Well now is my turn to vent.

I read all these post and threads about "fans" hating on artists, because they changes their sopund, or because they gained a little wait and so on an so on and so on, it's neverending.

This past week I performed in a couple of places, some were good , some were ok, and some were not to be thought of again!..lol

I started thinking about the people who say that freestyle went down because of the fact that artists went in other directions, and so did producers, etc... then I start to laugh because yes those might have been minor factors in the downfall of freestyle's reign, but not the sole reason. Because if you guys could only see the real way MOST artist (not all) treat each other and talk about each other, you would be amazed!. and I'm not talking about some little dirty look here and there, or he said she said bull shit!, I'm talking about real hateful, spiteful shit. If the artists would support each other in this industry, us the FREESTYLE GENRE would have survived the downfall. I'm sure all this has been said before, it's no big surprise, but if your going to talk about the reasons why it went down, at least know the main reason why. It's all about the SUPPORT!!! and there isn't anything!!!!!!!!!!! FREESTYLE Will never again be at it's glory, because there is way more envious haters than there are supporters, and that's the F****ing bottom line! I have actually been blessed with a new found freindship from a fellow artist who has taken me under her wing, and for that I THANK YOU!!😉 too bad that friendships and alliances like these are very few and far in between.

and to "MISS THANG" please don't playa hate! I never did. We were both at the top once.

jealousy, greed, envy....

unfortunately these things dont just apply to the music industry. this is life. i've ended several "friendships" because people were jealous of things that i had or that i accomplished... they were greedy and always wanted to be better. they could never be happy for you.

i think the same applies to your so-called friends in the industry. u cant trust everybody... one minute they're ur best-friend and hope your album does well, the next they're hoping u lose ur voice so they could shine, and they're sleeping with ur man. lol. people make me sick!

PLAYA HATERS!! 😡
 
WOW!!!

Nyasia...I'm so sorry you're feeling this way.

I wish I could do something more than what I'm doing now..to make sure Freestyle "Now N Then" music is aired more on the radio....supported by people (Fans).

I think the only true thing here is that No matter what you do in life, you will ALWAYS have downfalls..the key is to GET BACK UP AGAIN AND BE STRONGER.

Keep doing what you're doing girl...
 
Thanks people!😀

HI Tony,

you fine looking brotha!..😉

You know I have always supported you guys no matter what type of music you sing. you guys are legends to me as well as friends.

Thanks for your support! you know you have mine too!..

Naya
 
Naya here's another hug girl. I liked what TonyKA says "this time around girl, TAKE FULL CONTROL OF YOUR FATE" and isn't it nice to know they have your back as well as your supporters? Count all your blessings and do YOUR thing. Let them look at your dust !!! A ball of POOF will hit them.
 
Whoa...

Naya,

I never knew so much BS existed behind the scenes. Its petty & childish if you ask me. I'm sorry to see you upset. Maybe this story will cheer you up slightly (or at least make you crack a smile)

When Now & Forever 1st came out, the bing thing was cassette singles, with several versions of the song (you know the portable version of a 12") Anyways...the record store by my house sold out of Now & Forever & I was literally in a pissy mood. Finally, I found some guy that had just broken up with his g/f & since that was "their song" he couldn't bear listening to it anymore.

So, I managed to trade him the 6 singles that I had in my bag that day (which I wont mention here, although I remember what songs I gave away) for Now & Forever & let me tell you, I was one happy teenager.

Last weekend, I was helping my Dad clean out the basement & lo & Behold there was the single all dusty & warped (I had bought the CD so it was allowed to get that way)

hmm..ok so there is no point to this story.

But....

I luv ya!

(hugz)
 
HEHEHE DAWNY, you always make me laugh!..thanks girl.

Yeah "Now & Forever" had 8 versions on it! and one of them being the ALMIGHTY "PLANET ROCK BEAT"!!!...lolol and it's funny because that version made it to number one in miami and Brazil!!..lolol back in 91 and Suzanne and I both had that beat going at the same time back then!

i understand that there was bullshit in the freestyle biz...but their in bullshit in every genre of music...in rap they had tupac and biggie(both are now dead but not rap)...ya the bullshit played a part in the downfall of freestyle but the fan support moved on...i love freestyle and i'm not taking anything away from what nyasia said but we are stuck in the 80's guys...i like the new tka sound...they got out of the 80's...

My fave version back then was "Beautiful String-a-pella"

Not sure if that was the exact name, but its close.

& damn..I made ya laugh...

Bonus!

To Naya

You know I remember hearing these kinda of stories back when freestyle was at its peak, and its so sad that artist of the same genre, backstabbing and hating on each other, when unity is the key, thats the reason hip hop evolved and made it to mainstream, cause of unity w/in the hip hop community, I recall record labels and producers, simply not caring about the artist, but only caring to make a quick buck, but Naya we loyal fans have your back, and rememeber the saying in spanish "LA ENVIDIA MATA.......and those that envy get nowhere in life....take care
 
Nyasia,

I've known about the behind-the-scenes trouble for a long time. I've heard some wicked stories about dirty looks, shady behavior, and virtual fist fights backstage. Fortunately, everyone I've ever met has been as sweet as pie. I guess that's because they know the pen is mightier than the sword. 🙂

Best regards,
Ivan
 
@ Nyasia,

your "Now and forever" song was very popular over here in Germany.........I remember, that it was so hard to get your hand on a 12 of the song.......a friend of mine visited MicMac in NY and took over 50 pieces back home and sold it there.....a other friend gets arround 100 copies from MicMac wich he sold at his own Record store here.

I also have some memories when i go to the Records store and get new stuff.....Freestyle and Miami-Rap/Bass......
Every Friday i walked there and get new stuff and you had to be early at the store to get the stuff, cause he carries only a few copy of each 12.............That was a good time i think it was between 87 and 91........and now..........nothing like this.......
MEMORIES......🙂

to me is a certain individual with a heart of gold. So anyone in this Freestyle industry, which blows my mind, can it even be called this anymore? Is wrong!!! My friend is a carring woman! with a heart of gold!! She is no playa hater or beat biter!


She alway's gives people the benefit of the doubt. BUT!!! Yes! She can be a bitch!!! Take it there and you shall see!!


Just in case your wondering..My name is Wandy!! Pm me with any concern's!!!
 
Hey NAYA!!!!

Hey Nyasia....way to go girl!!!!
It's about time someone told it how it was, and how unfortunally it still is. Working in the music industry I know what goes on behind the scenes. In the rap & hip-hop genre, there is definitly a lot of talk, same as in the Latin genre....but from what I've experienced and heard, it's now where near as bad as it was and still is in freestyle. It really blows my mind to find out how many jealous and hateful people there is in Fresstyle. And the thing is, they'll be kissing your ass in front of you and will be kicking it behind your back. But the sad thing is you can't be surprised...you know there's gonna be someone like that out there.
What does matter is the people that love and support you. You know we here in the SAFIRE camp, including SAFIRE (as you know) love and support you and will be behind you all the way.
Haters hate you cause you have what they want, but can't have. This particular hater definitly wants what you have but will never get it...and that's why that person hates you. If that person wants to waste it's time and energy on you, then that shows how special you are, and how much help that person needs.
Don't worry ma!!!! You know we got you!
 
hey nyasia!!!
