Leon Jackson dropped by label 16 Years, 3 Months ago

X Factor winner Leon Jackson has been dropped by Sony after having sold only 130,000 copies of his album. I had an idea this would happen as soon as I saw what the image experts did to him. His own raw talent was buried rather than nurtured. Sinatra he is not.

Now he needs to get a guitar and find some original songs - get back to basics, grafting for success. I wish him well.

Another victim of Simon Cowells sausage factory. If hes lucky he may get a part in a West End musical or end up on a Sinatra tribute show. More likely he will fade into obscurity like Michelle macManus. Expect Alexandra Burke to suffer the same fate next year as the next big thing is wheeled out.

Only 130,000 copies. Sure Absolute Marketing and Distribution should call him and do a direct deal. He will be laughing if he could repeat that independently. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Surely Same Difference will be dropped? I understand that they have sold about the same number of albums. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Dropped off of Portsmouths Spinnaker Tower i hope. They are our local "stars" and they only have to fart and they get their picture in the paper.Thir headline show at Pompey Guildhall was cancelled due to lack of interest and merged with Jacksons underselling tour. The X Factor is a circus where the animals line up for cruelty.

I go to second hand music shops and see X Factor winners still sealed. Go on amazon see them for a penny but £1.21 not worth the paper they printed on I say with these types of music. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.
