After reading some controversial comments by Annie on certain blogs, out of sheer curiosity, I called up some of my journalist friends and people from the music industry to find out the facts behind the matter and here is the truth.
It is said that some two years ago Annie tried to release her new album with The Musik Records, the head of which is Mr. Danish Khawaja, the brother in law of Annie. After listening to the initial album, The Musik rejected the album refusing to release it, let alone invest in it. Once rejected Annie turned to the largest record label of Pakistan, Fire Records. After listening to the album, it is said that Fire also rejected the album.
After turning her down, many established people from the music industry started to call Fire to request them to release the album. After constant chase, Fire agreed to the project but on one condition that the songs that were part of the initial album were so poor that they were not worth releasing thus Fire would produce a fresh new album at its own cost.
