Artist first, Evil businessman later|先藝人,後奸商......|先藝人,後奸商......

Hey,

Sorry that I haven't been on to update. Here is why,

  1. My desktop died right before I went to Beijing

  2. I got sick after I got back from Beijing

  3. It was really cold here last week, and it was so warm n comfortable in my bed

  4. I have been house hunting for the new falcon's nest. i have found it :)

  5. all my favorite TV shows have resumed...currently on True blood...

But mostly, I just want to take sometimes off to really relax. For the pass 3 months, I have taken up this sorta manager kinda role for my boys on the road. It was fun and we have achieved alot together, but sometimes I get caught up and lose sight of who I am. I mean, just the other day, we were sitting around, sharing a pizza, and talking about this music business and I was so caught up on the business side of things, that the boys had to stop me and say '' you are still going to be an artist, right?''

I didn't have an answer to that question....

After I got home from Van's house. I opened my macbook and just started web surfing... I started with the billboards and the latest news on some of my favorite musicans... than i went on to youtube to and than I came aross this  Robin Thicke interview he did after he was nominated for Best Male R&B. He was talking about why he think his first album failed. and one thing that he said that really stuck with me was when he said ''....maybe its the truth is the only thing thats gona work for me''....

I was groomed and trained to be a businessman and I know that if I do go into business, there is no debt that I will be great at it. But the truth is, i still love music and i love doing what I am doing now. Performing, working, hanging out with people I love, doing what we love, TOGETHER. There is more than one answer to that question and no matter which answer I pick, I will never know whether if it is the right one until it is revealed to me....

so, I am once again free... free to love... free to be who I am... free to be who I want to be...

嘿,

抱歉,很久沒上來更新了。 原因是,

1。 我的電腦在去北京之前壞了

2。 我從北京回來後,生病了

3。這整個星期太冷了,躺在床上好舒服

4。我在忙著找尋自己的窩。我找到了 J

5。所有我喜歡的電視節目都又上檔了,目前在看‘真愛如血’

但最重要的是我想現休息一下。過去的三個月,我幫到處奔波的哥兒們接下了類似經理人的職務。整個過程不但有趣,我們也獲益不淺。然而在忙碌之余,偶爾也會迷失自我。我的意識是,就前幾天,我們圍著吃披薩,閑聊時談起了音樂事業,而我都集中與商業部分。大家不得不打岔,問我說: 你還是想當藝人的,對吧?

就這個問題,我無法回應。。。

從Van家回來之後,我打開電腦上網遊覽。。。從排行榜開始,接著是一些我喜歡的歌手的最新消息。。。然後上youtube,發現了Robin Thicke 在提名最佳R&B男歌手獎之後的一個訪問。他說著自己對首張專輯會失敗的看法,有句話深入我心 “。。。也許也只有事實對我有效吧”。。。

從小就被栽培為商家,而我也知道如果從商,我肯定是優秀的。但事實是,我熱愛音樂,熱愛現在所作得事。表演,工作,與我愛的人一起,大家做著愛做的事。這個問題有太多的答案,不管我所選擇的是什麽,在答案揭曉前,我也不會知道是否正確。。。

所以我現在有自由了。。。自由的愛。。。自由的做著我自己。。。自由的做我想成為的那個人。。。

先藝人,後奸商

you don't have to be evil to do business... taking advantage of people to get ahead is bad, but building something successful, especially if it helps people is good...

I sit on the other side of the fence as a "businesswoman" but honestly, don't you think there's an art to the business itself? Without the business side working with the art side, the art itself has difficult time reaching the rest of the world. I consider myself first and foremost an artist, secondly a businesswoman. But because I don't believe in my art as much as someone else's, I'd rather support that person's art through my own abilities, if that makes any sense. Art and its production is a process that involves more than just the artist these days. So don't give yourself too much heat for considering the business side -- whether you're supporting the business end or the art end, you're still doing it TOGETHER. :)

roger that. i kinda know what you mean, well, what i mean is that i sometimes have to think about 'business' or 'playing/training/hanging out with dogs'..... the magic IS when one finds work as a passion, and hence, it aint work! Oh, and not all business(wo)men are evil :D
