Keri Hilson.

Polo Da Don encouraged her to drop this then tiptoed out the backdoor once she got dragged



Internet assumed she was talking bout Bey and the Beyhive literally threw Beyoncé CDs at her in the street :francis:

She went on a press tour with Timbaland to explain she wasn’t talking bout her but the damage was done and the top producers and writers didn’t wanna piss off Bey by working with Keri.



Damn, I aint know that. Speaking of Polow, I wonder whatever happened to his artist Rich Boy
:ohhh:

Charles and I have mutual friends and what I heard at that time was Jimmy Iovine wanted to sign him under the condition that he became more pop, like a Chance the Rapper or Anderson Paak, and Charles refused so they dropped him. His mental health began declining from there. Charles also ghostproduced and wrote Eminem’s Relapse album.
So is it blackballed if a major label chooses to invest in you and you don’t comply to what they ask? The same goes for Lupe. They had their opportunity and chose not to be apart of the system. And they’re well within their right and may have had great reason to but I don’t consider that being blackballed

I wouldn't say Charles Hamilton got blackballed.

The biggest issue with Charles Hamilton was he was his own worst enemy.

Beefing with his own label mates
Charles making up shyt that he was cool with J.Dilla and Mom Dukez
Charles not taking his mental health serious (His mom had to call the cops on him)
Him getting arrested for punching a cop.
Him not letting Intercope manage his vast body of music he had.

Ect.


yeah I put his and Azealia Banks in the same category. IMMENSELY talented artists. Musical Savants.

Batshyt insane :francis:

To this very day I just wish the worst for Bey and her fukking team. Amerie was a prime example of balance with soul and hitting the radio, only for the machine to say "lolz". Blackballed my queen into a library :mjcry:



The industry ain't shyt for doing that to Amerie. Such a beautiful, feminine aura and her music back in the early 2000s was fire
