User:Guilty Album History

Guilty is the sixth studio album by British boyband JLS. It was the group's last album to feature original member Lee Ryan, as he left on March 1st 2009. It was also their last album on the Island Records label. It was released in the UK on September 8th 2008, where it became their sixth consecutive studio album to debut at #1 in the UK and Ireland.

In total, five singles were released from the album. "Guilty" (UK #2), Stevie Wonder and Angie Stone collaboration "Signed, Sealed, Delived" (UK #1), "Breathe Easy" (UK #1). The final two singles were a double-A side single, "Bubblin'" and "Curtain Falls" (UK #4). The album has sold 600,000 copies in the UK, earning it double platinum certification.

Unlike on previous albums, all members were not credited for writing the album. This was due to Lee Ryan's uninterested attitude towards the album. Of the decision, member Marvin Hulmes said "Normally, if two members write a song, everyone gets a credit but on this album we decided we weren't going to do that. Lee couldn't be bothered to turn up to sessions so he didn't get any writing credits on the album."
