Did Scientology Kill Isaac Hayes?

I don't know what to say about this. Making a video dedicated to your favorite rapper on YouTube is one thing. Making a puppet of him and then getting excited to put your hand up his ass to make it sing along to a new track....you guys call it. I still don't knkow what ot say about this.
Sony Puts "Battery" Into New Urban Label
Sony/BMG is going to give the urban music market another try, by forming Battery Records a new imprint which will focus on developing and marketing young urban talent. The man who will head the imprint will be Neil Levine, who recently ran the urban division over at Capital Music Group.
The imprint will also share an office with RED Marketing Group, an indie distribution company who is best known for it's successful rock & pop acts. This new partnership between Battery and Red also allows them to use talent already with the label.
This new imprint will not only service up and coming talent. They will also, help established artists who may have seen their stock drop within their own labels and feel that they need a non-traditional contract situation. These non-traditional contracts are made to help a sagging music industry and promote artists across multiple platforms such as touring, merchandising & DVD releases.
Battery alreadys has new talent all hailing from the South with Sunny Valentine (Texas), Sir Will (Atlanta) and Lil’ Goonie (Nashville), who is signed to Jive/Zomba.
