Why, he's not in the stage of his career to release this. He's releasing this prematurely, this seems like something an established loved artist would release 10-20 years after their peak. This is kind of like Mariah releasing a compilation album of her #1 hits in 1998 when she had only been in the game since 1990.

That was all #1s tho it’s different 

If anyone had 13 #1 singles it would be amazing to have them all compiled in one project together.

The weirdest part is why some of these aren’t even his biggest hits cuz he doesn’t have enough to fill an album yet :ohhh:

She put new songs on it too, I get why she did it though. She had too, to get out of her contract with Sony. I agree, he doesn't have enough hits to fill an album, he should wait maybe 5-10 years and see how many more hits he can pump out, if any

I agree that it's a bit soon. He's only had 6 global smashes, a few global hits and some local hits. A 10-track or 12-track album would've been more appropriate after 8 years.

But I get the decision to make this right in time for the Super Bowl, and I'm thinking of buying it actually.
