KOAR News
Posted July 3, 2007 — in Music News
After months of controversy Russian download store AllofMP3.com has been shut down. Since the closure of AllofMP3.com another identical site has already emerged. The Mp3Sparks.com site looks virtually identical and claims to offer thousands of albums by popular artists for around 15 US cents per song. (TimesOnline)
Which album will peak #1 on Billboard this week? Controversial Kelly Clarkson or Disney teen queen Hannah Montana. Its a close race.
The name Clive Davis is no where to be found in the liner notes on Kelly Clarkson’s My December. Regardless, play nice. Also, KOAR listened to My December. It’s ok. The first single Never Again is the strongest song on the CD, guaranteed.
Matchbox Twenty will be entering into the studio with producer Steve Lillywhite. Matchbox Twenty’s three albums to date have sold more than 28 million copies worldwide.
Warner CEO Edgar Bronfman is now the subject of an insider trading probe according to a French newspaper. Bronfman was allegedly grilled by Paris authorities for dumping significant shares of Vivendi stocks in 2002. (DMN)
Fergie is set to make £2 million by promoting a US clothing firm in her songs. Fergie has become the first star to agree to product placement in her songs, will write and perform tracks endorsing fashion company Candie’s on her second solo album. (Coolfer, Post Chronicle)
Matchbox have already been in the studio since a couple weeks. http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003605892
And my sources tell me Hannah Montana will win the race.

Montana will definitely be #1 this week.

I guess other trannies like Fergie will start buying Candies, then. What she should be endorsing is a vocal coach.

I was right, read Hits kids. Hannah Montana won the race!

I hope people realize they’re listening to modern commercial jingles when they hear Fergie’s songs. (and then not buy it, reject it, make fun of it, etc.) What I’m really confused about it why Candie’s would want Fergie to promote their clothing. She has the trashiest taste in the world.

Watched Fergie on the Princess Diane show and that has to be the gayest shit ever!!! Looked as if the crowd was in a coma sleep.
Anyone can push play and act like they are singing,when will true talent reign again?
