==Background==
Michelle's debut album 'The Voice Of Me' was set to be released in the US in 2010 but was scrapped for unkown reasons. Later on Michelle attempted to release it in America in early 2010 but due to a busy schedule the album was pulled again despite being available to pre-order online. Then from the very start of recording her second album Michelle said that the album, Exiled, will not be for the American market and instead a new album will be released in America. In late 2011 due to high demand, Michelle decided to release a compilation of her hits in America and create a new album out of that as she had little time to record a full new studio album.
