Chicago 1990

Chapter 114

"I saw the news." Mira called the next day, "You and Mariah Carey."

"I reported to you."

Song Ya smiled and said: "And I also issued a statement today, and she is just a good friend, I am just helping to share some media focus, a little bit of spray."

"Huh, when will you come to New York again?" she asked.

"April, soon."

The two chatted casually. Mila's career is very smooth. After CK, she has just won the spokesperson of Revlon, and her photos continue to appear in major fashion magazines.Mrs. Jovovich and William Morris also won auditions for the movies "Scent of a Woman" and "Lamb in Danger".

Both films are released next year, but the entry time does not conflict. Dangerous Lamb was directed by the great director De Palma. Mila’s parents worked as servants in his house. Mila's achievements today cannot be achieved without the help of each other. And Americans like the story of the American dream. Mira will play the heroine, which will have a good topicality.

Scent of a Woman’s starring role is the famous Al Pacino. He and De Palma collaborated well in Scarface. Through De Palma’s introduction, he asked Mira to participate in an audition for an important supporting actress. There was only one episode. Dance, but I heard it will be very brilliant.

"Does so much work affect your recording?" Song Ya asked.

"Hmph, I was so annoying to record, it's all saliva songs." Mira complained.

"Saliva songs are also very popular."

When it comes to the song, the two chatting becomes a bit awkward, although Mira doesn't mention asking Song Ya to send the song now.

The fixed phone on the boss's desk rang, "Talk to you next time, I love you." Song Ya hung up the phone and picked up the handset.

"I heard your new song, it's great, Miss Kelly also likes it very much, but..."

It was Roberto Klevell's voice, "The rap part is too high, which is not in line with her target audience."

"Where is Mr. Motura?"

"Of course, he has the same opinion." Walter replied.

"Thanks, Roberto, I don't mean anything else, and this song hasn't been completed completely. When Miss Kelly came to me, she and I tried it casually, and the results were unexpectedly good." Song Ya was very disappointed. I was also afraid that he and Walt and David Cole might have a'misunderstanding', and explained: "I didn't plan to find Miss Kelly. I also know that she is not convenient to participate in rap songs."

"It's okay, it's a good song."

Roberto Klevell didn't care, "Did you find the female singer in the chorus?" he asked.

"No, it doesn't have to be a female singer to sing the chorus. I haven't finalized it yet." Song Yasheng is afraid that the other party will push a relationship account for himself. If it is a less-minded Walter, this sentence is unnecessary. .

"Is such that……"

But Roberto Klevell still said, "We are competing with another family for a female singer. If you are willing to let her sing this chorus, I think we will have a great chance of winning."

He briefly introduced that a black female singer named Donnie Breston recently terminated the contract with Arista Records. Sony Columbia has long been eyeing this person who is good at singing soul and rhythm and blues music. Newcomers are not actually newcomers. After all, they are already twenty-four years old, and their contract with the first record company has expired, but the contract has not been renewed.

Sony Columbia originally thought that according to the terms of its top record company, Donnie Breston could be dealt with by just beckoning. It never expected that well-known black musicians BABYFACE and LAReid would be killed halfway. The LAFACE record they co-organized is here. Under the banner of Alistar, near the water platform, he also issued a contract to Donnie Breston.

After the two sides competed, BABYFACE came up with two songs a few days ago, claiming that as long as Connie Breston is willing to sign with them,

"BABYFACE, babyface, who would use this stage name." Song Ya said haha.

"Very well-known musician, talented rhythm and blues, has been nominated for Grammy for three consecutive years, don't you know him?" Roberto Clever said.

Of course Song Ya knows. Just pretending not to know, Mariah Carey can’t sing the refrain part of Empire State of Mind, and Fergie and Mila can’t sing anymore. He might as well use this as an A+ record. Sign a powerful female singer, why marry Sony Columbia?

"Uh……"

He was thinking of an excuse to decline, and a person was changed over the microphone, and Motula's voice came over, "APLUS, can you help me with this favor?"

"Mr. Motula, can you let me think about it first?"

If Motula spoke in person, Song Ya couldn't just find any excuses to stop him.

Motula said: "In this way, I will let Donnie Breston go to Chicago to find you. You first let her try to sing Empire State of Mind. I don't have to ask you to sing the song to her, but let you help me stably. Stay with her, delay her signing with LAFACE, buy time for us!"

"Well, I'm fine with that."

He said so, of course Song Ya couldn't refuse.

