"It is said that 2PAC was shot five times, but some people suspect that he directed and acted himself, and his purpose was nothing more than to escape being held in an ordinary cell, otherwise it would be too exaggerated for him to be able to go to court in a wheelchair and conscious today."

Linda said as she watched the TV in a wheelchair and with a bandage on her body.

David Cole was behind the scenes of the music industry, and there was little reaction to his death.

Big E is different, he is the founder of the famous NWA, a veteran of the gang rap industry, but unfortunately, his ruthless record has already become a mess after experiencing the internal strife and departure of the backbone such as Escubber and Drew, and the action power is almost equal to zero, and the commemorative album or anything is not at all.

Big E's own brothers' money has long been confirmed under the high-intensity attacks of Escubber and Drey, and the past reputation has also disappeared because of Sugnet's gunpoint coercion, and now people generally have a negative view of people infected with HIV who live inappropriately and self-inflicted, so there are few other sympathizers for his death, in addition to insisting on the die-hard loyalty of Fan NWA.

And the Interscope records and death row records behind 2PAC are all good hype, 2PAC is very popular now, and the first single of the second album "Dear Mother" has just been released, and it has been well received in the industry. The bizarre shooting immediately caused an uproar in the black circles at the bottom, the East and West Coasts have been fighting each other for almost a year, the West Coast's signature hip-hop singer has fallen downstairs in the East Coast Records studio, and Death Row Records and Bad Boy Records are old enemies......

Now there is all speculation outside, but at present, the New York police still choose to take robbery as the main direction of detection.

Song Ya looked at the cover sample of the commemorative album of Little Lowry, and scratched her head a little helplessly, Little Lowry ...... He was still not popular enough, or the time he was popular was too short, and he passed too quickly to make a deep impression on people, and his death immediately became insignificant after the breaking news of Big E and 2PAC.

I didn't expect that I would have to worry about him not being popular enough, which is also ironic.

"It's better to release it as soon as possible, even if the impact is not as expected, but ...... Mosquito meat is also meat. ”

This commemorative album of sixteen songs will be jointly released by Atlantic Records and EMI Records, and Lori Jr.'s first album shared by EMI and A+ Records was probably selected for three songs, and the other twelve came to Atlantic Records, Lori Jr.'s two singles were selected for four, and he prepared four songs for the third album at Atlantic Records' 33 Block Records, plus four posthumous songs written in prison, that is, four new songs that have not yet been released. The last song is one of the first songs that Al was dropped by Old Joe that year, he sang it with Little Lowry, and this song is now all A+ records.

Since Barron had taken all of the original material from prison before Atlantic Records, A+ Records was responsible for remixing one of the four songs, with Al participating in the remix of one of the choral and receiving a portion of the production proceeds.

Although only three songs were selected for the first album, it included the most important song, the second-hand store, and in the negotiations of the three record companies, everyone agreed that this song enjoyed the highest share ratio.

In order to catch up with the popularity, after a series of extremely complex tripartite negotiations, A+ Records won 30% of the production proceeds of the commemorative album, Barron's newly established estate disposal fund enjoyed the royalties of Lowry Jr.'s lyrics, composition and singers, and Song Ya herself was still able to get the royalties of the songwriting books from the second-hand store.

Of course, the final book profit of the commemorative album, that is, the part that will be donated out, will not be much left, and the money will be used by everyone into the production and distribution costs, for example, A+ Records will increase the studio rental fees and labor costs required for remixing, and the income will probably be enough to maintain the operating expenses of A+ Records for a period of time, and the operating methods of the other two should not be much different.

"Focus on the warm-up of my second single, Dead And Gone."

Dead And Gone has also been produced and is being submitted to Sony Columbia Records for internal discussion, and Daniel should now be in a meeting with the people in the distribution department, who love the song.

"Daniel suggested that you open a few concert tours at the end of this year to test the waters, just in time for the second special announcement, you see?" Linda asked.

"Let's think about this in the middle of the year."

Song Ya thought about it, the year before last, Mariah Carey's tour was mediocre, and there was a mistake in the first show in Miami, "I don't like the acting company that ran Mimi's 93 concerts, but Sony Columbia Records likes to use it very much, you can say hello to Daniel when the time comes." ”

"Okay." Linda jotted it down, "What about the cover?" ”

Song Ya looked at the sample in his hand again, the cover was a standard photo of Xiao Lori wearing an orange prison uniform and a height scale on the back before he was imprisoned, after some post-processing, Xiao Lori stared at the camera with unwilling eyes, and now, that is, looking directly at himself.

