^ Well, that's everyones opinion. I know no one like 'Sneakernight' as of yet, but maybe I will like 'Girl,Get It' I'm just not feeling it right now, as I said I'm still too far into 'Double Dutch Bus'. Still looking forward to the album. Tracklist looks good

Exactly. Everyone has a different opinion, this site would be MUCH more peaceful if people knew that.

Yep, got that right. Hollywood Records never puts money into Raven.
Im srry, but I think they are slightly racist, but thats just my opinion.

Why would they even sign her if they were racist? I think it has more to do with her attitude behind the scenes.
If anyone was treated bad, & was of different race than caucasian, it'd be Corbin Bleu. IMO

They honestly sign every person on Disney Channel besides Zach and Cody, and most of the dudes. It's just an opinion though, it's been brought up alot. They signed her because for awhile she was the teen queen, had the #1 and longest running show, etc.

I don't see why her attitude has anything to do with them not putting money into her. They'd give up making a profit because Raven has an attitude?

No, but they'd have less interest in promoting her, especially if she's hard to work with.
Also, people are forgetting that DDB was released not even a full two months ago... HR doesn't make videos for ANY of their artists often...

If that is even remotely a reason they have less interest in promoting her, then that's another fault of there's, and will hinder they're profits. Thats really an idiotic buisness decision on they're part. But I highly doubt Raven has such an attitude that a label would hinder a possible successful record and getting money from it. "This is My Time" could've been a HUGE success had they given her more promotion than just a parade performance. I don't understand the huge venue concert tour right now either, her album isn't out yet, nor is it getting promotion, but they expect alot of people to buy tickets besides Ravens current fanbase?
DDB is basically an irrelevant song, it did moderately well on iTunes and that's it. They need to give her a proper single/video right now, that's basically the bottom line and thats what should be in they're buisness figure.

This track is soooooooooooooooo hot! I like it more than Green and Got It Girl. This album is gonna be so hot! I'm supporting her and actually buying the CD from the store physically instead of downloading it from iTunes.

You are forgetting we're talking about Hollywood Records here. You act like all of this should make sense.
Also, I doubt TIMT would have been a huge success. She might have a great voice, but she just doesn't have IT.

No, it would've been a success. TIMT sold what it did on her name only, nothing else whatsoever, no hit single, no promotion, no performing, just name. So if she can sell 200,000 + of a record based on name alone, what would she have sold based on her name + big promotion + a hit single? Most likely at the least 400,000 - 500,000 by now. Maybe more.

You said huge success. Even back in 2004, 400k - 500k wasn't a huge success. lol Oh & her videos were being played on DC, so I wouldn't exactly say she was left in the cold.
& dude, chill. I was just stating my opinion. No need to get so defensive.

Right, but however they never gave a release date, no commercials, basically, nobody really knew about the record's release, but her sales miraculously raised when she did the tour. So if they had done heavy promo, I swear first week sales would've been at the least above 50,000+. 500K is good enough since it's gold with that imo.
& im not getting angry! It's the internet, my comment probably sounded angry, but I wasn't trying to sound that way. Srry.

that would be a tragedy that would lead to a flop in the rest of Europe and Australia.
