Meeting A Deadline In The Bands For Hire Industry

Talents For Asia Herewith States That The Article Below Is Of Its Own Opinion And Is Not Meant To Insult, Offend Or Criticize Any Single Entity, Country Or Individual.



Very few people understand the importance of Meeting A Deadline In The Bands For Hire Industry and what it represents when you delay what you need to do when a timeframe has been set. Reputation is a funny thing, one is often judge on issues like this in the bands for hire industry and this issue is something musicians and agents have yet to pick up on the importance of Meeting A Deadline In The Bands For Hire Industry. It’s actually very simple, clients have needs and their need is to get the band for hire to the venue at the desired time and within a timeframe of their choice and not yours, when you fail to meet the clients deadline, you start to look unprofessional, extensions can be given but is the client has repeatedly told you day in an day out they need a document or anything by a certain date then it’s really your duty to ensure its done. When you delay then you’re in trouble.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Bands for hire have to take the stance and understand why when you are asked to produce a document by a certain date to your manager and or agent or promoter it is paramount that you keep to the deadline. When you the band for hire place no importance on keeping your deadline, you then look unprofessional, arrogant and uninterested. What also happens and very few realize is the credibility of your manager and or promoter is tarnished by your actions. So because of whatever reason, you delayed your duties, your manager now looks bad in front of your future employer and you run the risk of not just being rejected or canceled but also being labeled as an irresponsible outfit and thus sets precedence towards your future employers impression of you. That impression will then set the platform on how you the band for hire are treated by your employer to be when you actually get there. Small delays of a few hours are ok, but when you ask for days or even 1 day, it becomes an issue. Why an issue? Because your future employer has a variety of bands for hire to choose from and that sets you at risk of losing the opportunity.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

When it comes to the promoter and managers also agents, the client will view you as someone who can’t seem to get the job done, thus this will hinder your business because your reputation will get damaged a little bit. Most industry players do talk to each other and they do sometimes gossip as well, so if your unlucky and become the topic of their gossip, then you can bet your last dollar you’re going to be losing some contracts. Being stand up about delivering on time is very important that’s why when Meeting A Deadline In The Bands For Hire Industry, One must keep to it and be vigilant of the situation so as not to lose track and lose business. Not many people get this because they think the business side of the bands for hire industry is very much like a performance, you can be late as long as you complete the required sets and make up for the time. As a promoter, agent and or band for hire manager you have to know that it does not work that way and once you are late then get ready to say good bye to the deal or for a shouting downpour from your client for the delays or you might get lucky and get both or your client may be understanding. But in reality, how many times can your client understand you as your client is also running a business and the band for hire is key to his business thus when the band for hire is late in going to contract it hurts the income of your future employer and could even cause the employer losses.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

If your accepting a job and it requires you to travel then make sure your documents are always ready to go and in order. Also make sure your passports of your band for hire are up to date and are valid for travel. When you lose a contract because you were too slow, then you only have yourself to blame. And if you’re the band leader, then you have automatically hurt the rest of your members and their families by losing a contract. Talents For Asia takes the position that Meeting A Deadline In The Bands For Hire Industry Is Important and should be taken as a serious issue. If you’re always on time, then you are seen as a responsible band for hire and many people will want to book you because the word will get out on your work ethics and standards. Times have changed and as the band for hire industry grows, the race to deliver is on. So the choices is yours, Slack off and get set aside or step it up and have good business for you the band for hire and your manager and or agent representative.

Lindsay Lohan – The Rise



Talents For Asia Herewith States That The Article Below Is Of Its Own Opinion And Is Not Meant To Insult, Offend Or Criticize Any Single Entity, Country Or Individual. 

Just when you thought you will never see her do a comeback, what happens? She comes back! Clean an drug free, Lindsay Lohan is working hard to rise again. We wrote about Lindsay Lohan before and we also did say she either rebounds in the right direction or ends up going all the way down. For the better part, Lindsay Lohan is very talented, say what you want about her, but she does have acting skills and singing skills as well. Now we know she is no Celine Dion but she can hold her own. This new path Lindsay Lohan is on seems to be one of serious mending of broken fences and its good she is doing that. We have said many times that the importance is not in the fall but how you rise again and rise above your daemons. No one is perfect and we at Talents For Asia understand that, what makes us so happy in seeing Lindsay Lohan rise above it is the simple fact that if she does keep her nose clean, that she can be the catalyst of change to all those who have gone down her road. Lindsay Lohan can really be someone you looked up to because she did make a conscious effort to change her life and turn things around.



