You Dropped A Bomb On Me

It's never a good thing when artists get dropped from labels. Actually it is pretty embarrassing among other things. Most artists like to downplay their release from a label by saying they asked for a release. Sure thing! Well anyway the artists have been involved in highly publicized releases from their labels. Check them out!

LeToya
Word is that LeToya has just been dropped from Capitol Records and there is a petition to save her and her career. LeToya's new album, "Lady Love" was met with little fanfare so that's when the rumors started. At the time of this type up, I had just read an article about her being dropped. The article may not even be true but it wouldn't surprise me if it were.

Brandy
Brandy signed with Epic Records last year and released her debut, "Human" which was a bomb in itself. Not one to be outdone though, Brandy rebounded by working on a new album soon afterwards. Recently word let out that Brandy was no longer featured on the Epic Records artist roster(a clear indication that an artist has been dropped). While there has been no exact confirmation, I wouldn't be shocked either if it were true.

Christina Milian
Christina Milian was poised to finally have a hit album with "So Amazin" with "Say I" ruling the airwaves in mid-2006. The hype around the album sprung an early leak and lead to the album under performing on the charts. Afterwards it was announced that Christina Milian had been dropped from Def Jam Records and Christina being the trooper she is admitted it was indeed true. Nowadays Christina Milian has tied the knot with Dream and is supposedly pregnant. Labelwise, she is reportedly signed to Interscope Records. Let's see how this blows!

Monica
Now Monica has never actually been dropped from a label[to my knowledge]. Though every once in awhile a rumor circulates about Monica being dropped from J Records. Of course this rumor usually follows after a Monica album fails on the charts. But every time you turn around those rumors prove to be false as Monica is still on J Records. She plans to release her new album at the top of next year.

Mariah Carey
I figured since I'm paying tribute to Mariah this week, I would try my best to include her in my 'music feeds'. Mariah's highly publicized release from Virgin Records for $28 million is a release from a label that many artists would dream of.
