As much as i love No More, it even got to number 1 in my chart. I agree that it probably shoudnt have been realesead, it didnt have enought appeal to do well which it didnt.

I hope she has sucess this time around, I loved all 3 singles, but not too keen on Something About You as a lead single!

i thought the last album had good single choices nut her managment let her down with no more, not enough promo

Yeah i think your right there, whilst the first 2 singles got promo the last one didnt. Not that it was really strong enough to be a single.

Apparently, Jamelia & the label were speaking very little to and were not on good terms with one another during the time of "No More"... Also, J believes they wanted her to under-perform with this era & force her out from the label.

 

 

sounds ruthless

It is. More than anything, it's a business. A job. That's what young, aspiring singers need to realise.

 

Artists over at Parlophone were getting dropped faster than Paris Hilton's knickers, though. It's a tough industry. They needed to cut down a lot.

 

I don't know what the procedures are for dropping someone? Do you have to have a really good reason to drop an artist? Like, you can't just one day say "you're gone...buh-bye" to an artist on your label, can you? Or can they? I thought they had to have a very good reason, otherwise the artist can sue or something? I'm not familiar...

Is there a contractual agreement or something? Because Mimi was paid £28m to leave Columbia Records wasn't she?

yes

did parlo even have a good reason to dump jamelia?

i'm reaaly going off them

 

They didn't dump her, they were just pushing her in front of the door for her to walk through.

 

2006/7 was the time when EMI were cutting down on their artist rosta for financial reasons, so they were getting rid of a lot of people back then.

Loads of people were dropped at that point. How Beverley Knight is still there i dont know.
