Stitches.

They threw the best albums from Vanessa Hudgens, Hilary Duff, Jesse McCartney, Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato's in trash.

I hate them too.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. K&T sold 810.000 (US) with only 2 SONGS! They promote Falling Down (first single) only 1-2 times o.o
2. They don't send AYWR to radio. it was HER BEST SONG on the album

and they didnt give her a 3rd single

(

But look at Emily Osment her label is NOT HWR and she flopped HARD

her album sold 2000+? first week and was 170 on Billboard

It is a travesty that A Year Without Rain wasn't sent to radio. It would have been a hit for sure.

The thing with Emily is, it actually is an advantage to be with Hollywood Records (for a certain amount of time) because your videos are played on Disney Channel but since she's on a different (and also we have to take into consideration that it's Indie) label, yeah...

unbothered

Seriously, a label worse than RCAncient?!!?!

And then they hardly ever submit for the Grammys.

They submit to Grammys, Can't Be Tamed, Unbroken, When The Sun Goes Down and Joe's single See No More all have had submissions, and Jonas Brothers had a BNA nom. The problem is that they get overlooked... If the Grammys had a "teen artist" category, it'd be so much better for them.

Hollywood Records is only partially responsible for the flopping of Her Royal Miley's masterpiece "Can't Be Tamed." Let's not forget about the salvia, ****ty pictures, etc...

(I hate saying it, but it's true) Miley takes just as much blame as the label in this case.

I can't begin to express my hate for HWR. Selena would be doing so much better without them, I just wish she'd be clever and move away from them so she can reach her potential before she stops making music. Their lack of support should wake up any artist under them, and especially the fanbase reactions on the label. I feel Selena won't make the move though because she'll probably feel loyal to them in one way or another for creating her career & because she doesn't want to make music much longer and wants to focus on acting, which is a shame.

That ******** of an album release. They should have just done it as the Dignity Tour CD/DVD, added a bunch of remixes, and the two new songs instead of releasing that mess and called it a day. That was a huge waste and it once again made Hilary look like a joke because people thought she went along with the release when in reality she hated it.

Oh, I feel your sentiments. It's very hard for Hilary to move on after that album got released. It's like HWR wants Hilary to fade away after what Hilary has made them. Without her, HWR will be nothing.

Dignity

Play With Fire At this point I would have sent HD out on a promo tour to promote PWF so people could get introduced to her new sound. I would have saw the reaction to PWF and then went on and released... [Videos for PWF and WL would have been shot at the same time]

I love this, great job. I could've just put Shine, Someone's Watching Over Me and Outside Of You. I love Happy being the era-ender for Dignity, it could've been perfect.
