Did Kelly Price Sign A
Confidentiality Agreement With Mariah Carey And Sony Regarding Her
Vocal Work For The Singer
September 6. 2013
R&B Divas L.A. cast and Wendy Williams
As mentioned yesterday, on Wednesday night's
"R&B Divas LA" reunion show, singer Kelly Price was
confronted by claims she made about Mariah Carey's deteriorated voice.
Price used to be a background singer for Carey and stated on TV One
that she quit, when the singer did not want her to leave the
post.
As host Wendy Williams stated yesterday, regarding a
Price tweet said to be about Mariah Carey,
she revealed Kelly wrote on Twitter, "I’m looking at a concert on TV right now of a
certain singer and asking myself what happened to your voice. Sometimes
the gimmick goes too far. One day you go to sing and realize it ain’t
happening. This is making my voice hurt."
The
term "gimmick" in reference to a singer's vocals means what
is referred to as "studio wizardry" regarding the use of
vocal processors and in some cases session singers performing the lead
track, which is then merged with that of the artist for a richer, more
robust sound. For Price to make the statement she did, Williams to out
it as Mariah Carey, then for Kelly to hold back, could indicate a
confidentiality agreement. I think the public has a right to know
exactly what she meant.
Mariah Carey
The
label that made Carey famous, Sony, has experienced problems with such
claims in the past. The worst case was that of C&C Music Factory,
where they used a model to front the vocals of full figured powerhouse
singer Martha Walsh. Sony was also home to Milli Vanilli (Arista), one
of music's worst scandals, as two photogenic men were used to front the
vocals of older men in their fifties (at the time) and went on to win
Grammies for the fraud, which were later revoked.
Clearly
Carey can sing, but three albums into her career and her voice changed
in a non-typical manner. She often struggles through live performances
as well. Many singers can replicate their CD sound live, but chronic
copyright infringer Carey
who's stolen from many, is always straining and doesn't sound like the
record. Does Price know more than she is saying. Was Price singing way
more on those CDs than she was given credit for. Will Carey address
Price's claims, especially after speaking of her voice troubles in the
past in noted television and print interviews.
Side
Bar: About 50 Mariah Carey fans on Twitter known as
"lambs" have gone insane over the articles regarding this
topic (Kelly
Price Exposes And Clowns Mariah Carey Stating She Can't Sing Implying
Someone Else Boosted Her Vocals On CDs and Kelly
Price Claiming She Sang On Mariah Carey’s CDs Because She Can’t
Sing Is Causing Controversy).
They've taken to immaturely spamming me on Twitter, even spewing
hateful items about assault and death, criminal violations of Twitter's
terms of service. Their parents couldn't be proud to know their grown
offspring are online threatening death, violence and mayhem, especially
over a singer they don't even know. That's mental illness. However,
they've inadvertently put money in my pocket with their frenzied,
hateful behavior (ad revenues).
When
I linked an item blogger Perez Hilton wrote in response to a question,
where he used a reputable video from a television broadcast, the
unbalanced individual, who kept instigating others, referred to the
well-known blogger as "FAGrez" regarding his homosexuality.
I'm not a Perez Hilton fan, but considering Carey has gay fans, was
this really appropriate. Human dignity says you don't call a person a
slur they ask not to be called.
I
initially started answering their questions about Carey and Price, then
I realized they aren't well, clogging up my box with their hateful,
violent madness devoid of reasoning or logic, when there are other
people's tweets to me I need to read. I have no time for people
disputing established facts. So, I just blocked them and stopped
reading the "lambs" tweets.
I
don't know how any decent singer could be proud of a group of fans
connected to a forum, regurgitating such hate and rage and of an
unlawful nature. Some not ALL entertainers, encourage fanaticism in
their fans to garner repeat sales, showing approval for what is debased
behavior, which is a poor reflection on them. I can see why the Bible denounces
idolatry. It really brings out the worst in people, when they start to
worship human beings, rather than Him and doing irrational things in
the process.
Not
even during the Trayvon Martin murder case did zealous George Zimmerman
supporters react to my articles severely criticizing his crimes in the
terrible death of the murdered teen, in the hateful, death threat spewing,
rage-filled manner Carey's "lambs" have done regarding claims
her voice has deteriorated. That speaks volumes and they should be
ashamed. That's disgraceful. The "lambs" are bar none the most hateful fans on
the internet and considering Carey is a pop singer, that is
weird.
Exactly
who do they think they are. They've viciously and crazily attacked
everyone from Nicki Minaj to Kelly Price for criticizing her, calling
them ugly, stupid, broke, fake, weave wearing losers who don't have
Carey's money - when none of those core 50 crazies "lambs"
who really think they are cute (and Jesus I'm gonna be good and not say
what I think about that), are accomplished at anything of merit or
better looking. They've got weaves (which they slam others for), appear
broke (while calling others broke, who have more money and assets than
they do) and exhibit low intelligence to sit online all day slamming
and threatening others (for free).
I'm
not one to back down from a challenge. They're entitled to free speech
and so am I. As such, I promised on Twitter as long as the spam
continues, so will articles on Carey and I will stick to my word (and
trust she won't thank them for it). Carey encourages this unbalanced fanaticism
in the "lambs" - who routinely parlay it into attacking different
people online that criticize her. They break the law with threats of
violence and death. The last singer I went on a writing spree about,
with exclusives, saw a major,
sustained sales decline. Her name is Madonna. I also asked the public
to boycott Warner's stock over her and their copyright thefts and during that
time said stock price dropped from $27 to $5 per share. My sites reach 5 million readers
through main pages, blogs and feeds...
