Data Insight
Thirteen tracks and no published writer for any of them, back to the blank of the first three albums. It is his most guest-heavy record and the one most aimed at American radio, and it says nothing about who wrote it.
Blowback came out on Hollywood in July 2001 and sold 95,000 in the United States. Red Hot Chili Peppers, Alanis Morissette, Ed Kowalczyk and Cyndi Lauper all appear on it.