It is hoped throughout the entertainment industry that this rise will not be short lived and that Lindsay Lohan will bounce back and regain her place amongst the stars where she belongs. No Celebrity Artiste is spared the pressures of fame and no Celebrity Artiste is spared the enticement of social ills. Many Celebrity Artiste are surrounded by facilitators and don’t have anyone to pull them away. And even if there is a voice of reason, the addiction and social settings take over and they are lost until they find them self’s. The problem is we as arden fans then to coddle our Celebrity Icons and seldom force them to seek help or even throw them back into reality. Society at large is also very much to blame because we enjoy the movies and music these Celebrities produce but, society also has an addiction to watching these Celebrities fall and make a fool of them self’s. Hence the popularity and growing business of tabloid news entities which hunt down these Celebrities and waits for them to fall.



We at Talents For Asia believe that Lindsay Lohan’s fall from grace was not due to her stupidity but due to her surroundings of enablers and pressure to be included. Enablers who hang out with Celebrities and continue feeding these few Celebrities drugs should be made to pay a price just as high as any drug dealer. Why? Simply because they could have stopped it but failed to do so because they were riding high on the tail coat of their Celebrity friend enjoying the popularity buzz and the lifestyle that is so often associated with Celebrities in America and the United Kingdom and Globally in general. You can actually  analyze Lindsay Lohan’s downfall and you will find that her friends were more than happy to stay on the party train rather than say, it’s gone too far and it’s time to pull the breaks and get off. If all of Lindsay Lohan’s friends had stepped away at the same time and the press stopped covering her, she would have been forced to re think her actions and her rise would have begun sooner. Maybe society in general is becoming more crude and we do seek out scandals and what not as entertainment.



There was a time when a Celebrity artiste had to have dignity, integrity and morality as a key stature to becoming the sweethearts of the world, however the here and now shows that humanity has evolved and we now seek sex scandals and pictures of Celebrities snorting illegal drugs. We have broken the boundaries on privacy, decency and humility and we have now become more or less the enablers of smut tabloids that print some of the garbage we read. All of us at Talents For Asia agree on one thing when it comes to Lindsay Lohan; Had she had friends who loved her more that her popularity, fame and fortune, she would have been as big a star as Marilyn Monroe was.

Lindsay Lohan’s journey is only just beginning and we sincerely hope that this new path she is on will lead her to a better place where she can hold her head up high and walk with pride, dignity and humility as she did once before. Give the girl a chance, she might surprise you. Always remember the choice to walk down the road of drugs is in your hand and there is never a good excuse to do illegal drugs. Life is too short for you to throw it all away. To Lindsay Lohan, we say kudos on your rise and we pray that you will be given an equal opportunity to prove yourself and to once again regain your regal and rightful place amongst Hollywood’s greats..

Why Do You Have To Dress Down To Go Up Bands For Hire?

Talents For Asia Herewith States That The Article Below Is Of Its Own Opinion And Is Not Meant To Insult, Offend Or Criticize Any Single Entity, Country Or Individual.

This is a topic we are very concerned about when is comes to bands for hire, simply because we see so many bands for hire now who’s female members wear less and less clothes on stage and in some situations even just a fancy bra or bikini top. Also some artiste now days in the western world and the Philippines tend to hang at the very fine line of artistic nude to playboy style photography shoots which really has nothing to do with their musical ability. We at Talents For Asia reject the idea that a women need bare all to sell their music. Talent is not measured on the size of your breast or on the roundness of your ass. Real talent is measured on your capability to captivate the listener with your vocal performances and stage presence for those of you who are bands for hire and for dj’s for hire a good clean mix with the right flow and song selection will be better then you performing topless.

