Chapter 164 I, Little Lowry
Song Ya and the old Mike have confessed their behavior style, he should not do too much, but he is right, he is the most stable without knowing everything.
In late July, the group arrived in New York. After a long period of thinking and discussions with Hayden, Donovan and others, Song Ya finally decided to give up releasing an EP (mini album).
"I'm somewhere between A-list and B-list right now."
In a meeting with the senior executives of Sony Columbia Records, Song Ya said: "Issuing EP will not help my promotion. Only a successful album can help me stand on the A-list, so any possibility will bring me a boost in the sales of my first album." I will not consider any risky operation.”
"A very calm judgment."
At the top of the big conference table, Motura also agreed, "Actually, I also have the same idea, but you know that APLUS, this kind of suggestion that may bring you short-term heavy monetary losses, is inconvenient for me to say."
"You don't have to be so Mr. Motura, any suggestion from you is very valuable to me." Song Ya flattered me a little.
"so……"
After discussing the announcement of several singles for a while, Motura stood up and looked at everyone, "The meeting is over?"
Everyone got up one after another, "The company has been very busy recently, and your decision has saved us a lot of trouble." Motula said to Song Ya in a hurry.
"I know, and I will try my best to cooperate." Song Ya knew that what Sony Columbia values most now is MJ's new album and Mariah Carey's second album.
"Well, let's talk later." Motura nodded and left.
After leaving the Sony Columbia Records headquarters, Song Ya came to the penthouse in New York, and the renovation was not over yet.
"Have you seen Old Mike's modification plan?" Song Ya asked the designer.
"You see, we have already reserved space for security equipment, and only need a small change." The designer said in embarrassment: "Are you satisfied with other places?"
"Basically satisfied, the pool could be a little deeper..."
The designer laughed, and Song Ya was just talking.
In the evening, a Japanese restaurant reopened after a long-suspended dinner party.
"We have a great influence in Benzi,
Whether it is MJ or Miss Kelly, the audience of this book likes it very much. "They also have a lot of buying power," said David Cole. "
"Of course, your company is owned by Sony, so it doesn't have much influence." Song Ya complained secretly.
Mariah Carey sniffed the sake in the glass, then tilted her neck decisively and poured it into her mouth, and took a sip, "APLUS, are you really not going to release an EP?"
Song Ya picked up the Japanese-style porcelain bottle and filled it up for her, "It won't be released, but I'm a man who wants to climb the A-list."
"Wow." Mariah Carey clapped her hands jokingly, "Well then, good luck with your album."
"Thank you." Song Ya poured wine for others.
"Shakira." It was Roberto Clivell's turn, and he was still thinking about what happened last time.
Song Ya raised her hands, "I surrender, Roberto, next time, I will never forget your girl next time."
"Not 'my' girl, where are you thinking?"
Roberto Klevel said: "I just have a good relationship with a colleague from the South American branch. He is very optimistic about the girl, but the girl is not so patient. It is a pity that she is about to give up her music career."
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that, APLUS, have you listened to Lowry's second album?" Walter asked.
"Ahem..."
Song Ya choked on the wine when he heard the news, "Has he issued the bill? I haven't heard any news."
"Just posted it yesterday." Walter took out a CD player from his bag and handed it over.
"Hey, you're such a disappointment, Walter, do you have to talk about work during dinner?" Mariah Carey protested immediately.
Song Ya took advantage of them to start coaxing Mariah Carey, put on the headphones and started listening, "What's the matter with this accompaniment?" I, Little Lowry's single is a very good study of Remember The Name. Although the accompaniment music is different from Remember The Name, the rhythm is also strong and lively. Little Lowry's rap skills and lyrics have also improved a lot.
It seems that in the second half of the year, Remember The Name's follow-up works will start to go on the market one after another, but I didn't expect Lowry to fire the first shot.
And that's not all, "Chicago, Chicago, Chicago, Chicago... Rap God, Rap God, Rap God, Rap God..."
In the background sound of the accompaniment in the intermission, a rapper kept chanting these two words along with the rhythm.
"Chicago's rapper king, with an M1911 on his waist, whoever dares to be rampant in front of me, I will raise the gun in my hand without hesitation... Shoot! Shoot! M-FXXK Shoot! Shoot! The FBI can't catch me M-FXXKKKKK Shoot!"
Lowry Jr. sang this passage very "crazily". The word "Shoot" added the harmony of human voice and gunshot, which is very impactful, probably because he has a special "life".
"WTH..." Song Ya took off the earphones, "Is he also trying to learn N.W.A and be banned?"
"It's not necessarily a bad thing." Walter said with a smile, "You know more about it than I do, don't you?"
"Um."
Song Ya thought about it calmly. Indeed, although the sales of the rapper's record were banned in a short period of time, it was very helpful to improve the singer's reputation among the audience and the "historical evaluation" in the future, not to mention the fact that Lowry was in the The song also frequently takes the title of Chicago Rapper King or God to himself...
He discovered a problem. Little Lowry made his debut earlier than himself, because of the second-hand store, and his music performance is not bad, the time is still earlier than himself, and he has the experience of running errands for him, although he will not say that publicly , but gossip black DJs will dig it out, this is a fact, and I can't get rid of public relations...
Therefore, judging from the "ethics" of gangsta rap, I am afraid that Little Lowry will always dominate himself in the future. It has nothing to do with record sales or whether the singer is popular or not. This is the gang's rules.
According to the IQ of Little Lowry or Pablo, it is estimated that the scale of the lyrics cannot be grasped so accurately, but they rely on the old Atlantic Records, and there are still experts in record production and publicity.
After the dinner, he and Taraji were taken to the hotel by old Mike.
"The advantages of the time traveler are quickly learned by people of this era..."
The song bothered him a little, and he couldn't fall asleep in the hotel bed for a long time, so he had to turn on the radio.
Unexpectedly, this song by Little Lowry was also being played on the radio.
"A very fierce rap song, from Little Lowry, everyone still remembers his second-hand store last year..." The black DJ is bragging, "Tell me something about Chicago, maybe you don't know, APLUS is in Before he became famous, he worked as a servant for Little Lowry, he..."
Song Ya reached for the switch key and was about to turn off the radio.
"Wait, wait! I just got a single from Escube, uh... no packaging, it seems like it won't be officially released, haha, this kid's recent box office is big Boom, can he finally take it? N.W.A has scolded him enough before, and I think it's time for him to fight back. Okay, let's listen to this No Vaseline, from Escube, please pay attention, I've never heard this song before, so I'm just as unprepared as you guys for what's going to happen in the lyrics..."
