He's finished- aftermath of the lowdown did nothing and that was his big release.14 years and that was the best he could muster. Since then , white trash beautiful , radio trash America , cancelled gigs, sloppy appearances ...a shambles |
Aftermath barely had a chance though. I'm biased because I think it's a great album, but between the band's camp screwing up the leak, the label crumblin, the cancelled tour and being called back for the 2013 band tour, I can't fault Richie for a good chunk of that. I for sure am not saying with proper support and time it could have done better but it barely had a moment.
When he bolted in 2013 one would think work could have resumed on promoting it but crickets. Tho dashing from the band during a tour and going to promote and perform live probably would have looked even worse I guess.
