“’You’ll never recoup the amount of money we’ve put into you,'” she remembered what her label had told her, according to Page Six.

“It wasn’t my choice to have Scott Storch or all these producers that [cost] a million dollars a track. I didn’t control those budgets. We were just yes-people. And in saying yes to everything, I lost it all,” she elaborated in her July 2023 cover story with Bustle.
