Does everyone know Rob Stringer's brother Howard Stringer has been an executive director at BBC since 2012. I'm sure he put in and upholds Louis om-going blacklisting on behalf of Sony/Rob. Dirty games. It's incredible what Louis has achieved.
I… had no idea.
Tumblr media
Sir Howard Stringer (born 19 February 1942) is a Welsh-American businessman. He had a 30-year career at CBS, culminating in him serving as the president of CBS News from 1986 to 1988, then president of CBS from 1988 to 1995. He served as chairman of the board, chairman, president and CEO of Sony Corporation from 2005 to 2012.[3] He is also the head of the board of trustees of the American Film Institute and now serves as a non-executive director of the BBC.

HSHQ ATTACKS LOUIS TOMLINSON
Last week, in reply to the usual Larrie goading on Twitter, Louis Tomlinson indirectly referred to Larry as "ridiculous childish theories and conspiracies". Revenge from Larries has been swift. They're angry. They're insulted. They're broken-hearted! They're mocking and vengeful. They're undeterred in their Larrying.
In short, they're all the things they always are whenever Louis addresses their stupid bullshit.
BUT!
Other fans of Louis - fans who are definitely not conspiracy theorists and certainly not Larries, oh no! - have uncovered an even darker tale of anger and revenge.
It isn't just Larries who have responded furiously to Louis' denial of Larry.
Harry Styles HQ has unleashed a vicious, vengeful attack on Louis!
Tumblr media
That's right. According to seasurfacefullofclouds1, "when Louis does anything to shatter the 'Larry' illusion, Sony (HSHQ, Irving and Jeff, Rob Stringer etc) get very angry".
And how do they deal with that anger? By posting a "disgusting" video of Louis on Sony's TikTok "that is so obviously targeted harassment against Louis they make it obvious that they are the power that causes industry to blacklist Louis".
Now, I am not a skilled specialist in the nefarious ways of HSHQ, so when I saw this disgusting video of Sony's, I confess it wasn't immediately clear to me why it was so disgusting.
According to Louis' fans, HSHQ's tactics are sly and insidious. So sly as to be almost imperceptible to anyone other than the highly-trained eye of a watchful Louis Tomlinson fan. One might ask, if HSHQ's revenge can only be perceived by these LT sleuths, how can it be effective?
BECAUSE IT JUST IS, OKAY??! DON'T ASK DIFFICULT QUESTIONS!
Tumblr media
The video in question is an 11-second compilation of clips of Louis from various One Direction music videos, soundtracked by the chorus of 1D's second single, Gotta Be You. It's one of a series of videos Sony posted of each of the 1D members, all set to the Gotta Be You chorus and captioned "It's gotta be Niall", "It's gotta be Harry" etc.
Hmm... the disgusting nature of this video was subtle in the extreme. I needed to refer to an expert.
Gracefullou said, "Sony posted a TikTok about Louis (as a 1D member) and used as a sound the part of that song that he said on aotv he was promised to sing only to find out when it was released they used that man's voice instead".
Aha! The clue here is in the use of "that man" - codename for Harry Styles. And of course - Gotta Be You!
In Louis' documentary, he shared the difficult memory of rehearsing and recording a verse in Gotta Be You, only to discover that his singing was not used in the final recording, and the verse was instead sung by Harry. Now, the disgusting Sony video does not actually use the part of the song Louis was referring to, but no matter! And the fact that the same chorus was also used to soundtrack the videos of the other four members of 1D is immaterial...ignore that part, it's Sony burying the lead! THIS WAS A TARGETED AND DELIBERATE ATTACK!!!!
Look, it's obvious. Harry, the Azoffs, Rob Stringer...they're all "still bitter he survived and is thriving rn".
You may think, but Harry is currently on a break, loved-up with his girlfriend. Why would he care that Louis has denied Larry again?
THINK, SHEEPLE, THINK!!
You may ask, "Haven't Irving and Jeff Azoff just launched The Sphere with a series of mind-blowing U2 concerts? Wouldn't they be too busy to monitor Louis Tomlinson's Twitter?"
WAKE UP! REAL EYES REALISE REAL LIES!!11!!
But, hold on - how would Rob Stringer, CEO of Sony Music Entertainment, have the time to prioritise the blacklisting of Louis Tomlinson in such a carefully-planned, time-consuming fashion?
SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP IF YOU CAN'T SEE THE TRUTH WHEN IT'S SO OBVIOUS THEN YOU NEVER WILL!
HSHQ will not tolerate Louis Tomlinson denying Larry, and they will continue their crusade against him in response. End of. I hope this has been educational.

