Giles...you read my mind!!!!!!! I stil CANNOT fathom why ALLLL the fabulous
Blaze tracks from "Funky People" to "Another Dae" to Can You Dance to My
Beat and on and on.......allllll song based house compositions COULD NOT,
WOULD NOT be considered commerically viable in America.......they MUST be
black and independently based, eh?
No one can tell me that there haven't been innumerable house anthems to
follow up Good Life and Big Fun that could've garnered a fat label deal
(providing the artist didn't want to sign to a major as an artist) or artist
deal....and sold millions. Correct me if I'm wrong (and I know y'all willl
;) but isn't the CD buying public predominated by females???? I've not met
toooo many girls/women WHO don't like to dance, hence Brittany's, N-Sync's,
ad nauseam's success--the LCD versions, of course.
Janet Jackson gripped hip-house rhythms and will continue (I think) to put
out dance singles with each and every new project...that has been the route
of her success and charting.
Why hasn't Blaze been doggedly pursued to produce summa her sh*t?????? I
think dose boyz are simply ab-fab from bof an undaground and commercial
perspective.......and guess what...their sound/style is unique. Who woulda
thunk??

Incidentally, I always had a personal fantasy about Blaze becoming R+B
hits, with guest vocalists like Mary J Blige. I still think it could
happen.
