previously agreed contract (signed prior to the whole debacle), there should be a traceable record of it somewhere. And if so, then the situation is completely understandable - ATTRAKT would need to deliver or face likely financial penalties, and what we're seeing is ATTRAKT delivering the bear minimum of what the contract requires (no doubt in part due to the legal standoff between the different parties and due to their already stretched finances from the various ongoing legal battles).
They have 6 songs. And only 5 of them are on the album. Not only that, but they added alternate recordings of some of the songs, resulting in 2 versions of "Tell Me", 5 versions of "Cupid" and 2 versions of "Lovin' Me". The mixing on some of the new versions also isn't very good, in comparison to the old versions, which makes me wonder if they were really scrambling to get it done.
@@KariAlvarezsI don't think so, because other artists release mixes of their same song too for music charting purposes (e.g. Taylor Swift's Anti-Hero). The reason for that is because streams for remixes can be attributed to the original song.
Yes, Lovin' Me and Tell Me is x2 since they added an ot4 version and normal version. Cupid is there x5 (original, twin ver, twin ver ft. Sabrina, twin ver ot4 & Speed up)
LJH just revealed Sung-Il aka The Givers were in charge of the Album all the way in April. Sung-Il kept delaying the design. When the girls left their dorms in June 19. Sung-Il told JHJ he’s out! Days later he send the album design. The death line was June 20 something and ATTRAKT had not choice but to rush it. The Givers kept fucking JHJ and FIFTY up! Is side people blame FIFTY or JHJ but in reality is the Givers.
The fact that it is so expensive and they released a Walmart, Target and Barnes & noble exclusive version on top of the regular version, but I’m assuming they all have the same art book. I heard the picture cards it comes with aren’t normal sized either.
Well both attrakt and Warner are using fifi and their fans for money till the very end while they are both accused of mistreating them but people still think fifty fifty are the greedy ones just because they want financial transparency
He was the one who signed the contract in july AFTER the girls filed their lawsuit. He planned this album. He has a duty to make it marketable. He didn’t. He shouldn’t have signed a contract for this compilation album if he nor his company could deliver under the circumstances he also had ample time to make it more marketable that the shit they threw together and made overpriced.
They really just exploded out on the scene and instead of just riding it out, they ruin their careers welder song also reached that point of saturation where everybody starts to hate it. It's like the worst timing to make such a terrible decision.
Plus, the album has so many repeat songs. Why do I need every remix if Cupid under the sun? If they just put the Korean and English versions, that would have been enough.
I get that the girls are no longer working, but come on, contract or not, that album is the worst cash grab i ever seen. If yall see the full video, there's more than 30 pages of BLANK PAGE. Literally blank page, you can even see the title at the number page said "blank" 😭😭. I think they are more than 1 version but all of them are the same except for the colour. Plus it is 35 usd so that is like so expensive. And i still don't get why people are siding with the company (or companies), like how this is not a scam at all?
See and this is why I can NEVER side with CEO's or companies. They won the lawsuit yet they're still exploiting the girls and milking their success as long as they can.
They're under a contract and how can you get anything better without wasting money on a group that failed? It's not like a whole new photoshoot, production, editing, designing, etc cost millions. They did their best without wasting too much money. And remember, ATTRAKT is a small company. If this was truely for money, there's no way they would've been so blank and cheap. Few hundred dollars is so little for a company.
It would go to the company, most likely, since they claim that 5050 haven't paid their debt. Also, I wouldn't consider $35 cheap for no original content and a total amount of 5 songs without versions.
Yall must be insane. Who would support Fifty fifty? If the idols don't respect and appreciate the ceo, there is no reason the ceo should. Plus, why waste money and time on something that failed? I personally think they were really nice, adding graphics and photos. Yall havr to get into the business world. Fifty Fifty was begging for trash treatment.
What I find is funny is: No one came into work. So how can you get new content? We all knew they weren't at work. But Attrakt entered the contract with Warner in May before the injunction. And then Warner tried to poach the group. Yeah. I'd be just as petty, too. Because not only did you enter a contract with me, that contract was just a cover for you while you moved to poach my group. Sorry the fans had to suffer though while mama and papa were fighting. Enjoy your scrapbook :tearing:
Did fifty fifty release or their company??? Cause that’s two very different things. It’s just that some people are blaming the girls when they literally have no control over this
He stated he signed the contract with warner to make this album in July, that was a whole month after the girls filed their lawsuit. So he knew what he was signing when he put the pen to paper and made it legally binding. he and attrakt had enough time to prepare and make this album sellable and not the absolute shit show it is. no contract obligation excuses the piss poor quality of the entire thing. They clearly used the old photo’s from their past releases, so that isn’t an issue. it’s was just poorly designed and produced.
Where do you get the source😂 you are mistaken bruh 😂😂😂 The project album with Warner already started in April, and fyi the leading team project is the givers 🐍 He basically arranging everything from the concept, photography, etc, but it revealed that he keeps delaying the photoshoot, and when the girls leave the dorm on June 19, the givers also out from the company attrackt 😂😂😂 What can the CEO ATTRACTK did in this of a mess situation?? He need to submit the album to Warner at deadline of July, since it need to be mass produced to fulfill the contract 😢 With no choice, CEO just submitted whatever he can😂 the girls were nowhere to be seen, what is he supposed to do? Making Al images?😂😂😂😂 Please, read the article thoroughly before putting any misinformation 😂
Contracts like that are with the label. If Attrakt doesn't fulfill their obligation, they have to pay fines and additional costs as written into the contract. They're doing it for themselves.
sorry but they fail whit the contract, they are not professional and i understand why even whit the second chance the girls dont go back whit the company.
@@flaggov6949 If it was truely for themselves, there's no way it's gonna be so cheap. Even if it was for their own good, the company deserves it. Lawsuit is lawsuit, money is money, but the ceo lost years of time training and spending money on traitors. He basically made a perfect group with the wrong people, yet people don't support the ceo? If I were that ceo, I'd make that same album two times the price, if it was for money. They are under contract, how else would you state that without making it seem fishy?
Attrat literally answered the question their was a contract in place so they had to release it but they dont have to put effort into ppl suing them duh lol i would of did the bare minimum too
this is stupid. the company benefits more from album sales than the girls. and especially when they put as little money into it as possible. what makes you think this is to the girls benefits😂. how naive.
@@ireneasare9552The CEO opens new audition for a new girl group so basically he gave zero effort for this album because it’s the end of fifty fifty for him. That’s the smartest therory, that’s sad but that make sense…

I think Attrack needed to return all the expenses that they gave to fifty-fifty., those black spaces maybe this is called unfinished album cause of legal issues
Yeah they are under contract? Tell me why the trash attrakt dont do anything about harassing the girls and malicious comments on all social platform? You know the reason why i am mad? So stfu.
It’s not a cash grab he had to release a repackaged album as part of his contract. He no longer has the girls with him so of course he can’t get new photos and new promo material. Also the CEO literally put out a statement about why it was release and you’re calling it a cash grab…
To be honest, I think this is going to be the last album of FITTY FITTY because of the lawsuit…. And now I’m thinking that FITTY FITTY is going to disband quietly I’m guessing but I have never listened to FITTY FITTY new album but they haven’t released any new songs in a while so it’s kind of disappointing…..

@@DVDerrrrThey did not. The court did not vacate their contracts and the girls chose to appeal, so Attrakt would have to choose to disband the group which is unlikely as it could wipe their debt if it's the company's decision.
