Thanks for posting that article, Griz. SF was my home for many years before moving to Canada. You are right, it’s an extremely progressive city and has been known as a haven for artists. It’s fantastic that the major paper (sfgate is ostensibly the online version of the SF Chronicle) gave Taylor such a positive and accurate write-up. I say “accurate” because, as Sexygirl alluded, the cd has sold a million to retailers. The certification process and the rules governing it preceded Taylor’s appearance on the scene. No special favors are being afforded him.

Good morning, Lisa B
Good morning, Metta, Lisa.
Metta, why are you up in these wee hours of the morning?
I just watched “DreamGirls” on DVD. No wonder Jennifer Hudson won an Academy Award. She was awesome. Somehow, I can hear LaKisha doing music like this. She has the chops. I don’t think she would sell well with a CD, but, believe she would be dynamite on Broadway, or in a movie musical.
Morning, Purple! I have no idea why I’m up. I’m sure I’ll pay for it later in the day, when I start to fade, fade, fade.
Metta, better get your beauty rest then. You know JJ will surely take advantage otherwise. lol
Purple – Good point. Back to bed for me! Have a good day/night
Have a good day/night
It’s day (lazy Sunday afternoon, to be exact). Thanks.
Rest well, my friend.
