If there is no singles soon or in early 2014 then the album is not coming in 2014 and hopefully Porcelain leaves that label or releases through some other alternative, it's just not worth wasting so many years on an album produced by redone. (wait I think I already said this in 2011 or 2012  )
Zander Bleck, midnight red, talkback etc have waited just as long and still have no albums coming either.
I tweeted redone that Havana is lucky she is signed to island records australia and not just to his label and he got mad and blocked me.  |
I haven't believed or believed in RedOne for years. After The Showcase I did think the album campaign would start as it seemed absolutely stupid to bother doing a showcase, and then not use the hype and put it towards her album. How foolish of me to forget for that moment that is is 2101, one of the worst labels known to the music industry today. I also did believe the album would come this year because Porcelain actually told us that herself, and she is yet to say anything otherwise. Of course, she just gets fed lies from the label but still. What I also hate about 2101 is how they just leave their artists' fanbase to just wait with no information at all. Iggy's album has been pushed back until next year. Thats fair enough because her label have allowed her to explain why.
"The official date? ****ed if I know!” said Iggy in the interview, expressing frustration over the delay. ”It’s done, it’s so depressing to say this but it’s the beginning of March, it’s so far away but I just have to accept that.” Azalea went on to further explain the push-back, indicating that it was mainly due to her tour with Beyonce. “It was supposed to be October but obviously I’m going on tour with Beyonce and they said I’m not allowed to put an album out while I’m on tour because I’ll be trapped in Australia and I won’t be able to do any TV appearances and I thought that’s fair enough, that’s three weeks and then they said ‘You can’t put an album out around Christmas time, that’s a bad time’ and I said ‘What about January?’ ‘Well nobody gets back off holidays and then it’s the Brit Awards, you can’t release an album, it’s terrible for marketing’ which brings me to February. The marketing team gets to control me unfortunately, I don’t get to control that.”
That's the way you do it. Explain.... give another release date. Dont let your artist just stumble and flake when asked about their debut album.
Maybe RedOne blocked you because he has been so disconnected from the truth for so long that he cannot deal with it when he sees it. Havana is so lucky. She dodged the hideous 2101 bullet, and her album release just proves that if you don't sign with 2101, you are more likely to actually get your album released. Terrible that we have to remind ourselves that 2101 is actually considered a label and it is their job to release albums. As you say,
none of the 2101 artists have their albums coming. Shameful.
