Stage Presence & possibly working with Gifted Tha Go-Gitta again.

Wow after a 4 week delay, It’s Vincent Tucker here again. I hope is well. Everybody’s favorite executive from CWC Entertainment Group has stayed busy as always.

I’m having fun hosting “The Union”, a weekly independent artist showcase held Sundays at Tomcats - Deep Ellum in Dallas. I’ve seen some acts with a lot of potential; needless to say I also saw some performers that need to “step up their game”. I think a lot of times, people in my generation, have forgotten the importance of Stage Presence. Its amazing that artists are forgetting the importance of crowd interaction or participation. You wonder why you don’t receive the attention you believe you deserve, well did you actually give the crowd a show? You wonder why you set up a stand at the club, yet you failed to sell any cds....... Did you try to have any interaction with the crowd?

One of the things I hate the most on a weekly basis, is seeing an independent act who has more than three (3) people on stage with him and none of the other people have lines in the song nor are decent hype men because they don’t really know the words. They just want to be seen. Don’t you think it would be better to have those extra people actually stay in the crowd and make it appear that you have a sizable following? Understand Ladies buy CDs and they aren’t going to buy CDs from people that scared them.

Changing Subjects... “Mars vs. Venus – The Battle of the Sexes” show coming up on November 25th. Stay tuned for details.

How come when you’re respectful in certain situations……you lose?

After initally beginning in June with Club Hush, the "Just So Fly Wednesdays" ended with a bang last Wednesday. The Halloween Party was packed. It was great to end that era with like that!!!!! We'll take a break, but we'll be back. Stay tune to find out where the party goes to next.

Are the rumors about me hitting radio soon true?

It's nice to see that blog I had about the next 10 artists from DFW has set a fire under artists not mentioned.

As with every blog, I give my email address allowing people the opportunity to leave feedback and ask questions.

Stacey from Jacksonville, Florida writes: I recently read through the archived news on the website and discovered that CWC Entertainment Group was involved with a rapper named Gifted Tha Go-Gitta. I was wondering if you could be a little clearer on the departure, whether you knew what he was doing now and if you’re interested in working with him again?

I honestly didn’t see this one coming! For those new to the movement, I managed Rapper/Actor Rickey Carter aka Gifted Tha Go-Gitta from November ‘05 – March ‘06. To answer your first question......No, I can’t go into details and I’m not sure if/when I can ever fully get into that. All I can say is Mr. Carter, Chris Panayiotou (Co-Owner of CWC Entertainment Group, LLC.) and I had a meeting and decided for at least the interim, we achieve our goals in our own separate ways. I’ve had conversations and seen Gifted plenty of times since parting. I even booked him for a charity event late Summer ’06. In one of my last conversations with him, it appears he’s getting ready to take his company to the next level and set to finally drop his debut LP next year. Whether I’m interested in working with Mr. Carter again....... As I’ve said plenty times before, we are in a business, an industry where you can “never say never”. People who are professional and consistently handle their business properly will eventually iron out any differences and potentially seek an environment where both parties can cohesively co-exist.

Last but not least......in an earlier blog entry, I stated my Dallas Cowboys were going 11-5 and winning the NFC East Division Title. I received plenty of emails stating that I don't know anything about the NFL and that the Philadelphia Eagles were the team to beat for the NFC East Title. Now that the road to the division title no longer goes through Philadelphia (we beat them 38-17 Sunday Night), does my prediction look crazy now?

In closing, I’ll answer some more questions next entry. Everyone that has supported the movement, as always I appreciate it. Continue to send the questions and comments to me. Everybody be safe out there. I’ll see you in two weeks!
