(ANI):
Popstar
Janet
Jackson
has
parted
ways
with
label
Island
Def
Jam,
just
after
14
months
of
working
together.
After
years
of
working
with
Virgin
label,
Jackson
had
decided
to
work
with
Island
and
signed
a
deal
with
the
label
in
2007.
The
'Rhythm
Nation'
hitmaker
released
her
label
debut,
'Discipline'
earlier
this
year,
but
when
the
album
sales
failed
to
meet
her
expectations
she
expressed
her
dissatisfaction
with
the
label,
reports
China
Daily.
The
popstar
stated
that
the
label
did
not
promote
her
album
well
and
"stopped
all
promotion
whatsoever
on
the
album".
Earlier
this
month,
she
hinted
about
potentially
severing
ties
with
the
label
to
Billboard,
stating,
"I
can't
say
if
we'll
be
working
with
them
in
the
future.
I
don't
know
what
the
future
holds
between
the
two
of
us." The
label
agreed
to
dissolve
its
relationship
with
the
artist
at
her
request
and
the
two
separated
amicably,
confirms
Jackson?s
publicist.
