Query: lackluster sales prove CD is not good

I read an article in the paper yesterday about the disappointing and lackluster sales this CD is generating. I'm not surprised. I listened to my friend's CD who is a fan of Kim's and found the material too banal and trite. Her voice is husky and not to my taste (my opinion only). Kim Locke sings over the top in every song and more is not better. If her producers would find the right songs for her to sing with decent production values (which are horrible on this CD), and adequate promotion the CD sales would be doing better. Just like Justin Guarini, Tamyra Gray and Fantasia, this CD is not living up to expectations in regards to sales. After all, it is all about THE MONEY in the music industry. These poor kids are having their hopes dashed for a piece of fleeting fame. A piece of advice: Fame is fleeting. Don't pursue it. Stick to your dreams but don't sell or compromise yourself in order to attain that dream.
