American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 98 The Time Has Come (Subscription Request)

"So, all your work now has been forced to stop due to 'technical reasons'?" the radio host asked Ryan.

"That's understandable. As for the internal reasons, you'll have to ask Scooter." Ryan nodded with a smile. On this question, he answered very carefully and with full of hints.

"But before all this happened, Scooter wanted me not to change performance agencies, but I refused. The freedom to choose performance agencies is the basic right of artists. I know the record industry is not as prosperous as before, but this does not mean that Scooter can trample on the rights of artists at will." Ryan changed the subject and put Scooter in opposition to all artists.

It was in the studio of the Nashville Channel in the music district where Ryan had recorded a show before. Now that his performance opportunities were cut off, this place became a rare channel for him to express himself.

The management of the Nashville Channel readily accepted it after some discussion. After all, Ryan's on-site response could attract considerable attention.

"You're right, Ryan. Artists are always in a relatively weak position in front of record companies. Even at this moment, there are still countless unfair things happening. Taylor, what do you think?" The host turned to Taylor who was next to Ryan. The two were on the show together this time.

"As a singer, I fully support Ryan's views. I call on all artists to take legal action to protect themselves. We devote our passion and efforts to the music field, but we are repeatedly exploited by people with ulterior motives and it is difficult to get the due rewards. As Ryan's girlfriend, I should support Ryan even more. No matter what happens, I will stand by him." Taylor stated.

The host and Ryan looked at each other, and they both realized that Taylor had spoken a little too directly.

No matter what Ryan did before, it was only directed at Scooter. Taylor, who was deeply inspired, directly called on artists to take up arms, which the bigwigs of the record company did not like to hear.

Taylor Swift has always been outspoken, otherwise she wouldn't have been angry with the streaming media and called on record companies to sell their shares in Sing! and share the profits with their artists. Of course, she has also offended many people.

"So Ryan, what do you want to say to Scooter?" Seeing that Taylor was a little uncontrollable, the host took the initiative to change the subject.

"Not at all. After all, there isn't much time left on my contract with Schoolboy." Ryan deliberately mentioned the issue of the remaining time on the contract.

He could not reveal the specific terms of the contract, but could express it implicitly.

"How was my performance? Was it good?" Taylor asked after the radio show.

"In fact, you have to consider the consequences before you say something," Ryan reminded.

"I'm just telling the truth. I know some people may not like to hear these words, but so what? I don't care what those people think at all. Everything I have today is earned by myself. As long as my songs are good and people like them, that's enough. As for the rest..." Taylor paused.

"You don't care," Ryan offered.

Taylor nodded: "Except you."

In a sense, she is also very clear-headed.

·
More than a week has passed since the radio show. During these ten days, Ryan's life has been put on pause. There are no performances or interviews. He is now lying on a lounge chair on a secluded beach in Florida, wearing only a pair of beach shorts. His sunglasses reflect several 36D slim-waisted and perky young girls in bikinis who are playing beach volleyball.

These six or seven people were arranged by Mary for Ryan, simply to play with him, eat and drink with him, and play poker with him, simply to play poker.

Ryan should not have been so careless during such a critical period, but Taylor was ordered by her parents not to accompany Ryan on overseas trips, so Ryan had to stay alone in Florida.

She was "unwell" during this period and stopped all activities. The release of her second single was also temporarily stopped. It is said that Scott was very annoyed when he heard about it, but he could do nothing about it.

Then Ryan received a call from Mary, who first expressed her greetings and then said that in their line of work, the most important thing is to maintain the privacy of the customers, otherwise they would die without knowing how.

At this moment, the reflection in Ryan's sunglasses became bigger and bigger. It was a woman with very white and natural skin, completely different from the group of biochemical humans behind her.

"Someone wants to talk to you." Daddario handed the phone to Ryan.

But I found that Ryan didn't move at all and was snoring softly.

So she quietly took off Ryan's sunglasses, only to find that he had fallen asleep and had to shake him awake.

