...are we sure the hold up is deliberate? Richie is a passionate artist and gifted songwriter, but we also know he seems to be super unfocused. Much like he struggles to coordinate a band, sing and shred live, he seems to be all over the place in terms of actually finishing records. He posted that Tommy Lee features how many years ago? Did _he_ even post it? It all seems disorganized.

Jon is certainly the one who has a more "enough bickering around" mindset, which gave us the whole What About Now fiasco. But without a JBJ character, Richie seems to dick around endlessly. Yeah, there's probably a record worth of songs at this point, but like others have said, he left 10 years ago. He released the RSO record, and that one was just a mess as well. Couldn't even find it on Spotify early on. Wouldn't have had a clue it exists if it wasn't for this board.

I seriously doubt that this is all just tactics.

This!

And furthermore to me Richie has lots of overestimation of his own capabilities. I have the impression he thinks the world is just waiting for him to release new music, his latest statement of "not being able to write bad songs anymore" is just embarassing. I used to be a big Richie fan right from the beginning. But since he left the band he started to make himself bigger than he is. At first I thought it was because of hurt feelings and to make himself look better than Jon at that time. But unfortunately he didn't stop with that behaviour so far. I already said that in another thread a couple of years ago: Richie has developed to the David Hasselhoff of music. Acting like his next big hit is just around the corner but at the same time couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery!

Richie is battling with his addiction problems again so could explain the delay.

Probably, they never left him.

Is there a source for that info? I haven't come across any recent articles or anything mentioning his addiction problems.

You know you can't say stuff like that without backing it up, right? If your right its one thing but you can't just..assume if you're not.

Sounds like he's just trolling to me. Or they got lost on the way to the JBJ Experience. It's pretty clear from everything we've seen recently that Richie is doing well.

I love all the snipets he released last year, I want to hear it all, I hope this songs make the album and it doesn't get written off as Our Secret Place.
