I agree with you, but I think there is another factor, like Andrenekoi said. Maybe she doesn't have a lot of things to say for now. I can't recall another pop artist who wrote down her life so intensely through words in 20 years.

First, I think she sees herself as a performer AND a storyteller. She and her team prepare scripts for the shows, based on songs that most of the times rely on telling a story, more than creating an atmosphere (like Utada songs).
