Chapter 237: Grammy
In 1992, Sony Columbia Records started the year extremely well, King MJ, Michael Burton, diva Maria Carey, French diva Celine Dion and Song Ya and other records all sold well, with a good vote of its label, there is also the treasure of the old diva Barbra Streisand at home, some media predict that this year's Billboard chart will enter the era of Sony Columbia Records and her own family to compete for the first place.
Motula's power seemed unshakable, and he didn't come to the award ceremony to prepare a celebratory dinner at the hotel.
"You go first, I'll talk to old friends in Los Angeles."
Song Ya waved goodbye to Mariah Carey in the car, and when the award ceremony ended, he was intercepted by Big E. A got a nomination this year, but didn't win the award.
"Hey APLUS bro, this year's joint publicity continues?"
The ghost is just a bunch of miscellaneous fish left. A continued to co-promote, "Uh, big E, let's go talk about it." Song Ya looked at a bunch of unfamiliar faces behind Big E, and in order to save some face for him, he pulled him to a suitable place to speak, "I'm sorry, Big E, you're out." ”
"Hey! Boy, your M-FXXK is changing your face so quickly. Big E scolded.
Old Mike, who was not far away, looked over.
"It's none of my business, I respect you, but this year I'm going to do a joint promotion with Dre's death row records, because they don't want to bring you." Song Ya explained.
“FXXKYOU!” Big E has a great brittle voice, but his big mouth hurts him, and he shouldn't have revealed that he was pointed at the head by Sugnette of the Blood Gang, and he was forced to sign the termination contract of Dre and Snoop Dogg and others out of desperation. In the world of gangster rap, this does not help to gain sympathy at all, and then everyone sees through the nature of his 'little role', first greedy for money to make Escubber, Dre and other old brothers run away one after another, and then scared out by Sugnet's gunman, and now no one in the rap circle will buy his account.
"Say whatever you want." Song Ya tilted his head towards Old Mike.
"Please." Old Mike came over and drove the scolding big E away.
"Will he be bad for you? In Los Angeles. ”
The group sat on the rented extended Lincoln, and Taragi asked with some concern, the battle of the gangsters in the new .A gang is also quite capable of bluffing.
"He didn't dare."
Song Ya is very sure, Da E Danfan is a little bloody and has already done it with Sugnette, and some people around him have begun to jump back to sue ruthless records, celebrities are like this, once they are discovered by the people around them and start to decline, these former close lawyers, agents, bodyguards, etc. may choose to quietly make a big deal on you, and then leave your wrecked ship that is about to sink.
"What's MJ's single coming to be released at the end of the month?"
Now he only prays that MJ will stop sending strong orders like Remember the Time and Black or White, i hate u i love u has been pressed and can't send it out very badly, it's been delayed for half a year, Phigi loses his temper at home from time to time about this, and he can understand Beckie's anxiety.
"Who Is It, the 31st MV and the single synchronization ceiling." Taragi flipped through the notepad: "Then he won't release any more singles for a while, and there will be a series of media appearances and charity campaigns." ”
Arriving at the hotel's banquet hall, "Hey APLUS, you're late, here." ”
In the hall, it seemed that Motura had just finished his speech and the crowd was dispersing, and Walter beckoned Song Ya over and introduced him to Michael Burton and Kelly King, who had worked together on a single by Michael Burton and had a good relationship.
For singers, if there is no cooperation, the chances of meeting in the record company are very low, and Song Ya took this opportunity to also start to expand his network, Michael Burton is a little arrogant, and Kelly Kim is much more approachable.
"So, your album will be released in the first half of the year, right? APLUS。 ”
Kelly Kim asked, "I've heard that a lot of male singers aren't planning to crash with your debutant. ”
"Really?" Song Ya didn't expect that he also had a little deterrent, "It's hard to say, the specific date has not been set yet, but I do hope to be able to get this done in the first half of the year, it will drag on for too long." ”
He had a nice chat with Kelly Kim, "You know what? I used to fantasize that you could play the saxophone part of a second-hand store, but unfortunately I was just a penniless minor character at the time. ”
"Haha, there will be a chance to cooperate." Kelly Kim accepted the compliment with a smile.
"What are you talking about?" After Michael Burton made an excuse to leave, Maria Carey came over with a glass of wine and stood next to Songya.
"APLUS's new album, there are still two songs missing, right?" Walter asked, "If you can't write it yourself, you can take the initiative to invite others to sing, and believe me, at this time, a lot of creative people are willing to send the lyrics and songs to your office." ”
"Wait a minute, I don't plan to invite songs for the time being." Song Ya smiled and coped with the past.
Saa Magni of the New Apocalypse is a song with too strong African original style, he can't sing it himself, and he can't think of anyone he knows is suitable to sing this, the tonality of the song should not be in line with the current appreciation taste of the American people, or those who like it will like it very much, but most people will scoff at it.
Therefore, at present, he still owes two songs for his first album.
Suddenly, there was a slight pain in her foot, and Mariah Carey quietly stepped on her foot with the tip of her high heel, glancing at the other person's face, and she was chatting with Walt about the MTV unplugged concert in March.
"Ahem......"
Song Ya looked around the banquet hall like a thief, and didn't see Motula, but found Sandy Gren, an observant old GAY, fortunately, he was being surrounded by people and talking, so he shouldn't have noticed this.
"I'm starving, go get something to eat, miss me." Silently, he pulled back his feet and walked towards the cold food counter.
"I'm going to get some food too." Mariah Kelly followed.
Song Ya just picked up the plate, Mariah Carey thoughtfully picked up a small sandwich and put it on the plate, "This is delicious, it's Alaskan cod, I just ate one, and this ......" She picked up another rice-style sushi.
"I'll do it myself." Song Ya popped out a few words from between his teeth, stopping the other party's overly affectionate behavior, and he whispered to him what he had noticed last time Sandy Gren looked at her from the way he looked at her, "You're not acting normally now, Mimi." ”
"Really? I didn't feel it at all...... "Mary Carey was also surprised, "I thought I was well disguised." ”
"Disguise what?" A black voice came from behind her.
"Ahh Her dolphin voice was startled, attracting the surprised eyes of many in the hall.
"Mr. Simmons." It was Russell Simmons, Song Ya knew that the other party was looking for him, and Def Jam Records, as a label owned by Sony Columbia Records, came to this dinner party as a matter of course.
"Let's talk." Mariah Carey fled in a hurry.
"Congratulations on winning the AMA Award." Russell Simmons sneered, "But the Grammys don't rely on the number of fans." ”
"So you're not happy to see me get a Grammy?" Song Ya was-for-tat.
"Me? I think you deserve a Grammy, but Best Rapper of the Year? Sorry, I think you're missing something. The other party raised his glass towards Song Ya, "Maybe two years will be a good time." ”
"Maybe."
There are only two RAP awards, and Song Ya didn't expect to be able to make it, "What about the best single of the year?" I was also shortlisted for Miss Kelly's Empire State of Mind, and the AMA has always been called a Grammy vane, so I guess you don't have a personal opinion about Miss Kelly from the same company, right? ”
"Of course not." Russell Simmons drank the wine from his glass, "We'll see you at the Grammys." ”
"See you Grammy."
