  Now That’s Some Bullshit: Booking @TeeFlii Turns Into Theft by Taking

  July 11, 2016 / Booking, Bullshit

  Hey folks. Sorry for the delay. I’ve been trying to get some other stuff resolved with this issue before I went public. In the early part of this year, Tuskegee University Student Government contacted me about booking artists for their Spring Homecoming. It is actually called SGA Week. They gave me a list of names, some super popular and some somewhat obscure. On that list was a name that I can say I was actually eager to book. That name […]

  Considering Booking @EpicRecords @SonyMusicGlobal Artist @TeeFlii via @manageking? Consider this…

  May 22, 2016 / Bullshit

  **Note: this is an excerpt. This post will remain up but when the Complex network approves the below submitted article in full, the link to the article will be available with the “Read More” text.** I have had my share of bad bookings. Most of the time the booking issues are on the end of the local promoters or the venue but very seldom does the bullshit come slithering and oozing from the side of the recording artist. This is […]

  Now That’s Some Bullshit: Walt Reeder Entertainment are scam artist! @AugustAlsina bad booking! STAY AWAY!

  November 8, 2013 / Bullshit

  These are troubling times… As some of you know, I hate bullshit. Unnecessary bullshit that can be prevented and diverted is the worst bullshit of all. This one is touchy for me because I actually tried to do the right thing in this situation. I have had similar issues in the past with other bad agents. See the previous Now That’s Some Bullshit postings.   A few weeks ago, a client called me about booking August Alsina. As an up-and-coming […]

  Now That’s Some Bullshit: Vere Johns @IAMTalentAgency @kmichelle Equals Fake Bookings & Stolen Money

  September 17, 2013 / Bullshit

  I have had my fair share of bullshit. In fact, I am over my quota. It’s like I am attracting the bullshit. Today’s installment of “Now that’s some bullshit” is no different. I periodically get email and text blast from other booking agents because I like being up-to-date with offers. Every now and then I will come across a deal that is just too good to pass up (considering that it is actually valid and real) so I will begin […]

  Now That’s Some Bullshit: How NOT to book @DefJamRecords, Trinidad James @TrinidadJamesGG

  December 22, 2012 / Bullshit, Post

  I will admit defeat when it comes to me and today I am defeated. I have been in communication with the Trinidad James camp for at least 4 months. He’s been on my radar for quite some time. In fact, I was asked to find contact information on their camp months ago for a few music industry executives to contact them because they were interested in signing them. That path led me to a manager. This was “pre” video drop. […]

  Now That’s Some Bullshit: @_KEOnTheTrack At It Again @Gmomo2012

  November 14, 2012 / Bullshit, Viral Videos

  *apologies for the video but the owner of the video has made the link private. In the video he stated how he paid KE on the Track for a feature with 2 Chainz and KE then sold that feature to someone else. Since the promo for this story started, @Gmomo2012 has received the money he paid back. In addition to that, he changed his twitter name and actually made the video above private. I do not want to make this […]

  Now That’s Some Bullshit: Scammed by fake Universal Music Group rep Rachel “Stef” Polony & Jose Coutour @TrevorProject @IAMJCOUTOUR @umg @josecoutour

  November 12, 2012 / Bullshit, Post

  This story is true and told from my perspective. This does not in any way reflect the mission of the Trevor Project or the other artist and representatives at Universal Music Group. A few weeks ago, I received a mysterious phone call. Richard/Ricardo was on the other end and he was asking where his twitter followers were that he purchased for a client. He said that he purchased 1 million followers for $1,000. that is the price that is listed […]

  @theofficialvic Now That’s Some Bullshit: the Truth behind the fake V.I.C.; PROMOTERS BEWARE (updated 12/13, new videos & music)

  December 11, 2011 / Bullshit, Post

  Here we are again with another installment of “Now That’s Some Bullshit”. I really hate reporting on this type of stuff but when I do it is usually for someone else’s benefit, not mine. Let me give you a little background first. A few weeks ago, an associate of mine told me that V.I.C. was coming to Macon. I was immediately surprised since I didn’t know anything about it. Briefly towards the end of the “Say Bow” run I was […]

  Repost: That’s Some Bullshit: KE on the Track

  October 31, 2011 / Bullshit, Post

  We are re-posting this story now because there will be a followup to this within the next 10 days. I received a curious phone call the other day. I was taking a call from an unsigned artist, Braddy Tha Hustla, CEO of GBU Entertainment, from Macon Georgia in reference to doing an eblast and online profile on the site. Brady is currently pushing a single entitled “Cash 3/Cash 4”. To listen to the music or watch the unofficial video, click […]

  I’m Just Sayin…That’s some Bullshit: Global Attack Mixtape & Def Jam Distribution

  February 24, 2011 / Bullshit, Post

  Let me first apologize for the language that is about to be used…it will not be pretty. I have been working on a few projects lately. One involves an International Hip Hop Music Festival. It is still in the planning stages but I am still trying to cover all bases and bring in a few partners as I go along and get a feel for who is interested and who is not. Yesterday, I reached out to the owners of www.International-Hiphop.com in […]
