Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion
Chapter 296: The Clash Behind the Scenes (3)In the music industry, his status is no lower than Kanye’s.
The new album contains 23 songs, crafted by 12 Gold record producers.
This album is expected to sell 10 million copies and become a diamond record.
Being released at the same time as Link’s third album, it’s bound to impact the sales of Link’s album.
The third card is Drake’s new album "Thank Me Later," expected to be released in mid-April.
Last December, Drake released his debut EP "So Far Gone," which shot up to number six on the Billboard album chart in its third week and won the Juno Award for New Artist of the Year and the Rap Recording of the Year.
His new album’s production team is equally formidable, including Jay-Z, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Alicia Keys, Jay Jenkins, Nicki Minaj, and other top rap artists.
During the album’s preview, thirty industry insiders gave it an 8.8 rating, predicting that its sales in the United States won’t be lower than 1.2 million copies.
As for Link’s third album, due to confidentiality, they haven’t even found out the name of the album yet.
Based on the song "all of me" that leaked last year, it’s possible that it’s a romance-themed album. These types of albums are too mainstream; everyone has one every year, and every famous singer has one. Although there’s a market for this kind of album, it’s hard for it to be a big seller.With three ace albums, they plan to encircle and suppress Link’s romantic album, and Scott is absolutely confident in defeating Link on the sales chart.
What worries him is that Link is not an ordinary singer.
This guy is a master of publicity.
Just because Kanye said something bad about him in the media, he latched onto it, created a string of explosive news stories, and almost caused a major social incident.
Such promotional tactics also earned the admiration of this marketing expert.
Link is also a very capable guy, known as the ’musical genius.’
First with pop music, then crossing over to rap, with just two hit songs, he pressed down on all the rappers in the industry.
To say that you are 100% sure to win against someone like that is self-deception.
So, when answering Mr. Kunas’s question, Scott didn’t speak definitively, saying he was confident in defeating Link, but that there could be surprises. Stay connected with
"You guys do your thing, leave the rest to me."
Kunas leaned on the couch, a cigarette between his fingers, and said in a steady voice.
"I understand, Mr. Kunas."
Scott nodded seriously.
"Call me Reed, we’re friends, Scott!"
Kunas said, tilting his thin lips up at the corners.
"Alright, Reed!"
Scott responded with a nod and a smile.
Kunas, with his legs crossed, looked at the ongoing awards ceremony on TV and said, "Guess how many Grammys Link will get this year?"
Scott also turned toward the TV, where they were now presenting the Children’s Album award, and after thinking a moment,
"For the four major categories, Link has two nominations out of four, and for Best Pop Male Vocalist, he’s very likely to win, ’Give me reason’ and ’See you again’ had a big impact, Link could also possibly take Best Rock Song, Best Rap Song, and the chance for Best Rap Collaboration is pretty good too, I guess 5 to 6 awards."
"I guess two."
Kunas lifted the corner of his mouth, a mysterious smile appearing on his face.
"Two?!"
Scott looked at him in surprise and then turned back to the TV.
At the Staples Center, after his performance ended, Link went back to the locker room to change clothes and took the chance to reply to a few messages on his phone.
After taking the Grammy for Producer of the Year, his phone was flooded with dozens of congratulatory messages, from Emma Roberts, Christine Stewart, Paul Walker, Joaquin Phoenix, and so on.
Elon Musk also sent a message, congratulating him on winning the Grammy for Best Record, saying it was incredible, and he expressed interest in having him as a spokesperson for Tesla cars.
Link warmly responded to Elon Musk; he was looking to secure more Tesla shares, and even SpaceX shares, and starting with Musk seemed like the right move.
Moreover, Musk was young and smart, the kind of person suitable for a long-term business partnership.
Additionally, Musk had extensive business contacts, like Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who were also friends of his and angel investors in Tesla Inc.
Through Musk, one could meet more business tycoons and secure more investment opportunities.
The benefits were plenty.
Knock! Knock!
"Come in!"
Link said, fastening his belt.
Creak~
The door opened, and a sweep of golden skirt flowed in, accompanied by high heels and stockings, revealing shapely, well-formed legs.
Link looked up in surprise to see the voluptuous Beyonce walking in, closing and locking the door behind her.
"Here to drink with me again? Aren’t you afraid of being seen?"
Link said helplessly.
Beyonce said nothing, pulled at her dress, and the golden skirt fell to the ground like a parachute, gently landing.
"What’s this, a treat?"
Link chuckled as he admired her figure.
"What do you think?"
Beyonce, with her long curly hair flowing, bit her red lip and moved close to him, pressing against him.