It's sad that the first thing that came into my mind when I first saw Harry's pics at the match was which one of the leeches he was promoting. And the even saddest part is that I was actually right: Rob Stringer is involved with the Luton team. And I guess this also mean he has resigned with Sony, sadly.
But, despite all of this, Harry looks fooking beautiful with this new haircut and it's that I wanna concentrate onto, at least for today. Also, he looks more mature, more adult, with this look and my very adult - almost decomposed - ass really does appreciate that.

I guess they’re referring to Rob Stringer, CEO of Sony Music who recently hung out with Harry at the Manchester- Luton game and also.

Who are these 40-70 year old dudes with their funny scarred hairlines!
I mean! What motivation could Harry Styles possibly have to pile on blacklisting his ex-bandmate! 🤐🤐🤐🤐
Harry totally could get where he is without these embarrassing insider shenanigans.
Couldn’t he? Couldn’t he???

“I was like, ‘Why the f-ck’s he playing it for Rob?’ Because we played Fine Line to Rob really early, and he was like, ‘Yeah, you need a few more.’ And [Harry’s House] was quite raw, but he went in and Rob literally went, ‘You’ve got the record. Just finish it, and don’t f-ck it up.’”
-Kid Harpoon on Harry playing Harrys House for Sony Music Entertainment CEO Rob Stringer. (7 October 2022)

Yaaah we love Rob too
“I want to say a quick thank you to Mr. Rob Stringer, who's also here with us tonight. He runs my record label, and usually you'd expect me to hate the person who runs your record label… But I don't. Not only has Rob supported me through the last 10-11 years, he also leant me his house to make this album.”
This is me complimenting my manager in front of my team because he’s on the call and will be presented really unpleasant numbers in the monthly review.

It must be disheartening to help everyone else come out while you have the yoke of the most oppressive, suffocating beard to date welded tightly around your neck
He deserves so much better

“UNRECOUPED BALANCES” SONY
Tumblr media
Back in June 2020 Sony declared:
“We will no longer apply existing unrecouped balances to artist and participant earnings generated on or after 1 Jan 2021 for eligible artists and participants globally who signed to SME prior to the year 2000 and have not received an advance from the year 2000 forward. Through this programme, we are not modifying existing contracts, but choosing to pay through on existing unrecouped balances to increase the ability of those who qualify to receive more money from uses of their music”
There is no retroactive recognition implied but a forgiveness of what is precisely generated by the creator towards future and has been benefiting labels for more than 20 years. The opposite would be more stealing.
Some indies had already adopted the practice of writing off unrecouped balances after a period of time – so artists would start getting royalty payments in their bank accounts – but Sony was the first of the majors to announce it would start paying royalties through to any unrecouped artist who signed their deal with the record company and hadn’t received any additional advances since 2000.
Isn’t that sweet coming from them…?? *Ironic*
(R.S)He told those investors: “At Sony Music Group we take pride in our efforts to be the most creator friendly company in the modern music industry and we will keep searching for the most principled ways to represent our talent
…and those that signed after 2000??? Will they have to wait?? Labels actively participate in what is promoted, usually the ultimate & recent music/artists, so why modify most recent agreements?
The new commitment means that unrecouped artists with pre-2001 deals will receive royalties from 1 Jan this year, with a new group of artists becoming eligible for such payments in each subsequent year.
With SM & the pandemic consumer behavior is in constant change, the increase of streaming and the speed and ways information reaches the audience has affected the music industry in many ways. I can perfectly understand how a cleaner image & directing to potential investors is key; these movements are being directed to investors and finance contributors.
Also, are those “the most free i have ever be” Harry gifts Rob Stringer often part of that image cleaning? It’s agreed on?

I am not a Taylor Swift fan but I love how she must have all this men fuming that a female musician is more powerful than CEOs and big managers. I bet number 3 is especially mad https://twitter.com/ThatEricAlper/status/1753418455448006757?t=dCDpl0FufSxIkD-NXB449w&s=19
I said the same thing to someone this morning. It’s great to see a woman at the top of that list. And honestly, not just a woman, but an artist. The rest of the list are all CEOs and businessmen. I mean, she’s not there solely because of her music, she’s a businesswoman and I’m sure she knows how to play as dirty as the rest of them, but it’s still nice to see someone at the top who understands more than just how to make money.
