Chapter 628: Those People and Things That Passed Away
Under Linda's curious eyes, Song Ya left Xue Linfen's house refreshed, and before the car drove to the hotel, Mariah Carey's phone called.
"Where are you?" She asked, as if crying.
"Road...... On the way, what's wrong? β
Guilty.
"Let's go to the airport, we're flying to New York." Mariah Carey said, "David Cole is no good. β
"Thank you for coming, Aplus, Miss Kelly, it's been a hard flight from Los Angeles to New York so soon, isn't it?"
Roberto Claywell tearfully looked at David Cole, who had fallen into a coma and was intubated and connected to a ventilator, through the glass of the ward of a local hospital in New York.
He and David Cole have been friends for many years, and the two write songs and do business together, so they are naturally the saddest one.
"I still remember how he looked when he was in high spirits, no, it wasn't ...... not long ago"
Song Ya muttered that the disease was so violent that it was only a short time between the time David Cole was diagnosed with HIV and the time his condition worsened.
Mariah Carey leaned into Song Ya's arms and began to cry.
"Maybe that's life......"
Roberto Clevard sighed.
βMimiβ¦β¦β
At this moment there was a familiar voice in the hallway that had not been heard in a long time, and Motura had arrived, and Walt had arrived.
"Walt, Tommy, David, ......" Mary Carey saw the two burst into tears again.
"Don't be too sad."
Motura glanced at Song Ya, didn't say anything, and concentrated on comforting her, while Walter also looked sadly at David Cole on the hospital bed, and whispered to Roberto Clevell.
They add David Cole in it, and this is the invincible behind-the-scenes lineup that Mariah Carey relied on to become famous in the early days of her singing career, although with her own struggle with Motura and the change in Mariah Carey's musical style, the two sides gradually drifted apart.
Song Ya didn't spoil the atmosphere at such a time, hugged Mariah Carey tightly, and silently listened to them talk about the past.
"He plays the piano really well, it's the best ......"
Motura rarely showed an emotional side, "It's just that my luck is so bad, I think the NBA star is still bouncing." β
After about ten minutes of staying, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the hallway, and "Motura ......" Daniel appeared with Newman and other record company executives.
"Hello, hello, thank you for coming to see David."
Motura first shook hands with the executives behind him, and then looked at him coldly, "You're making a big mistake Daniel, don't think I don't know what means you used to rush last year's results." β
"Come on, Tommy, do you have to act in front of APLUS and Miss Kelly?" Daniel fought back with a look of disdain.
Motura didn't dwell on it anymore, walked away alone, and turned around the corner and said, "APLUS, let's talk?" β
"What's the matter?" Song Ya didn't move.
"Business."
"Go ahead." Daniel tilted his head, signaling to himself that it was okay.
"Okay. Wait for me in a moment, dear. β
Song Ya patted Maria Kelly on the back, gave old Mike another look, and walked with him to Motura, after all, this guy was going to kill himself if he let it go, and he couldn't take it lightly, although the possibility of actually doing it was almost zero.
The two followed Motura to the corridor of the hospital building, "APLUS, you are making a mistake, the bigger the music copyright library, the better, and you pull Mimi to split your copyright and have an impact on your own interests......"
Motura has long since regained his former self-confidence and bearing, although his power as president of Sony Entertainment was overshadowed by Daniel on the side of Sony Columbia Records and Guebel and Peters on the side of Columbia Pictures, but he is still the manager of MJ after all, and the issue thrown out is also a matter of matter for the merger of ATV and Sony Music Library.
That's true, Motura is right, the big buyers of music copyrights, such as almost all foreign big TV stations, developed countries and various joint institutions that make money by broadcasting music, for them, buying music copyrights has always been as easy as possible, so most of them buy the head copyright library with a relatively high market share, the big one, or those of the ATV in MJ's hands, and will not spend energy negotiating with the small copyright library for chasing a certain star.
This is also the motivation for DeLay to desperately maintain the market share of A+ Audio's synthesized sound library over the years.
