Jordin Sparks just officially announced her new label 7 her new single. In the process she dished a little about RCA! www.forbes.com/sites/hughmcintyre/2014/12/14/american-idol-winner-jordin-sparks-talks-new-music-and-ditching-certain-people/2/In a recent interview with Forbes, Jordin about moving to Louder Than Life from her previous label, RCA, “If I’m going to be honest, RCA didn’t really know what to do with me. I didn’t really want to be stuck there anymore. I appreciate everything that they did for me previously, but it was time to move on and go somewhere I could get some stuff done.
“I never stopped recording actually. It was like they dangled the carrot in front of me and kept telling me it was going to happen, but then it never did. I can’t tell you what they were thinking, but I can tell you that I really felt stifled there. I had so much that I wanted to do…so many times I was in the studio, and so many times I came in with really great material, and it just didn’t work. I’m happy for the artists that they are working on, and I’m really happy in the place that I’m in now. There’s no ill will at all. You have to move on. Everything has its season.”Yeah.... I read this a few hours ago. The bolded part stood out to me as well. Not shocked tbh.

First Taxi Cab confession: 7/3/13 - one week later public announcement that Adam left RCA. In the week starting with 7/3/13, we had major drama. There was the Shirley Halperin article containing the news about RCA's position towards Adam's future music, supposedly a rumor. I remember tons of drama. While I cannot nail those confessions (to Shirley) down to 7/3/13, it was a week, where Shosh flew to LA, and eventually everything unraveled. Now, that clearly things are moving along with WB, we are getting that same tweet? Nope, not coincidence. My interpretation is, PR regarding Adam's new label has been set into motion. Something has been communicated to the press or at least some press, and we will hear more pretty soon. The 'This is It' - tweet, means a) that the GO button has been pushed and if (and that's a big IF) it also means that Katy is somehow involved (other than by common artist management), then whatever is happening is more than just an announcement of label for Adam. Katy is not with WB, and she has started an own label, so I am sure not able to pull that one together at all. Maybe it has nothing to do with Katy, and just means literally: 'This is It'. I think you are on the right track here. The "GO" button is being readied for the push, just don't know when the announcements will begin. Not this week or next, too much holiday stuff in the news.

Am I the only one flailing about that date!?!?!? Am I seeing something that is not there? Adam has done TBT several times. I think "This Is It" is just the name of the movie. Sorry, but the mashed potato queen gets no vibes from this photo! And if they release a single next week, I will be close to wanting to kill myself (not really) but JUST NO, PLEASE!!! I do not think that they are releasing anything in 2014 -- just that maybe they will announce something. Adam randomly Tweets for his TBT (Throw Back Thursday) a photo of Adam and Katy Perry taken on the red carpet or the premiere of the film "This Is It" that was taken on October 27, 2009 -- the same day he released the first single from his debut album -- and I am the only one who thinks that is a hint that we are going to hear something about his next single? Seriously? I don't even think that is mashed potatoes. That is just connecting the dots.

Next week is Christmas week. Just not thinking anything will be announced now.,

Next week is Christmas week. Just not thinking anything will be announced now., Oh Adam is heading into a big news cycle. He has the Helene Fischer Christmas show and then he has the BBC NYE Concert. That is the #3 (UK) and #4 (Germany) music markets in the world. Together they are about 70% of the US Market in wholesale revenues. If this was not happening, I would agree with you. But they have a big press cycle to ride going into the new year. *** If he tweeted out a great picture of himself I would get it. But that was not his best moment. JMHO no rocks but IMO he looks 10000% better now.

1) Oh! So, could that mean that E News got the scoop? We better pay attention to them.
2) Yeah, I also don't think that the single release date is a clue. Just does not fit in timing right now.
3) Yes, thinking about KP connection a lot, but just cannot connect those dots to label signing. Maybe some combined venture? We should know before Xmas/ new year then, I guess.
Maybe, they thought, that while you should not release a single before Xmas, it is normally a quiet time for entertainment related news. And without Sony, that assumption would probably be true. Whatever they are planning to release, I hope it is working for them and Sony does not get in the way.

I'm wondering if Adam has moved beyond A3 by this time. I mean it's been awhile since the Max Martin summer camp, and Adam evolves so quickly in his musical tastes, I'm hoping he still loves the music by the time he gets to perform it. I think QAL is good for Adam since his label is biding it's time and staging its release. I am almost positive that Adam is really excited about A3 which he started working on January-February 2014 and finished in early November 2014 -- so really not that long ago. Since the album was not done until last month, the label wasn't really sitting on it. In fact, it seems they wanted it to be released in 2014. I am just happy that small things are happening now like him being on the WBR Twitter Artists list, and WBR following Adam. Hopefully we will get a press release and info soon -- maybe first of the year to leverage the BBC concert press? I think Q+AL is spectacular for Adam -- he has the money to do what he wants, and the UK-Europe tour is so well timed for a March-May, 2015 Adam solo album release. Things seems lined up really well for him. I don't remember if this has been discussed, but does anyone else get a cut of the money Adam makes with Queen besides the government for taxes?

And also maybe announce a 2015 release date for a single and/or album.
