Why was Styles P really shelved?

His shit was one of the only cd's I was waiting for to come out. His first single was raw! But i barely heard it anywhere. It could be just lack of hype that killed it, but listening to some of the advance it seems like interscope might not have liked where he was taking things... Which coincidentaly seemed like it was leaning in a very pro black direction. Perhaps its just the overly liberal white guy in me that wants to call that shit out, but it does sort of smell fishy. FOr those of you that dont have it, heres a couple of tracks from the advance that i personally celebrate. http://s47.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3KYYPMOKF6XVQ10S30FFXAU7XY http://s47.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=159DLWN4TSZ0T3ERAZYJJPZL8X The fact is Styles is WAY better than jadakiss and his album deserves to be out.

But still....Styles is raw!
I think perhaps it was that the single never caught on?
I saw new posters advertising it as recently as last week, although they didn't have a release date.
The single is Im black right? Cause I could see that song being huge.
Mabye it still could be. Shit works weird like that these days.
Heres another one. I guess Miri Bin Ari produced it. If So..
It (the LP) really sucked. And the way they engineered the strings... ouch
Uh, right... well as a whole... No. They were all really weak. Styles wasn't ever really ground breaking.. and the tracks on this album are pretty generic and boring.
