WHY isn't Rissi Palmer being played on the radio?

Question

The African-American country artist.If Carrie was sing no air it would be number 1.

Answer 1

Causse Rissi Palmer is horrible singer...her music sucks!!!!!!!

Answer 2

I will be more than happy to reply to your question:

First I will say I do not know who she is, I looked up her myspace page. She sounds just as good as other pop country singers. Perhaps better than some. It is up to her promotional people to get her air time.

However you are the person who should feel ashamed, YOU are the person playing the race card, not the country music fans sitting at home listening to the radio so why call us racist. I do not know why people like you always want to play that card. If she has enough talent to make it she will, if not she will end up like countless other artist, who never receive air time on the radio.  It's called dues.

And FYI....Do you honestly think that if the record companies could play the angle "Black COUNTRY ARTIST" for all they could, (let's face it, they would have one heck of a chance to rake in all kinds of BIG Money) that they would choose to ignore this artist? It's a business to them, and the "blond pigment" does not factor into their bottom line.

Answer 3

Good question

Answer 4

"No Air" is a horrible song, I don't care who's singing it.

And it can't be racism. Darius Rucker isn't having any trouble. Know why? His song is excellent.

And I'm not a redneck, by the way.

Answer 5

Maybe the powers to be in Nashville don't like her music. I personally have never heard her stuff. It could be her agent also, Maybe she just needs a good agent who will push to get her stuff out to the radio stations and onto shelves .

Answer 6

You are the person who is playing the race card.  Heck I want to know why David Allen Coe, Pat Green, Rhett Atkins, Allison Moorer and another hundred artist are not played on country radio.

A black artist would mean a "hot star" in today's country music industry, and like any business, they are in it for the money, so do not think it is because she is black, they do not play her on radio.  

Answer 7

I have no idea why she isn't being played to be honest.  I think if it hadn;t been for youtube I would have never known who she was.  For some reason I think I recall "Country Girl" being played but that could be my imagination.  

Another incredibly talented artist is Miko Marks who I wish would get some radio play also.  She is also on youtube and I think is just as great.

I have no explanation for why this question was removed unless someone felt it was chatting

Answer 8

Nashville makes it's big money exploiting the teenybopper fantasies of white girls(thus Taylor, Carrie, Kellie, and all the cookie cutter blondes). That group does not identify with non-whites. Your questions get deleted because you  make white people feel uncomfortable.
