whats up - i just read the comment, but i didn't quite understand where u were coming from :)<P>i read all of the journals (3) at blacklily (in their entirety) and i didn't see where they were being judgemental or scornful towards any other artists. they were talking at one point about how angie stone and macy grey were selling ? units a week or something, then they were talking about their personal struggles with the industry; as far as "the wound" video and radio. i mean, yeah she sounded kinda bitter about their acceptance and sales but she wasn't hating on anybody. just because she was speaking on the careers of others doesn't mean that she was making their career look dismal, obviously by her other entries, the nastees are doing their best to keep their heads above water by keeping a positive outlook, i can respect that. peace - billy<P><BR>"you gaze confused/ at me from the stage while my camera rewinds/ yes - flashed a contraband memoir of an obsession divine/ in this life i want just a mere fraction of your prescious time/ when i relinquish to you all of mine" - <P>from my labelmate Soir's spoken word piece, "F.A.N.S" <BR><a href="http://www.geocities.com/gabbana36" target="_blank">http://www.geocities.com/gabbana36<;/a>
