| Yeah, get that BPM a little faster
|
| We gotta make sure people like this right away
|
| We need every fan and every brand behind us
|
| We need you to do this our way
|
| Here’s your written caption
|
| Here’s what you should post
|
| And the time that you should do it
|
| Here’s the credits, here’s the tags
|
| And here, Lauren
|
| Here’s the contract that says you’ll do it
|
| Every time I felt the pressure
|
| They say just remember
|
| It’s a normal feeling
|
| You’re not selling out
|
| Nothing’s too commercial
|
| You said you want this, don’t ya?
|
| You’re an up and coming artist, aren’t ya?
|
| You’re a star, girl suck it up
|
| Yeah I know you got a message
|
| But the message that you got’s
|
| Just not enough
|
| Your demos, they’re alright
|
| But that song with PnB, yeah that shit slapped
|
| Talked to this producer, Lauren
|
| He thinks he could beat that
|
| Said he’d send a beat pack
|
| And you know, come to think of it
|
| Here’s a writer
|
| She can write your story with you
|
| Honestly, she might tell it better
|
| Here’s a hook and here’s my checkbook
|
| Just make sure that you listen, Lauren
|
| She knows things, done this forever
|
| And we just, we just think you need a transformation
|
| Bein' realistic with ya
|
| We see your ideas
|
| But you’re moving too fast, Lauren
|
| Too, too fast
|
| We need a couple more months
|
| You should hold off
|
| Tell your fans you’ll be back
|
| (Voicemail from dad)
|
| Lauren, man, you did not work this hard to have somebody else hold you back.
|
| You gotta remember all the way back when we were on our way to Niagara Falls
|
| and we stopped, I think it was Point Heron, Michigan, for your very first
|
| meet-up! |
| And I’m not sure who was more excited, you or the fans.
|
| But I remember you signing taco wrappers and, uh, just recognizing that there
|
| was something really crazy going on. |
| And um, I kinda told you, you know since
|
| you were just a little baby, you know, «I love you. |
| I’m proud of you.
|
| And I think, in fact I know, that you are very special.» |
| And now I think you
|
| gotta go with «Love, FORMER Epic recording artist» and now «madly,
|
| wildly independent as hell recording artist» Lauren Sanderson. |
| I love you, Bug.
|
| Go get 'em |
