EMI Records are currently discussing the �best date� to button Lily Allen's second record album, 'Stuck on the Naughty Step', according to industry sources.
Allen had expressed her concern over the delay behind the album, which she delivered to record bosses earlier in the summer.
In a post on her Myspace blog, she blamed the instability caused after the label's recent acquisition by private equity company Terra Firma.
"The record industry is a very political position at the moment and I am on EMI records, gobs of people have been fired or have taken redundancy late,� she wrote.
Responding to the singer's comments, a source for EMI told Music Week: �We�re unrestrained about the music we�ve heard and everyone�s now discussing the best date for the release of the record.�
Allen has already previewed a number of songs from the album on her website.
Speaking around the near recent addition, 'Who'd Of Known', she said it wouldn't make the record because its chorus resembles a Take That song.
