Why Havent They Blown Yet . . . . . ?

[MARVELL]

sometimes you also just gotta suck enough d*ck (ether ur male or female) for the right people before your time to blow comes.

certain girls and guys still have standards...so gots to wait a very lang time. if it ever comes

Wretch is a massive example of how the indstruy is being turned on its head. Especially in the UK.

Music's coming back.

Man saying Wretch turned the Uk industry on its head l

So Solid turned the industry on its head

how can anyone ever doubt what So Solid did?

them at the brit awards is still probably >>

and I'm not even from South

why am I even entertaining you

grr

[Goddaz]

All I know is if you ain't rolling properly with certain gatekeepers in the industry you ain't blowing. Unfortunately proper blowing up (not hood buzz) has alot more to do with who you know than talent or lack of in certain cases.

c/s

Another question is

How many of these hood buzz artists are really eating from the game?

Because in terms of collabos & contacts. These man often front a very big A-list type of barricade a0orund themselves.

You would think they had a few grammys under to there names

The ones that have their business set up right & are doing paid shows will be ok if they stay on their grind but most are hustling backwards imo. I've been guilty of this when I first started getting spins on legal radio. I lost bags coz I was just happy getting paid to perform, sell cd's etc & never registered with prs/mcps/vpl/ppl/vpl etc

i reckon it's a sick time for people that want to get involved in management.

Wretchs most popular songs are Tracktor and Dont Go, one includes an indie singer and the other one is some Dance Rap hybrid. A common theme in the Uk industry.

compare Wretch's work to what heads from a similar background are releasing though...

I made numerous responses to your post actually.

How is Wretch an example of the industry turning on its head, look at his two most popular songs and tell me they don't follow a clear formula.

Like who, Tracktor is not far away from the tracks Tinie Tempah are releasing, and 'Don't Go' is similar to what the likes of Professor Gren have been bringing out.

Your just saying this cause Wretch had a reputation as being a lyricist, when his last album doesn't show anything of the sort.

Every song apart from 4 has a singer on it, to me thats obviously done to make the album more accessible to wider audiences, its really nothing new, and when i heard 'Don't Go' i wasn't surprised that it was a hit, cause the likes of Ed Sheeran, Proffesor Green, Maverick Sabre, Example etc are making waves making the same type of music.

what happened to stryder

that spaceship tune with dappy was sick

[Mr. Martinez]

I mean he built everything he has around him pretty much on his own.

What i mean by industry being turned on its head is that power is shifting.

The things a lot of people on here are complaining about are not as relevant

Don't get it twisted, it's not easy to wake up tomorrow and decide you wanna be rich from music

but you have the power to organise your own shows, hire your own venues, independently distribute your music, etc.

Isn't that what this topic's about?

This.

Basically regardless of whether Ny can sing or not, she's just another Beyonce-sounding Mezzo Soprano with a generic image which in this day and age is nothing special, for example people want the Contraltos in the UK especially since amy made it popular again, they are easy to market now.

Why would a label back her when they probably have the equivalent talents in voice, who also have an image and production already there from past endeavours. it's like if she was signed to the same label as Rihanna why would they give her this new song and break their backs running a promotional campaign for her when they could just give it to Rihanna, sit back and count their money?

Essentially labels want people who are easy to market and she isn't so why waste money on her when they probably already have "one they made earlier" on their cards. They want them cheap too, because there is less money in single sales these days, nobody wastes studio money recording b-sides and remixes now, it is all in the touring now.

edit: May I also note that this applies for mcs as well, wretch did the hard work in building an underground following and distinguishing his style, now a label will give him time of day knowing it is cheap and cheerful to package his new breed of music

[DAT_YOUT_FROM_E15]

Feel sorry for ny, pretty face nice body good voice. Could have been a uk alica keys. She could go rihanna n become a slut? Maybe thatll do it

Leave rhiana she ain't a slut

She's baijan come on cut her some slack

[FANTA]

Urban music scene here is fucking shit

[TF S4DK]

i bet this thread was created mainly for sas still..u mug.

and on that note allow their mascot on here taking this thread to 118 pages defending their honour.

PHONECHARGER DO NOT HAVE IT.

[TF S4DK]

People act like Wretch is making the same type of music he did on Wretchrospective, the fact is a song like 'Don't Go' would have blown with or without Wretch.

That could be said about many an artist tbh.

[Colin Turnover]

I am actually in love with Ny.

[JLovely]

Sorry but LOL at Tulisa being a better singer than Ny.

[Reuben]

is there really much difference in it tho.

goin on like one is whitney houston and the other is a pub singer

[Mr. Martinez]

i think one of them could easily be a pub singer stil

[Guest Portuguese]

whats your point fella

[TF S4DK]

It peaked at 5 in the charts.

[Afroman]

I just think as an all round recording artist tulisa is better

she does whats she does very well in her OWN lane (bubble gum pop urban)

The other doesn't really shine in own lane.

But hey! each to their own.

[Flojo]

II've never been impressed by Ny's voice but as a total package I always thought she had the best chance of blowing out of the singers that were on the scene.

I used to rate Katie Pearl but haven't heard anything from her recent.

Cleo Soul seems to be building a little buzz but she's wasted doing pop imo, after time to let go she should have positioned herself as the soulful house vocalist of the UK imo.

jeez, reminded me
