You didn't like the song and said it was proof she was done.

Whatever about Ryan Leslie. You said his self-titled album was better than Futuresex/Lovesounds. I was dumbfounded by that statement too.

I never claimed you said he would blow up. I just used your fandom as an example of you not knowing what's going to be a hit.

I'm not the only one with that opinion of "Empire State of Mind". It's a hit. People like it and think it's catchy. You're in the minority.

The only reason people cared about that Rockwell song was because they thought it was MJ. You can say people jammed to it before they knew but they jammed to it because they thought it was MJ. You hear the hook and you're like "is this Michael Jackson?". Let Rockwell sing that hook and no one cares. There's a reason he's a one hit wonder.

"Like You'll Never See Me Again" would be relegated to the quiet storm and wouldn't receive any major airplay if another artist recorded it.
