THE Deal with STARTIN OVER OK this is what I understand the problem to be: Latoya doesn’t have a distribution label. She has Ja-tail her co-owned company, like Janet’s JDJ/Black doll and MJ’s MIJAC music BUT she doesn’t have the MAJOR label like virgin records, Sony/epic to actually go out make the album and then place the album is stores stands, this cost hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars to do. But what now puts Toy in a great situation is that she has had a top 15 hit from her own album she produced, wrote and more than likely helped finance. And she did some MAJOR press for it. GREAT. Another thing: The Clive Davis party. According to press reports Clive hand picks each person that was invited to this, Latoya was one. And don’t forget Jermaine Jackson, Toys brother, was signed to Clive’s Arista’s Records in the mid-80’s. And with Clive’s NEW J-records signing people up…. Who know what could happen. Let’s just say that I would not be surprised to see the little J(J records symbol) on the back of toys Startin Over album. But then again I may have blown this way put of portion…………. But ya never know. Peace sfb

Sounds good. I dont no if this still stands but she definately had some sorta deal with Columbia records. What happened i dont know.
They really need to get single no.2 out now.

We couldn't get out hands on Single no. 1!!! This record distribution thing is killing me. And why couldn't she film a video for JWD sitting down Toy's toying is making me cross

Ja-Tail has confirmed theres going to be 2 singles (single no.2 @ the end of sept, apparently). Its annoying that we cant get JWD but it also will help sales if no-one can get it & they can only hear it. Clever Toy. I think she'll film a vid & release that just before the albums out. I would have thought she'd do lots of Eurpoe promo as its very euro-friendly music & most of her records have ended up being euro only releases.

Lol @ Toy's toying ;D ;D ;D Clive Davis and Toy! Interesting idea, it could be fabulous! He'd have to accept that Toy is a europop goddess at heart. We'll have no rent-a-rappers (unless Full Force are still going ;D) or boring filler. Toy has always delivered the goods in terms of ass shaking goodness!
