I'm a member of AO but rarely go there (don't even remember my login anymore), can someone please fill me in about the extra perks (if any) pre-ordering at AO vs. iTunes? I mean, the album...thx! :-) I want a physical single album, so I pre-order one from AO. If you only want digital, there is no difference, except that people will get to see the i-tunes sales charting. |

Btw - I wonder if RCA is feeling embarrassed reading all these great reviews for NCOE that say BTIKM was an odd choice for a first single and that's why it didn't do well. Of course I KNOW they're not but I wish they would be a little red-faced.
I would guess they might be pointing fingers! Too bad it's Adam's name and not the suits that chose it that get the flack. People who matter know the label chooses though, I would assume.

He's a producer, so he works with all labels. He produced Adam's Naked Love and also Adam Levine's Moves Like Jagger. So he is successful enough to not get crap from a label, but obviosuly he does! |

This is funny, but NOT! Benny Blanco is on a rant right now about dealing with labels! It is sort of off topic, but not really. Read from the bottom up. ***** 5m Benny Blancoþ@ItsBennyBlanco A&R: Hey can u bring the snare and vocals up in the mix? Me: Yes *sends the same exact mix with different title* A&R: this is perfect! 7m Benny Blancoþ@ItsBennyBlanco A&R: love this song... i have a few small changes... can u just change the beat, lyrics, and melody? 9m Benny Blancoþ@ItsBennyBlanco A&R: you know i like it... i just don't get it... *fast forward 6 months after u blow up* A&R: i always believed in u! 1h Benny Blancoþ@ItsBennyBlanco Me: U like this? A&R: Can we put this on hold? Putting on hold = putting it in their itunes and never listening again LMAO! Yeah Benny is cracking me up!! |
