I was laughing half way through it. I think that you could've had more fun with it if you would've left off the disclaimer.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very talent that I showcase, then questions the manner in which I promote it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you dedicate yourself to Alizee mind, body and soul!. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!"

Yikes!

-No Edgar93, this is not real
-Yes I was bored
-I hope this made some people laugh

The bottomline in every business is: 'Show me the money'. It doesn't matter how talented or beautiful, all the music executives want to know is how much money can this person make for us?

It's a harsh truth but a truth just the same. If she isn't making money for RCA then they will drop her like a hot rock.

Interesting. Care to expand on this? What is this "proper focus" you have in mind? I'm curious.


Response to my answer? I'm always open to new ideas.

And I have enough belief and faith in her talent to be snapped up by another record label soon enough!

She did. RCA died and now she's under Jive/Epic (also under Sony) or so the accepted fan forum understanding goes.
