Management Overhaul?

            

My all time favorite artist is Fantasia.  I would love to get the opportunity to manage her. Even though I may not know much about managing an artist right now I feel that her team isn’t on their job when it comes to her career. I have followed her career since she was a contestant on American Idol and I feel that she should be more of a household name than she is right now; and for her talent, not for her mistakes.  For instance, if I were her manager I would start with an image overhaul. I mean, Fantasia is a superstar and she should start looking like one. I don’t know whether or not she has a stylist but if she does he or she needs to be fired. Also, the music that she puts out is not up to par as to what I know she is capable of. It’s not bad music, but it’s not great either. It’s not current enough. With her voice, she is able to take on any genre of music. I know she is a soul singer, but there’s definitely a way to bring her sound up to date without compromising the integrity of the music. I just want to take her to the next level and I’m going to learn as much as I can about managing an artist and this business so I can one day make this dream a reality. So, another artist that I want to speak on is Brandy. I absolutely love Brandy. Her voice is incomparable and she never disappoints when she puts out new music. I must say though that her team has kind of dropped the ball with her new project. It has been four years since the release of her last album and she has a new project that should be dropping in stores on October 16. The reason I say, “should be” is because the album has been pushed back twice already. That’s the first mistake. The second mistake was to drop the first single in May and then wait three whole months to drop the visual for it. I mean the fans are really rooting for her to come hard this go round since her last album didn’t do so well. Also, she dropped a second single one week after the visual for the first single premiered. Her team should have dropped the second single and on that same day released it to Itunes and radio with the visual for it not too far behind. That would have been a smart move.  I mean her team needs to constantly keep her name out there so that people don’t forget that she has an album coming out. She has done zero TV performances. I mean, what’s up with that? I hope that her team gets it together because she can’t afford to lose this time around and all of her fans, including myself, are rooting for her to win!