ASIA'S PREMIER TEEN DJ
For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Talents For Asia is not saying we are old fashion but talent has to be recognized before anything. Using sexuality to sell music is really a desperate and degrading act which borderline prostituting yourself just to get herd. If you are into nude art then do a proper series of artistic nude photo shoots whit class and elegance, and make it about the art and not sleez and sexual hints. Women in bands for hire, Why Do You Have To Dress Down To Go Up Bands For Hire?. Please have some self respect and dignity for yourself. You can be liberated and sexually open minded, there is nothing wrong with that, but don’t cheapen your craft just to get booked or to sell an album. You are either a good performer and can go far or you simply suck. Those are the only two ways it can go, but to use your body to take yourself to the next step is as good as prostituting yourself for money.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Employers need to stop degrading women in music and sexually objectifying them. If you’re an employer, would you allow your sister or wife and or girlfriend to do that just for money? Please remember every woman is someone’s child, sister, wife and or girlfriend and when you degrade them you are actually disrespecting their family and spouses. Yes! clubs need to make money to stay open, yes you need the women to be attractive but there is a line you should not cross. There are many fashion styles that you can use to bring out the sexy in a female musician and you don’t need them to be in their two piece bikini type suits. If you have any self respect for your mother, wife and sister then we would hope you will also accord the same respect to female singers or musicians you hire to work in your entertainment venues. If you as women want to be half naked or naked on stage then we suggest you stop singing and make your way to America where they have many strip clubs and you can earn money dancing there without tarnishing the image of the music industry.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Why are we so harsh? Well because the music industry is always been attacked for negativity from drugs to alcohol abuse to sex scandals. It’s time you understand that you don’t have to be naked to be sexually attractive and you can dress properly and still look as beautiful as you are. The focus should be on your ability to perform without music stands in front of you, your focus should be on how to capture and hold your audience’s attention with your vocal capability and onstage persona without selling your pride and dignity. If clubs and entertainment venues are given no choice, they will still book your band, thus it will be good if all bands for hire can do a makeover and change their style of dressing to look more musical and less sexual. Your body is your temple and for your husband or boyfriend to worship, It not a hotel room for the public to check in when they feel like it.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Club owners need to start looking at the quality of performance and not the quality of female members of the band for hire they want. If club owners focus on quality then they will see that they will also attract a better quality of clubbers and gain a better social standing perception because they have not made their venue a sleezy place. What also happens is this will change the market because bands will have to raise their standards and not drop their pants to get jobs. It needs to be said and we are screaming it out and loud because the degrading of women in the bands for hire and music industry has gone to far. We at Talents For Asia hope all of you understand that you really don’t need to show your body to sell your music and you should focus on raising your standards in performance and presentation. A great band is a band that can hold the crowd to the end of the night, not a band with half naked women on stage. Please stop degrading yourself.

Stand up And Self Regulate, Filipino Bands For Hire

Talents For Asia Herewith States That The Article Below Is Of Its Own Opinion And Is Not Meant To Insult, Offend Or Criticize Any Single Entity, Country Or Individual. 

In the recent days, so much conversation about regulating the Filipino bands for hire market by Filipino players of the market them self’s has taken place. Some talks of even raising the issue to an NGO (Non Governmental Organization) has also been brought forward. However  very few will realize that this segment of the Philippines Job Market is actually very small compared to their overseas general labor force, therefore hopes for regulation will fail and be blown away because the segment is too small for government to invest in, as it is there is already so much red tape for Filipino’s to leave the country and it is because the government is trying to protect their own people and save them from human trafficking syndicates. The problem is the current mountain of red tape in employing a Filipino is already tiresome for the employer and costly, if you further regulate and over regulated labor market, you will drive away potential employers.

