Not even these days, Im sure 99% of music release was hit or miss back then too.

>But hey... I listened to FutureSex/LoveSounds only once too.

I don't see what's the big deal with FuturSex/LoveSounds too. Of course it wasn't total garbage and I wouldn't say that it was bad either but I've never felt the need to listen to that album again after 1st listen (I went back to a couple of songs though)

I don't think he's being dishonest though, his music really fits his public figure.