Motula returned the microphone to Roberto Clerville, and the two discussed a delay strategy, "If you didn't sing this song to her in the end, and we successfully signed a contract with her, then it would be a shame. It must not be exposed." Roberto Clever reminded.

"I understand."

Song Ya hung up the phone, "I just sent it out yesterday, and I gave another one today..." He whispered.

As a result, I didn't expect that the "sent" was not one, but three.

Donnie Breston also has two sisters. Their three Breston sisters group was terminated by Alistar Records. All three are now unemployed.

"Hello." The one who brought the three of them was their agent, a very old-fashioned black man.

Song Ya retracted his fist, shook hands with him, and shook hands with the three sisters separately, "My place is very small, please don't mind." He smiled and looked for the target, and quickly focused on the most beautiful one. It was true. A black female singer with ultra-short hair has the feeling of Halle Berry, a little shorter than Halle Berry, and a bit more'black' in appearance, but the body is as perfect as Hallie, and the convexity is more convex and warped. The place is even more warped, "You are Donnie, am I right?"

Of course, according to Song Ya's aesthetic, Halle's kind is more pleasing to the eye.

"Yep! We admire you and your music APLUS... 1, 2, 3... Let's go!"

Tang Ni snapped her fingers when she didn't agree, "Yeah, for those of you that want to know what we're all about..."

She hummed Remember the name, and the other two sisters added some choruses improvisationally, and then Al’s paragraphs were replaced, and Dile’s paragraphs were replaced, which was exactly three, and sang the song in one breath, and They sing very well and have their own style.

"Wow..." Song Ya clapped repeatedly, really from the heart, this kind of music cell is indeed powerful.

"Yeah!" The three sang, and the atmosphere became enthusiastic. "You have a drink, right?" I don't know if it is Sister Tang Ni or younger sister, and walked into the studio while twisting.

"Of course, Al." Song Ya asked Al to treat them with wine.

"Drink less, we are here to do business." The agent persuaded, and reluctantly took the wine glass handed over by Song Ya, "Their father is a very good pastor, and he asked me to look after them. "He explained to Song Ya.

"Hey, how old are we!" The three sisters protested dissatisfiedly.

"It's okay, just have a good time with me." Song Ya smiled and chatted with them for a while, "Mawota, bring the small bar in." Then walked into the recording studio with Tang Ni.

Mavota walked in with a small bar and placed it in front of the two of them.

Song Ya put the wine glass on it and began to explain the song Empire State of Mind to Tang Ni on the music stand. BABYFACE is a very talented musician. The song he took out to compete with Sony Columbia is not bad, Song Ya I knew that it was because of the quality of this song that Motu took this song as a bargaining chip to stabilize Tang Ni and help them compete with LAFACE Records.

"Well, I'll sing it to you first." Song Ya sang it first. He obviously felt that the other party's interest had risen, and his eyes were different.

"Yes, you just use soul music to sing, and then, forget it, you are a master, I will not give any advice, you do it yourself, and you don't have to be stuck on how you think it suits you."

Song Ya beckoned Dilai outside, "Dilai, let's start."

Dile played the accompaniment, Song Ya hummed and sang part of himself again, "from..." he motioned to Tang Ni.

"In New York, ade of Theres nothing you can't do......"

When Tang Ni opened her mouth, Song Ya’s eyes lit up. Compared with Mariah Carey, Tang Ni’s voice was thicker and her singing style was closer to the original singer, even with deeper skills...

"One hand in the air for the big city......"

At this part of singing, Tang Ni had a slight problem. It was not a technical problem, but a change in the singing method of this part. Her handling of this part was not twisted. Song Yajing listened to this part quietly, and then proposed her own ideas for this part. opinion.

The second and third time, Song Ya became more and more satisfied. If it weren't for this female singer who was being chased by many parties, it would be impossible to sign an A+ record.

"Very good song, very good song..."

When the two of them came out of the recording studio, Tang Ni's agent kept nagging, "Young man, you are such a great musician, great."

Song Ya was a little ashamed. After all, he relied on the Apocalypse plug-in. "This song is a sample of The Moments' Love on a Two Way Street. It's not all my personal credit."

"Really? I didn't hear it, wow, you are so young, only sixteen years old, right? Really young..."

The other party seemed completely convinced.

"Tanny's interpretation is also very good, I am very satisfied." Song Ya smiled.

"Yeah!" Her two sisters cheered first.

"Tanny." The agent tilted her head at Tang Ni and took her out for a private discussion.
