I'm sure he's not the only artist who is disgruntled with their label.. Problem with Adam is his contract... RCA can call it quits any time they choose to,Adam can't.Katy Perry and others were able to change labels..
This is not correct. Katy Perry was dropped by Columbia in 2004 and without a major label deal for almost 4 years. I am unaware of any major label contract where the artist is "in the drivers seat." If an artist wants the big major label advance and access to major label distribution and promotion, they have to make trade offs. If an artist wants to take the financial risk, they can get absolute freedom.
I am sure Adam is not totally happy with RCA but it may be the best US label for Adam to be with. They are one of the most liberal, open minded and experimental major label. They gave him creative control. The RCA team also understands how to market pop-rock artists.
Actually, Katy signed with Columbia in 2004 and was dropped in 2006. She signed with Capital the beginning of 2007 and her first album with Capital came out June of 2008. I Kisssed a Girl came out in May of 2008. Her marketing was amazing!

Sorry! Not seeing this. They did give him creative control on the album but then did not release any of his songs for 2 singles. Both of which, from bits & pieces of interviews, were probably not supposed to originally be there.