ASIA'S PREMIER TEEN DJ

What needs to be done is for promoter and agents to Stand Up And Self Regulate Filipino Bands For Hire by creating a minimum wage to set the standards firstly. If all agents and promoters can agree not to undercut each other and to only accept bookings for Filipino bands for hire which promote a fair wage and proper basic needs which are paid for by the employer then the self regulation will boon well for the industry in the Philippines. The problem is the market is big  but the number of agents out do the number of Filipino bands for hire so everyone is almost selling the same band and what happens then is every agent will slash prices to get the contract, but without slashing their commission. The problem with the bands for hire market in the Philippines is not that there are no good agents, the problem is the morality of some agents are questionable and some bands are already drifting away from these types of agents.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

In order to Stand Up And Self Regulate Filipino Bands For Hire one has to think of the Filipino bands for hire before thinking of their own profit margin, which means you have to remove greed from your heart. How possible that is in reality is really almost impossible. Talents For Asia knows of many agents in Philippines who are not POEA certified but have stronger moral standings then those who are certified. There are even certified POEA agents who post positions on Facebook for as low as 400 usd per month for markets like Japan using singers as a front for marketing GRO’s which is basically Human Trafficking and or Modern-Day Slavery. All this can be stopped if Filipino bands for hire and the various agents and promoters agree to a truce and work hand in hand to Stand Up And Self Regulate Filipino Bands For Hire. By self regulating you can actually work together to strengthen the industry and make it independent of government support. When the Filipino Bands For Hire market is strong and stand alone, you will then find government knocking at your doo trying to be part of what you have created to protect yourself, and what that does is give you more power to negotiate with government to demand for simple and easy steps for booking of Filipino bands for hire.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

It is very easy to say we want to form a union, in reality it is impossible because everyone has a different way of operating and has a different target market and has different strong holds, so you would be asking for too much if you were to try to unite people who are already established players and who may not agree to certain conditions because it can harm their respective businesses. To Stand Up And Self Regulate Filipino Bands For Hire one has to be able to walk away from a deal if the deal does not provide the right conditions.

Many promoters and agents tend to grab everything they can because it’s like twenty (20) people trying to share a small cupcake. However if one is strong willed then you can have bite sizes pieces of the cupcake and get to taste it as a group and there will be enough to go around. Sometimes we have to look beyond us to resolve the issues at hand so it is our hope at Talents For Asia that agents and promoters of Filipino bands for hire will stop accepting bookings for anything less than 700 USD per month per person so that we can as a collective set a minimum wage for the industry and for the betterment of Filipino bands for hire. If we as players in the industry continue to squeeze Filipino bands for hire then very soon we will have no bands for hire and we will be left out in the cold because the majority has already self regulated and is working toward better employment conditions for Filipino bands for hire.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

We at Talents For Asia clearly are against abuse of any musicians for hire from any country globally and we will keep shouting as loud as we can but in the case of Filipino bands for hire it must be a collective of Filipino bands for hire in partnership with agents and promoter who meet on a level playing field and Stand Up And Self Regulate Filipino Bands For Hire to better protect them from the abusers.

So Many Listen To Music, Yet So Many Talk Bad About The Music Industry







Talents For Asia Herewith States That The Article Below Is Of Its Own Opinion And Is Not Meant To Insult, Offend Or Criticize Any Single Entity, Country Or Individual. 

Globally more than 80 of the world’s population listens to music, all types of music from different genres, so why is it that so many have the view that the music business is a place where you can fail more then you can succeed. Why is it that so many also look down on people who work in the music industry? Yet this very same people who go home and listen to their favorite artiste or dj do it so freely. Many parents have the same view that music will get you nowhere, now if this is true then why do the parents listen to music from the carpenters or any music for that matter? Should you who denounce an industry which entertains you be given the rich privilege of listening to the works of the music industry players? We think NOT, please climb back up whatever tree you live on if you can’t show respect to player in the music industry.

ASIA'S PREMIER TEEN DJ
For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Every piece of music you listen to has a story and has history and emotion, unless you’re just that ignorant, you will see that a great effort has been put forward to deliver each an every piece of music. Music the only industry where emotion lives. You can get happy or sad by listening to various songs’, yet you so willingly knock down its industry players with zero respect. Even doctors who are of world class standing use music in the surgical theaters to create a rhythm and calming effect. Yet so many parents are so close minded and do not get the essence of the industry. These few should have no music in their lives and see how it feels to live in a world of silence.