"I know, I know it in my heart, but I just don't want to."
Song Ya didn't have any intention of talking nonsense about him, "So I'm sorry, Tommy, and I'm sorry to MJ on my behalf." β
"Okay, in that case."
Revenge for his wife, Motura stared at his facial muscles, and lost patience, no longer pretending, "APLUS, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE DAY WHEN YOU AND DANIEL ARE UNLUCKY, BELIEVE ME, THAT DAY IS NOT AS FAR AWAY AS YOU THINK." β
"Ha, it's been a long time since I've been so threatened face to face, Tommy, and the tone of your voice still makes me miss it so much." Song Ya sneered and sneered back.
Motura didn't respond, and left alone with his hands in his pockets.
"I still remember him playing the piano for me......"
After the visit, the two did not go back to Bedford Hills, a little far away, but to Tribeca's house, where Mariah Carey was very emotional and had been sad for David Cole, saying, "Maybe I should write a song in his honor." β
"I've got your back, Mimi, I'll do whatever you do."
Although Song Ya had a little semi-falling out with the other party in the later period, it should be Roberto Clywell who was in charge at that time, and he still had a good impression of David Cole, who often dined together.
"Hmm."
The two were hugging each other, when Linda came over with her phone, "Escubus called." β
"At this time...... If it's not important, ......",
was infected by his fiancΓ©e, Song Ya was also a little depressed and didn't want to take it.
"On his side, Eazy-E is dying."
Linda said.
"HIV, a few days after Big E was diagnosed, the person has fallen into a coma, and the doctor said that it will be about a few days."
Escuber was also very disheartened, "Although I became enemies with him later, but now that I think about it, in the face of death, those contradictions are so nonsense, and I still remember the help he provided to me when I first debuted...... I feel like with him gone, we once were. A will also be history forever, an era of West Coast gang rap is over, those who have passed, those who have passed, those who have passed away......"
Song Ya silently listened to him sigh for a long time, "Are you coming along?" Escuber asked, "Accompany me to the hospital." β
"I'm in New York, ...... here"
Songya told him about David Cole, "I'm sorry, what about Drey? Aren't you going with him? "He didn't go to visit any big E, he didn't have a relationship, he also snatched people from him, how embarrassing it would be to meet on this occasion, if Big E remembered when he saw himself, anyway, he was not afraid to publicize the robbery the day before yesterday, but he lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot.
"HIV too?"
"Yes."
"Fxxk, this disease ......"
Escuber sighed, "Dre hasn't called me yet, if he doesn't want to go, or doesn't want me to go, then I'll be embarrassed......"
NWA's brothers have deep contradictions with each other, although he and Derui reconciled and joined forces with DISS Big E, but the knot buried by the three parties is not so easy to eliminate.
However, his fears did not materialize, and DΓ©rew later offered to invite him to the hospital with him.
That night in Harlem, 2PAC led his henchmen out of the car and walked to the building where Bad Boys Records' recording studio was located, his sexual assault case was going to court the next day, and the situation was not good, he was very likely to be found guilty in court, so he would immediately go to jail.
"Fxxk, last year I was still singing in New York to celebrate my release on bail, and the second Hip Hop Awards didn't make up for ......"
He scolded and bowed his head and walked to the door of the building, "Forget it, I'll have one last night at my old iron Biggie tonight, and then I'll go to that damn cell, you say, I'm not going to be stabbed to death in it for some reason like little Lori, right?" β
"I said, Boss Suge has a very bad relationship with Daddy Braggie, we always have such a close relationship with Daddy Boast's Biggie, okay? And you also slept with Biggie's wife, hehe......" the attendant muttered with a wicked smile.
"Fxxk, didn't Biggie get to where she is today by complimenting me? Don't worry, a woman can't affect our feelings, we're Homie......"
As soon as the words fell, two young black men suddenly rushed out from their sides, raised their hands without saying a word, and opened fire......
A barrage of gunfire resounded through the streets of New York.
