Top 5 Artists Who Take Long Breaks Between Albums

Here I go again with another Top 5 list. These lists are created solely by me. Today I decided to take a look at artists who make us wait forever in between albums. You know those waits can be excruciating. I mean anyone should appreciate an artist taking their time on their record. Sometimes though personal hardships, numerous setbacks, and perfection takes precedence over everything. If you are wondering how this list was put together, let me explain. I took a look at artists who take long breaks in between full-length[new material]records. I excluded any type of compilations such as "best of" or "live" recordings. Check out the list below!

1. Lauryn Hill
There have been rumors over the last decade that Lauryn has been recording a new album. While she has been a fixture on the tour circuit, a new album has yet to materialize.
Time between albums: 10 years and counting

2. D'Angelo
His personal problems[weight gain, alcoholism]have taken precedence over his music career. It was recently announced that D'Angelo will release a new album through J Records. When can we expect that album? With D'Angelo's track record there is no telling.
Time between albums: 8 years and counting

3. Maxwell
His oft-delayed album, "Black Summers Night" has yet to see the light of day. There have been numerous rumors[including some questionable subject matter]regarding the album's setback. Though Maxwell frequently hits up his MySpace page updating fans nothing is set in stone.
Time between albums: 7 years and counting

4. Michael Jackson
In recent years, Michael Jackson's personal live has overshadowed his music career. Now free of any scandal, Jackson is hard at work on an album to possibly feature Ne-Yo, Will.I.Am, and Akon.
Time between albums: 7 years

5. Sade
This R&B goddess makes sure her albums are worth the 7 year[s] wait. Sade is definitely long overdue for a new studio album.
Time between albums: 7 years