Ryan yawned: "Who's looking for me?"

"You'd never guess it, William Adams."

"Who?"

"The lead singer of the Black Eyed Peas." Ryan suddenly lost all sleepiness. There is no need to elaborate on the fame of the Black Eyed Peas, the most well-known group in the hip-hop world, absolutely first-line, and unique because of its style different from traditional hip-hop music. The group was first formed by William Adams and was called Tribal Nation at the time. It was a dance and music group. Eazy-E first discovered them and recruited them under his command.

Eazy-E was a member of the famous NWA group. The group's 1993 song "Straight Outta Compton" established the "gangsta rap" genre. Other members of the group at the time included Dr. Dre and Ice Cube. However, unlike the two future black gangsters, Eazy-E was proficient in singing rather than composing. He died in 1996 from AIDS.

The Black Eyed Peas is one of the few legacies he left to the world. The group has undergone many personnel changes and signed with Interscope, becoming part of Jimi's team. In 2002, Fergie was selected as the lead singer, and she became completely famous. Fergie showed off a new trick at the recent Good Morning America recording, rolling forward while singing high notes.

Ryan took the phone and heard a familiar yet unfamiliar voice on the other end; "Yo, Rui, the road ahead is bumpy, right? I know you feel this way, don't worry, this is all the old tricks of the record company, they just want to scare you, if you are really scared, you are doomed."

"I can help you solve everything. I can handle your problems and even terminate your contract. Universal Music Group is huge. Different record companies are like different departments. Some places can't accommodate you, but others will always be open to you."

"You can work alone or in a group. If you want, you can even join us. From now on, there will be five people in the Black Eyed Peas. Let's make a new album together."

"It sounds great, but I've made up my mind that after the contract is terminated, I will set up my own record company." Ryan originally thought that he was here to win him over on behalf of Jimmy, but now it seems that it was more of his own idea.

William isn't the first top artist to get in touch with Ryan in recent days.

Big Justin, who had lost the battle for Dingri, sent someone to contact Ryan, hoping that Ryan would come to him, and he also promised to help Ryan solve everything.

Li Enville and even Jay-Z asked their men to call them.

However, William was the first one to call Ryan personally.

"It seems you have made up your mind?" William said slowly, and what he just said sounded like rap.

"Is such that."

"Congratulations, boy, you've taken an important step. How old are you this year?"

"19 is old."

"Haha, what an unforgettable 19th birthday. It's nice to talk to you and I wish you all the best."

"the same as you."

"If you need anything, you can always contact me."

Ryan handed the phone to Daddario.

"Have all the fake news been removed?" Ryan asked.

"They have all disappeared, but those rumors on the Internet..." Daddario hesitated.

Ryan's lawyers have been very active in recent days. In response to warning letters, those websites have removed the news one after another.

In addition, many small artists have spoken out on the Internet, stating that they have also been treated unfairly by record companies. Although they are all small and unknown artists, the participation of so many people is enough to attract mainstream attention, and some related reports and investigations have begun to appear in some serious media.

However, there are still some fish that slip through the net, such as the so-called "explosions" published by private individuals on the Internet, which Ryan does not care about at all. As for those who proposed to file civil charges against Ryan, they all scattered like mice seeing a cat and disappeared.

"Also, Schoolboy Records is going to re-stock your music." Daddario announced another good news.

This is also the credit of the lawyer hired by Ryan. According to the contract, the record company cannot interfere with the sales of Ryan's music, and cannot use "technical reasons" as an excuse to delay for a few days, otherwise it will be a breach of contract.

"I thought Scooter would ask for peace with you right away, but I didn't expect that this was all he was capable of." Daddario sneered, and a long-lost sunshine appeared on his face.

Isn't it because I was self-disciplined enough and he didn't catch me? Plus, I had a lot of money, so I had nothing to fear.

"Let's call the boss of Big Machine again now. It's time to have a formal talk." Ryan felt that the time had come.
