If you've ever felt the blues, sang the blues, or simply love
rhythm and blues, Dr. Syleecia Thompson's tell-all book will make
you appreciate this nearly 70-year-old music genre even more. This
insider's narration reveals the dark side of the industry and what
an artist has to go through in order to bring his or her talent to
the masses. Included are over 20 unedited interviews (several
anonymous) from artists, producers, lawyers, managers, and industry
insiders. You'll hear from such greats as R. Kelly and Syleena
Johnson, industry giants Micky "MeMpHitz" Wright of Jive Records,
Brownstone's Nicci Gilbert, and others. Thompson's book serves as a
teaching tool for aspiring R&B artists, novice label
executives, music lovers, and is a resource for those already in
the industry. Fall in love with R&B all over again and
rediscover what its roots and message are really about. Feel the
heart and soul of a music genre steeped in tradition, rich history,
Southern sound, gospel, and urban influences. Dr. Syleecia Thompson
is a professor and academic scholar in Leadership, Organizational
Change, Business and Music Business Management. She serves as a
consultant to small independent labels and has been an industry
insider for years. She is also president of Aneelys Records.
Thompson is currently writing her second book and lives in New
York. Publisher's website: http:
