Clive Davis's ears got problems. He would never give Mariah any acknowledgement whatsoever while praising Whitney or Leona or Xtina as the best singers in the world. I know why? Because Mariah has taken the place of Whitney, his lover, in 90s. She's the one and only greatest solo artist with most #1s, Whitney and Leona can't even get closer given another 20 yrs.
I respectfully disagree. I'm sure Alicia Keys is doing ok financially and so is Leona Lewis. Almost all artists would want to be represented by him. He consistently picks winners, manages them well and both he and the artists make money. That sounds great. Sign me up Clive!
Nice video...Slim Tha Gr8....Has a nice CD ... songs like Loud N Proud ...My Uncle and Me... Chocolate Chip...All his music is created by him and his Uncle... Check Slim out by clicking here and rate Slim Tha Gr8
Hey winterbaboy you're such a disgrace. What do you mean to consider your angelic princess Charice? For your info, she met with Mr. Davis in NY as sort of audition but unfortunately, as expected she performed like Whitney Houston, Whitney is Whitney and nobody else in the world can sing like her so she didn't meet Mr Davis' standards. Charice is a good singer but she got to have the X-factor like LEONA LEWIS who got the deal. Just watch her videos to see what I mean.
do you have a reliable source for you info as to why clive davis didnt take on charice? I mean it could be any other reason apart from the one you stated, like age/maturity for example. I mean david foster didnt want to start composing songs for charice's album until she reaches 18 - i guess that changed.
I'm a charice addict... but i don't think this is the right place to post your comments (for the rest of charice fans)... if u will just compare charice with other singers, it will not help her... it'll just ruin her chances of being a famous, likable talented singer... so please stop and just watch other artists' vids,...

Mr Clive Davis Sir, Can you please consider our Angelic Princess Charice P, She have millions of fans around the world, I think she had a conference with you before in New York? we don't know the outcome of the sad meeting. Thanks Anyway.
Leona is alright, but we all know the career of most balladeers in Arista is patterned after Whitney Houston. just like Mariah and the others that followed, but they shouldnt be compared their good artists themselves.
Clive was the only producer in the world to give artists there money first, the rest paid Aretha Franklyn and other greats salaries like $400 a month, Clive went even had his life threatened over things like that., the man came a long way. check it out.
a true fairy tale story. sumtimes u have ppl like leona in every1's life. nice, genuine, and unaware of their talent, but its their hardwork and gods will that does the job. well done leona, a true inspiration for ppl who do not belive in themselves but have the talent. :)
@kylanjacobs23 unfortunately, she couldnt hear that advice :'(... my favorite singer now thinks she needs to donn Gaga and Rihanna to be more accessible to more audiences, but why follow after her inferiors??? With her soul, heavenly vocals and purity, she needs nothing more, which is exactly what many PoP artists are lacking, which is why they need to do crazy outfits and crzy acts, but leona doesnt need all that riff-raff... X(
SHE IS VERY BEAUTIFUL..IF CLIVE DAVIS FEELING YOU THE WORLD WILL..HAVEN'T HEARD MUCH LATELY..SHE CAME AND DISAPPEARED LIKE A WIND STORM!!!

The main reason is that, Clive Davis has invested with bigger amount to Leona Lewis if Charice comes earlier.. she definitely got the deal...
Like other Idols.... Leona lewis is another trash....
