Jacked from a random message board
RCA records is planning on "trimming the fat" from it's label which means many people are getting the pink slip. The two most relevant names are Pop Singers Adam Lambert and Chris Brown. Lambert, who last two CD's have produced nightmarish sales, is likely to be dropped by the end of the summer. His current two albums sold less than 900,000 combined worldwide.
After the Merger with Jive records, RCA received a large amount of artist that they had high hops far, one was Chris Brown. However over the course of 3 years he has only obtained one gold record (F.A.M.E). Insiders are giving to the end of the summer to see what Fortune does. in addition to less than stellar album sales, his personal life have tarnished his image making termination a likely solution.

Well I tried to support the brother but he seems to be on a spiral of destruction.
The reason Fortune isn't selling is because the singles are garbage. I wasn't a huge CB fan, but F.A.M.E. is my JOINT! The singles are great and so is the whole cd. Why would I go buy a cd from an artist if the singles aren't good? He can be mad all he wants, but if its a bad cd, its a bad cd. Of course you'll have some diehard stans no matter what you do, but the stans don't make the big bucks and sales at the end of the day. In the end, its about putting out a quality product that folks will love, regardless of how they feel about you. And Fortune ain't it!
I'm sure he isn't worried. He said himself, "what's a country 'boy' got to lose when he came from nothing.
Better tell Kareuche to give that fancy car back so e can terminate the lease.
Chris is an excellent hook and Chris singer #thatisall
He was charged with domestic violence. That killed it period. He will never reach that status again.
MJ is a prime example of an individual who had it all and then lost it. It's sad but black men's actions will cost them their lively hood.
Haha bye bye nice run know take that goat singing Rhi with you. How do record labels not hear that bad singing. I hope y'all stacking your chips. While its a recession they are shown in their yachts and popping bottles, I which people stop putting their hard earned money into theses fakes.
Today's "artists" have no staying power - they are puppets created by the music industry to sell cd's and promote a "brand".... talent is no longer required to be a music superstar.....
Hope he saved some money.
@12:36-you can accuse CB of not having a lot of things but talent isn't one of them! The music industry has no loyalty. They will promote you well for one album and leave you out to dry for the next. It mustne much cheaper to promote new artists (or more profitable) and so the big cheese wheel goes.
didn;t Chris Brown say that he was going into acting and Adam need to get to blowing off Somebody
It would end eventually. The teenage girls who support him now won't be interested in him in the next 2 years.

Me too.Not a fan but I try to give young cats a 2nd chance because others who have done worse and a history of it get numerous chances (Charlie Sheen) but Chris is just too much.Getting back with Rihanna,the brawl with Drake. Sometimes You just CAN'T with some negros.
Well at least Chris made enough money to pay for his mom's breast reduction surgery.

I think life in a way is almost worst for "successful" celebrities because they hire people who are only there as long as they can be paid. So these people will never try to counter him or tell him he's doing something stupid because CB will simply fire them. His management team should have sat him down and told him to chill. His producers should have gave him a warning. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis told Alexander O'Neal that if he continued to do drops they wouldn't work with him and they stuck to their word. This idiot has had a free for all. This kind of climate is ultimately what fucked MJ up. No one around to seriously sit him down and tell him that he's fucking up his face because they're afraid they'll be fired.

Really, who is going to stop their money train? When somebody with less money or status tell somebody what to do, they're seen as jealous.
He knows right from wrong, just like everyone else!
@9:56
The problem is he's not like everyone else in the sense that once you get to the point in your celebrity that you can wake up at 4:00 am and ask for anything you want and have it delivered to you that messes people up. That's the disconnect. Once you reach that point you believe you can do everything and anything and no one can touch you. I gave you an instance of a producer stopping their money train. There are managers with good reputations who will tell their client what they should do and if they don't listen and shit hits the fan they will quit to save their own name or to teach the celeb a lesson.
On the BET awards he said it was he last album
His current two albums sold less than 900,000 combined worldwide.
The least you could do is give credit to LSA.
You know this is where you got this "tea" from.
His image is damaged, that's why he's not selling the way he used to. Look at R. Kelly.
