%20Spin%20the%20music%20tour%20cancelled.jpg)
What do Christina and Crystal have in common? Both bitches had an album bomb in 2010 and cancelled a tour. Yup. C to da K's Spin the music tour has been C to da ancelled.
The reason for Crystal's Spin the music tour is due to her being diagnosed with acute nephritis; otherwise known as 'terrible album sales'. Or in medical terms 'inflammation of the kidneys'.
This sounds serious. And I don't want to be sceptical. But I can help but wonder... Is she really ill, or is this a ruse to cancel the tour in lieu of how badly Spin the music has performed. I said from day one that Spin the music would be spinning so low at the bottom of the Oricon charts, that nobody but Splinter and his ninja turtles would be able to hear it. And now a tour gets cancelled!?
Everything surrounding the Spin the music's roll out was a mess. In fact...shit was a mess from her Best release. "Girlfriend" not getting a music video and an official single release was a missed opportunity to cash in on BoA's popularity and get Crystal a hit. Shoot...you could even say shit was a mess from as far back as Color change!. "It's a crime" was the perfect song to service to Western audiences in the hopes of expanding Crystal's fanbase at a time when fellow J and K-Pop were beginning to get some form of notice in the US. But Sony music Japan dropped the ball...again!
I hope whatever Crystal's situation is, that she makes it through okay. She has a lot of time on her hands to think about shit. And now is the time for her to start making some decisions. If she's content with releasing albums just for them to bomb, then she can just put her feet up and keep blogging about her nails and books she bought off of Amazon. But if she wants that worldwide recognition and to perform outside of Japan (as she's said on numerous occassions that she would like to) then she needs to tell Sony to act right and get a new team around her. Because the current set up is not working. After 10 years in the music game Crystal should be way above and beyond where she's at in her career now. And she herself needs be coming to that realization if she hasn't already, and be trying to do something about it.
