Here&#8217;s my future apology to Columbia Records for this list. Sorry (lol).
Some times it’s debatable on whether not certain labels understand the significance of online press. I have yet to grasp the notion that half of today&#8217;s music industry is STILL stuck in the Stone Age, but after experiencing my little &#8220;Beyonce interview&#8221; mishap yesterday, [...]]]></description>

Here&#8217;s my future apology to Columbia Records for this list. Sorry (lol).<span id="more-686"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some times it’s debatable on whether not certain labels understand the significance of online press. I have yet to grasp the notion that half of today&#8217;s music industry is STILL stuck in the Stone Age, but after experiencing my little &#8220;Beyonce interview&#8221; mishap yesterday, I think it&#8217;s become quite clear.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p>Though I won&#8217;t dive into logistic concerning yesterday&#8217;s fiasco, I will, however, point out that communication is incredibly vital when dealing with more than two parties. No I&#8217;m not bitter (trust me, I&#8217;m not), but when I&#8217;m sent to do a job, I usually like to accomplish that task; coming back empty handed is for the birds.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p><span></span>Word to the wise: offering a writer an email interview is the worst attempt in reconciling a situation. When kicking me to the curb, make sure you do it 100 percent, backtracking and offering a consolation prize isn&#8217;t good for your complexion (I kid, halfway lol).<span>  </span>After careful pondering I felt a Top 10 would be the only way to deliver my TRUE defeat, lol.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p>So, without further ado, I present the <em><strong>Top 10 Reasons Why Columbia Records Wouldn&#8217;t Let LowKey Interview Beyonce.</strong></em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sidebar: I&#8217;ll be talking third person throughout the whole list, lol<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>10. I didn’t have a fancy looking camera.<o:p></o:p></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>9. Though its a great performance asset, LowKey believes <a href="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/11/06/article-1083621-026242A8000005DC-523_468x652.jpg"><em>Beyonce’s metal glove</em></a> will never be as great as </strong><strong><em><a href="http://www.appscout.com/whiteglove.jpg">Michael’s glittery white one.</a></em><o:p></o:p></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>8. Kanye was right; Rihanna was the best thing to happen to Beyonce. </strong><strong>Sort of like what happen with Nasir Jones; Jay-Z was the best thing to ever happen to Nas.</strong> <strong>Am I lying??</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>7. LowKey did <a href="http://blogs.bet.com/music/soundOff/bet-you-havent-heard-this-beyonce-4/"><em>THIS</em></a> two weeks ago&#8230;&#8230;<o:p></o:p></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>6. After being told NOT to write about Beyonce’s listening session, LowKey found <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1597718/20081023/knowles_beyonce.jhtml"><em>THIS</em></a> on the other side of town and questioned them about it. </strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>5. I did a Top 10 about Bow Wow the other day…..</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>4. I don’t have an <a href="http://brownsista.com/beyonce-teams-up-with-ellen-for-latest-commercial/"><em>American Express credit card, nor do I have “people” to call her “people.&#8221;</em></a></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>3. They found out LowKey thought House of Dereon(her clothing line) was a croissant shop in <st1:place w:st="on">Soho</st1:place> when it first started.</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>2. I might have uttered, “Mann, Beyonce can’t cook” a bit too loud. </strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><o:p></o:p>1. If she ever sits on my couch, I&#8217;m not yelling “BEYOOONNNNNCEEEE” like <a href="http://socialitelife.celebuzz.com/archive/2008/11/14/beyonce_is_revealing_on_oprah.php"><em>SOME</em></a> people I know.</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p>To all the people who just had a heart attack about this list, remember, its ALL IN GOOD FUN, RELAX!</p>
<p>Sincerely</p>
<p><strong>Low</strong> <em>&#8220;Well, there goes my opportunity to interview any other artists on Columbia Records&#8221;</em> <strong>Key</strong></p>