"Just use this."

Song Ya casually flipped over the sample and threw it on the table with its back facing up.

Chicago, the pre-release of Lowry Jr.'s commemorative album has begun, and Big A Radio has also received a generous promotion fee, "Little Lowry, my brother, I still remember a ...... before"

Big A felt nostalgic in front of the microphone, but this time it was mostly sincere, "Al, do you remember?" When he lived in the lakeside villa in the north of the city. ”

"Fxxk, I had already fallen out with him by then." Al smiled wryly.

"Oh, yes, yes, but seriously, it's a bit of a shame that he doesn't go to the party there, he's a generous guy and he's willing to share anything with his brothers." Big A said.

Al didn't pick up.

"Hey, stop dwelling on El, you're still holding a grudge against the past?"

Big A pushed Al beside him, "Everyone else is gone." ”

"I miss him a lot, but only before his first album was released, and everything after that has changed and changed too quickly."

AL, WHO IS NOW A REGULAR GUEST ON LOCAL CHICAGO RADIO AND MUSIC SHOWS, HAS DEVELOPED HIS ABILITY TO SPEAK, "I DON'T WANT TO BE TOO HYPOCRITICAL, YOU KNOW, WHEN PEOPLE DIE, EVERYONE STARTS TALKING ABOUT HOW NICE THIS GUY IS...... I don't want that. He was a real bastard most of the time, and when he first became popular, he caused trouble everywhere, and ended up playing himself in prison and hanging up in it......"

"I hate him, but I love him too, and I think back to those old days, when I was looking for work in Chicago's restaurants, fast food restaurants, and I didn't have a place to live, and when Old Joe Music first met him, he said, 'Hey, Al, go to me, you can sleep on the couch.'" I was very touched because there were a lot of people there at the time, and he was the only one who noticed the big duffel bag I had quietly put in the corner, and there was everything in it, and I was going to sleep on the sofa in the studio......"

"Haha, huh? So don't dwell on the old grudges Al, there's a song you collaborated with on this new commemorative album, right? "Big A pushes up the volume of the background music, and it's that song.

"yes, bangbang...... Haha, this drum is my onomatopoeia, I'm a connoisseur. Al commented.

"It's all we remember of little Lowry." Big A began to sell feelings without a trace, the focus of the promotion of this kind of record is feelings, he is familiar with the road, "If the listeners still love little Lowry, you must collect this album, this is the life of little Lowry." "Cut the song to the second-hand store.

"Yes, all ......"

Al muttered to himself, just in time to hear Old Joe's chorus, and neither he nor Big A could hold back and laugh at the same time.

"Old Joe, this guy is the most clever one, right? None of us know where he's running away now, and I heard that the FBI can't find him haha......"

Big A didn't hold back, "Joe, if you're listening to my show somewhere in the United States or the world, I want to say to you, hey, cunning old guy, you're beautiful!" ”

Al laughed.

The two cooperated tacitly and gaged for a while, "So...... You started out at Lowry's house, right? I remember that he was not the same kind of person as our street boys in the South City before he became famous? ”

"Yes, little Lowry lives in a nice apartment, with a big living room, musical instruments, except that we can't make too much noise when we practice......," Al nodded, "We are often slammed on the door by neighbors in protest. ”

"You've also boarded at an APLUS house?"

"yes, APLUS is a standard street boy, a big family huddled together, you know, little room, that bunk bed, I was sleeping in his bunk."

"How is APLUS doing to you? than Lori Jr. ”

"Uh......"

Al hesitated.

"Huh? Hexagram? Say, hey, we're all brothers, and although he's our boss now, what can we do? Well? Big A put his middle finger at the microphone pen, "APLUS, YOU'RE A PIECE OF SHIT?" Look, I said it, I said it, how about it? ”

"No, you know, APLUS is the kind of boring good student, and he can't stand idle people like me." "I remember the three most he said to me at the time, 'Al, aren't you sleeping?'" It's late, I have class tomorrow'Al, when will you find your new place?'' ''Al, help fix that Ford at home.'' ”

"Hahaha......" Big A was turned over by his Song Ya tone of painting and coloring, "Yes, yes, yes, he is that kind of person." Did you move away later? ”

"No, I don't have anywhere to go, where can I go then? Fxxk！ ”

Al replied: "I will say whatever he wants, Lao Tzu will live in your house anyway, I will live, how about it?" ”
