Ever since I attended the AT&T Holiday luncheon for Mary J. Blige and Porsche Foxx at the Geisha House on Friday, I can’t stop humming her catchy single “Just Fine.” I’m wondering why radio doesn’t show Mary more love and give that song more spins especially considering the album “Growing Pains” just dropped today.
Let me guess: Mary is aging and doesn’t fit the raunchy industry standard that lesser talented female singers have cultivated? That’s a shame because the industry is in such bad shape right now due to listeners and the buying abandoning radio. Sales of satellite radio are through the roof and music downloading is at an all-time high. Maybe next year the radio programmers and label executives will catch a clue and show these lesser talented artists the door.
