That's my opinion xD
But I hope it will be of course.

I know that, I've always been thinking that way, just like you.
I was not implying here that Jolin's -or Elva's for that matter- upcoming album would necessarily be awesome. That's why I said, just like you did, "I'd rather have 1
nice or great album than...". I guess I didn't explain myself that well :/

I noticed I never posted the info provided by one article back in January:
It was about the fact that fans were disappointed and calling Elva "a liar" because her new album wasn't released at the end of 2017 like she promised.
It says that Elva's new album will be released after Lunar New Year (CNY, February 16th). A new Tour is also coming in the second half of the year (confirmed by the news I posted about a concert coming in Beijing in June), the first one in 8 (!) years.
Elva's new album was supposed to be released in the last week of December (a bit of a commercial "suicide" since JJ Lin was also releasing a new album at that moment...).
Elva flew to LA for half a month at the end of November to take dance lessons (and learn a choreography). But she realized afterwards that the choreography was impossible to perform in the outfit(s) she was supposed to wear in the title song MV if I understood well. As a consequence Elva had to change her plans and postpone the MV shooting scheduled for December.
Elva was very demanding on the MV script and had many meetings with her team. But the director they hired was very busy, so by the time they were ready, he couldn't shoot the MV. So the album's release had to be postponed to January.
But her staff thought that releasing an album in January was risky since CNY was coming, everyone would be talking about it and no one would notice Elva's new album. So Elva's new album release has been postponed once again to after Chinese New Year.
Last year she refused several events including a new Year's Eve performance to focus on her album, she lost more than 1 million euros or 1,7 million dollars according to the article.
