Raven Symone's new film "College Road Trip" opens with 14,000,000+ dollars at the box office. That is enough for the #2 spot behind the blockbuster, "10,000 B.C."! Good job Raven, and to her fans! No doubt with the promotion Disney is giving this film, it will have longetivity.

- Album drops April 29th and not April 22nd
- Raven still has yet to shoot for the album cover, her CRT schedule has been preventing much to do with the album right now
- Her tour will start in April and will go through until August. This Tour will be called the Pajama Tour and as she said at the meeting "Keep the pj's PG rated".
- Her new album will have 12 tracks plus 3 BONUS tracks depending on where you purchase the CD
- "Double Dutch Bus" WILL be on her new album.
- This album is going to be MORE commercial then the last but still keep it's message of self power.
- "Double Dutch Bus" has reached the Top 50 on iTunes top R&B tracks! |

The clips sound good.
I see they changed "Got It Girl" to "That Girl". (Most likely cause the title was simular to "Girl, Get It").
This should leak soon so I can't to hear the songs in full!

^It's a TOTAL summer album, it has soo many potential party anthems. Hollywood Records screwed up! Hopefully they can fix they're mistake.

Well Raven could be doing something too though right? Surely if Raven really wanted to go out and do promo, her management could set some stuff up? Because if the album is really as good as people are saying it is, EVERYONE involved in this project has made a huge mistake.

^ I agree. Hollywood Records sucks but you can't blame everything on them.
Example...I really do think it's her managements job to do her myspace. Corbin's is updated constantly (and he's not a big seller) with what he is doing along with the Jonas Brother's and Aly & AJ's. They should have done something else instead of just posting songs on the myspace. They don't even haver her tour info up there. And she does videos for Raven Symone Presents...they could put those on there too...they didn't even add her tour video to her myspace. They don't even have her music video on her page. Not to mention they don't even have a place to comment on there.
I think its crazy that she hasn't been in a whole bunch of magazines lately...even if its just a magazine like OK. That really isn't her record companies job.
I've always thought that Raven works harder being an actress over being a singer. She gets/does tons of promo when she does her movie/tv show (when it was on) but as a singer...I don't see her doing a whole lot.

I can't believe the title changed on Got It Girl to That Girl. That's gonna screw up my Last.fm a lot!
Otherwise, AMAZING albums. Blows her first three out of the water!

I know right??? This album is the hottest album I've heard in a LONG time. Especially on the R&B front.

Raven can't do much with an album without her label behind her. They are the one's that usually set up promo spots for albums, adds, all that. Raven can't do that, her management can't because they don't have the cash. It's really all Hollywoods fault, they didn't give her a single, video, performances, or anything. Not Ravens fault at all, although she COULD get down HR's backs and tell them to give her some damn promotion. I'd definately say this is the best album by a Hollywood Record's artist since Hilary's "Dignity", and definately the best recent R&B record out there at the moment, it could be really big.
As for the magazines, I don't know how that's set up. So I can't comment much only to say it would help if she was on Seventeen, or something.

^ We'll see.
"That Girl" is amazing. I love the way it's been remastered & how they changed the name. I think it'd be the perfect first single.

I noticed that it was remastered too  ...It actually sounds better, and plus, it's a perfect single choice as you said. I recomend that they release a new single the day of album release or something.

It was supposed to be the first single, but Hollywood Records changed last minute, and didn't give her a real first single.
