Chapter 467 Daniel's Return

At the moment, the hottest hip-hop song is whoomp! The tagteam combination from Miami ranked third on the billboard, and the songs from the new album of Derry and Escube were in the second echelon.

"West Coast rap has clearly overshadowed the East Coast, and now Southern rap is on the rise."

Easily snatched the two original singers of whereisthelove from Big E. Song Ya plans to go back to Chicago to chat with them. Before that, he wants to meet Daniel who just came from Neverland. "Whoomp! This song is very popular in the South now." Red, it will be played in many competitions, and the popularity is not inferior to that of yours back then, but fortunately, we have a nas at Sony Columbia Records."

In a French restaurant in Los Angeles, the two chatted while eating, "Jodeci's strong single lately ranked No. 3 on the Billboard not long ago, and it is still No. 10." Song Ya hinted.

"Their style is more R&B." Daniel pretended not to hear it.

"Let me make it clear, jodeci is my hidden danger Daniel."

Song Ya didn't want to be fooled by him, "Everyone knows the relationship between Jodeci and Puff Daddy, and they even asked that er who was shot several times in the nightclub shooting in Harlem to contribute his voice in the new album, helping Puff Daddy Bad Boys Records promoted him to make his debut. K-ci’s death made them gain sympathy from many fans, and the remaining three and k-ci’s ex-girlfriend Mary Blige became more and more popular. These are all bad news for me. Although k-ci's death has nothing to do with me."

"Don't worry, the Uptown Records they are in is a label owned by MCA. I have a good relationship with MCA. I can guarantee that at least they won't target you during Uptown Records. Besides, they rarely mention you, right? ?”

Daniel had no choice but to answer positively, "This state is completely acceptable to you now. They have been blaming Little Lowry in the prison, and Puff Daddy is also very restrained."

"I understand their temper. Sooner or later they will target me after being popular. The reason why they stepped on Little Lowry and not on me is that I am still very popular, and they have not figured out the real relationship between me and the gang."

Just letting Tony and the others pretend to be Hell Bobcats easily bullied Big E, but Song Ya will never have an illusion because of this incident, and he still wants to go all the way to law school, and he will never have any real ties to the gang , "For me, it is absolutely unacceptable that they are more popular than me, otherwise the big mouths of black singers can say nothing."

"You want me to suppress them?" Daniel asked.

"They must be unaware." Song Ya didn't give the other party a choice. As MJ said, when a group of children are gathered together, someone will always use some small means to make themselves the king of children. This is not the case in the 90s At the dinner table, Daniel took the prominent position of president of Sony Columbia Records entirely by himself, and the relationship between the two changed.

"I'll do it, but it's not a priority right now, is it?"

Daniel replied: "Mariah Carey's new album will be released soon, I must prioritize her resources, and I must also be busy fighting with Motura, who is still the chairman of Sony Columbia Records, I'm not at all easy now. MJ has trouble too..."

"Can't you tell me about MJ's troubles?" Song Ya has a lot of opinions on him on this point, and it is very uncomfortable to hide the news from herself as soon as she took the position of president.

"No, it's a big or small trouble, but it's related to MJ's **. Although MJ's manager is still Motura, he is undoubtedly the top priority of the company."

Daniel replied: "Oh, by the way, I passed on Aaron Grubman's question to him, and he said he knew it, but how he will deal with that person in the future is his own business, and I can't do anything about it."

"Okay." Song Ya wiped her mouth with a napkin and threw it on the table.

"But there's something I can do right away."

Daniel winked at him, "Kick Russell Simmons off Sony Columbia Records.

"

"oh?"

Song Ya immediately became interested. He and Quincy Jones, two old guys, were not pleasing to the eye. "What are you going to do?"

"He and a lot of executives helped Motura jump up and down against us some time ago, and now I plan to use him as a target." Daniel bared his fangs, "Remove defjam from Sony Columbia Records' label, and remove him from defjam records The position of the boss is kicked out, who told him to run the record company with huge losses year after year, and he has become my best target."

"ha!"

Song Yale was so excited, he had long dreamed that this guy would have this day, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

"If you want to help, there is a chance to make a fortune."

Daniel took a sip of his wine, "After I started to deal with Defjam, the company's value will inevitably plummet. I can introduce some shareholders to you, and even let you get the shares in the hands of Russell Simmons."

"Let me take over?" Song Ya frowned.

"That's right, but that plate is good. defjam is the most successful hip-hop label in the 1980s. In the hip-hop circle that is very particular about seniority, its status is almost similar to that of Motown Records to black music in the 1970s and 1980s. Their hands alone The value of the copyright of the songs in it will definitely exceed your purchase price, and it will greatly increase your influence in the hip-hop music circle and various hip-hop awards. Think about it, like Paul McCartney singing his own songs, he has to ask Just like MJ pays, in the future, veteran hip-hop singers will also have to pay you for singing their own songs."

Daniel said it very bluntly, and obviously wanted to use this to repay himself. Of course, doing this would also help him establish a reputation within Sony Columbia Records.

"How does it work?"

"Sony Columbia Records owns 50 percent of defjam..."

Daniel gave a rough outline of his plan.

"That is to say, I have to prepare at least five million yuan to win 18% of this company?" Song Ya estimated according to this plan.

"That's defjam," Daniel said. "You're almost picking up money."

"You also said that it has suffered huge losses year after year." Song Ya hesitated.

"The fundamentals are good, they have a lot of talented producers and singers under their belt." Daniel said: "If I didn't hate Russell Simmons like you, I wouldn't have kicked them out of Sony Columbia Records at all, and now I'm doing it. against the interests of the company."

"Then you have to settle the income of my first album with Fergie in advance, otherwise I won't be able to raise that much money." Song Ya's current liquidity is only five million, "And Fergie has been urging me, she wants to be in Buying a house in Los Angeles."

"Okay." It's a trivial matter for Daniel to have the authority of the president, "Let your accountant come to the headquarters, is it Song Asheng?"

"Yongdao has been helping me with my record business for a long time."

Daniel has only been president for a short time, and it seems that he hasn't had time to fully understand the operation of the company.

"Very smart configuration." Daniel praised.

The two chatted about the follow-up cooperation. For a record, Al's first album is scheduled to be released in August, and next year there will be a new album by Comon and the original soundtrack of Dancing My Life.

Without the constraints of Motura, Song Ya now doesn't have to worry about being stuck by Sony Columbia Records. In order to achieve this, Song Ya also promised the capital to modify the record contract between herself and A Records. Five years plus one special, the newly added special is new songs plus best selections.

"The plans for the defjam must be kept secret, otherwise it will embarrass me."

"Don't worry, my mouth is very strict, you know."

After eating, he said goodbye to Daniel. He didn't expect Daniel to repay him forever, but the honeymoon period between the two should last for a long time.

In any case, Daniel being the president is much better than Motura, for him.

As for whether Sony Columbia Records will go downhill in the internal struggle between Daniel and Motura, it is hard to say, but how much does that have to do with me?

Sitting in the car, he happily asked Linda to call Fergie who was anxiously waiting for money.
