This girl got screwed by her first Record Company!

The other night I was talking to some people and I remembered this girl that went to school with my brother. She is pretty talented singer but got screwed by the first record company she had recorded with. The company basically stole her songs and her rights because the songs as far as I know were not copyrighted at the time so... I thought I would post some of her music up here since I found her on youtube. Just giving her some love and maybe if you like her you'll buy some of her shit on itunes or w/e.

And yes dimplez "Try" is the first song on the list just for you 😉

Nah, I don't think so :/

She appears to be creative enough for it not to matter too much hopefully... All the songs I posted are all knew lol... only one that I think was on that demo was the very last one maybe?

She had some good songs on that demo to be honest.

i meant the always need you one, but you already have that posted also 😛

Yeah I liked that one too... and I think it was on her demo with that first record company :/

Oh wow Poisson! haha sweet! I had no idea she was so popular on youtube till like yesterday or w/e. But still I thought I'd help a girl out by posting it here. I really hate when people get screwed over... well I guess everyone does. I'm glad things seem to be looking up for her though.

OMG I get screwed over all the time, need you in my corner!

I found her when I was searching 'Overjoyed.' I get enraged when people butcher the fuck out of Stevie Wonder's music. But her rendition got me to subscribe to her channel. 🙂

She had a really great version of Etta James's "At Last" but can't find it 😢

I'm sorry that this girl was abused like that. She is very talented and I look forward to listening to more of her work.

I'm glad you liked it Vulcan! 🙂

Noted.

I have that demo or what I believe to be that demo.. I don't know all the details about it... my brother does. But what I thought was funny is I had started listen to this chick's CD more than my other stuff and I didn't even know her! Just some random girl my brother new from school who he performed with. I think she really has some great creativity.. in writing songs. I mean it is all guitar based half the time because she plays the guitar but on that CD things were a lot more studio formatted with all kinds of background music. Like the last song on that list I posted earlier.. the one called "Always Need You" that song sounds like an R&B song on the album.

haha aquapiscescusp ^.^

Fine print--every contract comes with some and it should always be methodically scrutinized before a pen ever touches the paper. Unfortunately creative people get screwed a lot in this world. Deals like this occur everywhere, the music industry, publishing, and sometimes even art brokerages. They basically buy the rights to the artist's work against a point system in sales--notoriously leaving the artist responsible for many of the start up and PR costs--and then leave themselves ways out of the contract. It's a pretty hard case to sue for that and she would likely end up spending more in legal costs than she would earn back for damages.

Yep, people are kind of stupid, don't feel too bad for her...
