Its amazing how marketing works I know this generation, which i label the Marketing generation, mostly because your talent can only get u so far, its all about your PR team. And NO it wasnt always like this, give me a break, I love people who say "It was always this way". 3 great Examples of How people will use antyhing to market themselves. First up lets take Tom Cruise, how interesting that his Baby is born right before his Movie opens, if U believe that wasnt set up then U must believe that Tom is straight. Second would have to be Nick Lachey, now i actually like this guy as a person, but using your divorce, and a Ballad, to market your new record is a little strange, especially when u say ure trying to keep your private life hidden now. And third would have to be Mariah, once again, I love Mariah, but its so funny how EVERYONE even her label (Def Jam) was writing her off, and now, she has no trouble getting airplay, no trouble getting video time, Pepsi just bought her for some new Ads, and her tour is getting Major backing something her Charmbracelet tour didnt get. And dont tell me thats because MIMI was a Good Record, it has nothing to do with good or bad and we know that.

And its getting so easy to predict everything too, U know that when BRITNEY decides to put out a new record it will probably center around her divorce (if it happens) or its going to be some sort of well calculated plan, im sure Britney will hit the gym, lose the extra pounds, Sex it up for a Video, bring in some "Hip" producer or artist to Collab with, go on Oprah or one of those shows, and BOOM number one debut! Now once again, I know that its all about PR these days and all artists do it, but there is a Big difference by backing up your MUSIC with MUSIC TALENT, and not what U do behind closed doors, or who U are sleeping with, or not sleeping with anymore.

I don't want to get too DEEP here but this is a small but important factor in why America is asleep at the wheel. I'lll leave it at that. | |
