These are the moments we strive for when pursuing a career — to be acknowledged at the highest level. One is a nomination for a Diamond record. One is a win for one of the best rappers ever. #Grammys

@thebravobabe_ This is sexual assault. After production caught him on top of her, he thought it was okay to lie behind her naked. Then got upset when he couldn’t get away with it. I’ve seen too many men act this way when they’ve done something to an unaware and unwilling woman and were caught.

Y’all really don’t understand the importance of album booklets. To get an album, open it up, pop that cd in, and slide that booklet out of the case hoping the lyrics were inside so you could sing along to each song — and reading those credits inside and on the back of the case.

Usher and Beyoncé are peers. Equally. Bey’s on a record breaking tour. Usher is holding a record breaking residency. They are doing the same thing. Bey’s coming to us in our cities. We’re going to Usher in Vegas. If Usher announced a tour immediately after Super Bowl, I.

@Imposter_Edits As soon as she said they had a warrant, the other cop stepped over and behind her and said something. She turned to him, heard what he said then turned back to the camera. Smells like she lied and he knows the camera caught it.

If you wanna keep it all the way a buck — when Usher first hit the scene they sent him to Puff. That album was considered a flop. After that, they sent Usher to JD he hasn’t flopped since. I’m just sayin. 🤷🏾♀️.

The only WNBA player to ever achieve this and stands beside Wilt Chamberlin and Wes Unseld to ever achieve this in basketball.

TikTok is dangerous for music to some degree cuz people only know 6-30 seconds of a song — if that. Most of the time they are not going to DSPs to listen to the full song. They are consuming the same part of the song over and over on TikTok and that’s all they really care to know.

Sade signed a deal in 1983 for a small advance — 77k — in order to have 15% ownership of her sales. She’s sold over 50 million albums. I say all that to again say — stop being so concerned with the advance and focus on the terms. The terms are where you really make your money.

RCA is literally carrying R&B right now. They’ve been consistently investing in R&B artists for the last six years alone.

Knowing I wanted to be in music I dreamed of that — to see my name in the credits, on the back of the cd case, in the “thank yous”. I got that moment twice in my career before the tide turned — to go to Target and buy an album I was a part of, see my name and I forever cherish it.

@JadenLoveLungi 1. Disney and Nickelodeon showed so much love to R&B when I was growing up (Goes to show that R&B is in fact mainstream and global. The 90s was special for this reason).2. To be a little girl with a voice like hers she had no choice. She was destined to be a singer.

R&B is mainstream. R&B influences all. R&B belongs on mainstream radio. Popular playlists. Major syncs. R&B deserves superstars. Invest in them.

Out of all the ones I’ve had — I’d prob say Remy Ma. I was 18 and a freshman at Clark Atlanta. I caught her on the way out of the CAU gym and rapped for her. She could tell my rhyme was written so she told me to spit a freestyle I did then I gave her my cd with my number. She.

Songwriter tip: don’t impersonate the artist. Do you. Trust — they do not like hearing someone try to sound like them. They do that themselves. Do something they can’t do themselves and makes them want to do it.

R&B can’t be treated like Hip-Hop. R&B has to be developed and worked. The same treatment put into “Pop” needs to be put into R&B.

I see “industry plant” being used a lot and in the wrong way. Seeing an act repeatedly because of marketing isn’t an “industry plant”. If their label is in the credits — they’re not an “industry plant”.

I miss making mix cds. Digital playlists just aren’t the same. It’s not the same effect. It wasn’t nothin like searching for the songs you wanna hear in the car, burning the cd, writing on it then anxious for the next time you get in the car so you could pop it in.
