This is funny. Been actively involved in the music business for 20 yrs. Have first hand knowledge of what happens with the music. Execs (including Wendy herself) pass on innovative acts every day. They choose to do the "dumb downed" signings as she mentioned instead of signing real talent. Wendy as well as many other so called experienced Execs passed on an innovative collective of artists that are enjoying success today. Witnessed that first hand for myself. And The Weekend is "her artist". Give me a break! The Weekend was a huge success long before signing to Universal. Wow.
