Wow  " just because Adam's career may be hurt by that release" I really hope Adam will not be hire him again. Did he delete those tweets from his tweeter feed? I cannot see them? It's a different account. In my post I stated that I'm not sure who controls the tweets for this account. ETA But it is connected to montepittman.com and it is disturbing. |

Oh, so it might be a fake account? or could it be that Lisa (Monte's wife)  is tweeting from that account : "RT @montepittmanweb: this is currently the webmaster of Monte's site tweeting, not Monte. you know Monte's personal account." |

I feel like Monte is ultimately responsible for tweets that go out from @montepittmanweb or webmaster@montepittman.com It's his freaking name. |

Interesting comment about Adam's career. :( Monte Pittman News @montepittmanweb Official Twitter page for montepittman.com montepittman.com@oshi4real @kittykatsz no one is forcing you to buy the album if you don't want to. But several people worked on it and just because Adam's@oshi4real @kittykatsz career may be hurt by that release, doesn't mean that they didn't put their passion and hard work on it I hesitated posting this after reading some of the positive posts, but the position about Adam's career got me a little hot under the collar again. I'm not sure who controls the tweets for this account.
JFC!!!!!!I can't stand another day! Seriously! I can't stand seeing all this bullshit in front of my eyes!!!I see the sun in front of me, it is daylight, and they are trying to convince me that it is night!!!!! ****
Not disagreeing with you bb, but Monte is not responsible for whose name is on the album (and I'm sure Monte would love to have his name on the album he wrote jointly). Malcom Welsford is the person responsible for labeling.

All this bastard album shit is confusing. WE NEED A FLOW CHART. Ok, I'll admit I don't have a clue what is on the Paramount Sessions album (they're putting on old Take #1 stuff?? different stuff recorded at the same time as Take #1??), but here's my first stab at trying to figure this out....  |

I have asked this before but never received an answer. When Adam first tweeted his frustration he said "Beg For Mercy project is same as 'Take One'. some songs I worked on 5 yrs ago and never finished. This release comes as a surprise to me..." but we know that is not the case...BFM is old CV stuff and the Paramount Sessions is the Take One stuff. Could it be that he did not realize that and was less frustrated with the BFM stuff? He did disapprove of both projects but just wondering how this error factors in anything.... Don't go all pounding on me....just asking a question as it is really not abundantly clear and feeds into all the Monte bashing....no not defending anything there either...heaven forbid....I am just asking the question. BTW, while I do not personally self-identify as a "pearl clutcher" I think those that do have just as much fanning rights as we crazier diamante's...I would hate to see that term added to our arsenal of 'names' to call 'others'....we have quite enough I think  ??? Nope. Pretty sure Adam is right, and these two projects are both being driven by that same Malcolm dude. He may have distanced himself from it with an ever revolving door of label names, and a small staff of people busily astroturfing the interwebs about them, but it's him. And this confusion about it because there are two different simultaneous efforts to cash in on Adam? Exactly his plan. It also makes extremely difficult to call out or explain when a few facts are muddled in with the lies. I don't think it will significantly effect the success of Adam #2. But that doesn't mean I'm any less pissed about the while shady thing. And I suppose it is possible that Adam could use talking about it to highlight his earlier experience before Idol. But I would be willing to bet cash money that Adam would much rather talk about his own new music, and that this will be a continued source of irritation for him. I still think the less attention it's given in the media, the better. I agree that is likely but there seems a will not to read EXACTLY what ADAM said and I put in quotes. That is what I am asking/adressing. I repeat: " Beg For Mercy project is same as 'Take One'. some songs I worked on 5 yrs ago and never finished. This release comes as a surprise to me..." |

Does anyone know if that "review" is a site with any cred, or is it just some random guy's blog? Okay, I've been watching things unfold today. I feel like those who were hoping that this would not get a lot of mainstream attention might be wrong, and the barn has run out of the gate (or whatever that saying is.) Obviously there is a concerted effort by the rogue album people to promo these albums to the full extent they can. I've mentioned this before, and I believe it more than ever-- this whole mess might be spun into PR gold. Let it become a big old Gate, with lots of press and opportunities for Adam to speak his mind (and promo the shit out of his real music!) As the reviewer states, " Virtually evey major recording artist over the last 50 years has had early career demos or pre-fame for-hire experiments unearthed in glorified bootleg form. It's almost a rite of passage, the aural equivalent of an unauthorized celebrity biography, or finding your name atop billboards for a reissued B-movie you appeared in for seven minutes." If you look at it this way, the whole debacle actually gives Adam cred both as a long-term musician, and sympathy votes for being an artist fucked over by past collaborators. Honestly, at this point I'm hoping for more press, not less. This could be the best Gate ever, and it's actually about the music and artistry and ethics and all those things we care about! I realize this may not be a popular opinion, but I'm not the hiding-behind-couches type...  I have always thought this. This will help Adam in the long run. It only makes him more fascinating and deep... It builds his cred. It shows his history. It backs up his musical exploration and proves he paid his dues, rather than popping out fully formed from the American Idol star factory. I haven't wasted a minute worrying. And his label and management will handle whatever needs to be donenWITH THE HELP OF US, HIS FANS. |

It looks like it's possible that they are by two different but associated scumbags. Mean RCA will have to work twice as hard. Probably can't stop either - the best that they would be able to do is make them relabel. Don't go all pounding on me....just asking a question as it is really not abundantly clear and feeds into all the Monte bashing....no not defending anything there either...heaven forbid....I am just asking the question.
My first thought, when I read the tweet was.... he did not know the difference between the releases. That got the firestorm going on...everyone's "points of view". His.... fuck...for the buck came out in people's arguments as if this release was not legitimate. It seems one of these albums may be legit, if they signed away their rights. PERIOD. If not legal lawyers will figure this out. Still a bummer that the timing is reprehensible. |