There are even a select group of kids who spend so much money on music but yet when one of their friends chooses a music career, they attack their friend instead of lending support and showing their love for their friend, Talents For Asia has seen this happen and we must say that people like this are entitled to their own opinion but if they are going to insult the music industry then they them self’s should not be allowed to even listen to music and or watch any programs with music in it. Why so harsh? Because every piece of music created is from hard work facilitated from the artiste them self’s to the producers, sound engineers and right up to the record label. Its not easy to produce a single song what more 12 or 13 songs for an album, why do you think celebrity musicians for hire don’t travel during the recording period. Many hours are spent on a single song. So you have to give props where props are due not just sit in silence and enjoy the music when you want then turn around and talk down to players of the industry.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Materialism has already engulfed the world, humanity is more greedy, cruel and less caring and grateful, why must you make it harder?. What has music done to you? If you as a parent do not understand how the music industry works and your child wants to be a part of it, than you should make the effort to learn. But if you behave like a hypocrite don’t you think you are then setting a bad example for your child as a parent? And would you risk your child one day walking away from you because you killed their dream and they found out you did it?  A lot of Asian parents have killed many a child’s dream and the world at large have lost potential greats, its time for parents to wake up and understand that every child must be given the right to follow their dreams no matter what they are and learn for them self’s. So Many Listen To Music, Yet So Many Talk Bad About The Music Industry, this is very sad and very insulting to players in the industry as they strive to deliver the best from their hearts to your ears.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

The music industry is a wondrous place where creativity and talent shine the brightest; the music industry is a power house of emotion, yes! There are drugs and bad elements in the industry but the choice to stay away from such elements are based on the responsibility of the individual and if you have raised you child well, then what is there to worry about? People always fear what they don’t understand and they try to shut it out without trying to understand because of their fear of failure before even allowing their child to try. Some even provide the illusion of support with greater hopes that their child fails and goes back to the path of the parent’s choice. How you raise your child is your choice, but end of the day when your child walks away from you don’t blame the music industry, blame yourself for your own failures.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Talents For Asia knows So Many Listen To Music Yet, So Many Talk Bad About The Music  Industry and we hope through our advocacy of fighting for the rights of musicians for hire, bands for hire and dj’s for hire people wake up and stop being small minded when it comes to the music industry, as the music industry has the potential to turn talent into global icons. Bono of the famed U2 is a classic example of what a real successful celebrity musician can do if he has the right platform and footing and remains grounded. Family plays an important role when one steps into the music industry so be a supportive parent or family member and stop at nothing to do it…

A Day In The Life Of J Quest - Petty Bickering And Much Ado About Nothing


THE VIEWS AND OPINIONS EXPRESSED BY THE WRITER ARE PURELY OF HIS OWN AND NOT OF TF ASIA TIMES OR  TALENTS FOR ASIA. AS SUCH WE STRESS THAT THE BELOW STATED IS NOT MEANT TO OFFEND OR CRITIQUE ANY SINGLE INDIVIDUALS, ENTITIES AS WELL AS RACE & RELIGION

Just a few months ago we were a struggling band in a city where we cannot even get a regular gig. Most of us had side projects and gigs on the side to earn while some have day jobs. We were on the brink of breaking up before this booking came along. And we would like to thank Tf Asia for saving this band. 

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

6 months into this booking reality has now struck. People will never really understand the importance of what they have until it is taken away from them. Desperation takes away our pride but too much of everything bloats our egos too much that we believe we are kings and queens of the world. A freshman thinks he knows better than the veterans. Another one is stuck in his world where there is only himself and his girlfriend. These people are blessed; so much in fact, they just don’t know that they are. So many musicians, including myself, have been to a lot of bookings where there is no assurance, there are always risks and there are debts to pay before you even got your first salary. These 2 first timers never got to experience that. Now they believe they are better than most of us who have been “there”. Now they have what they want, new equipments, new gadgets, money to spend, and now they even believe they are untouchables. They don’t clean up their own mess, they don’t do the chores unless told to do so, they decide what they want for their own, something I never did when I first started out in this job. Wow, times have really changed, like the climate.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

The others are locked in the idea that we are not doing enough, some think that the others are doing too much, and still some just wants something from someone else. In short, when you spend too long in a group and you believe you are not desperate anymore, then you start bickering and find faults that were not there before. Now everything is not as important as when you needed each other. Now everything seems to be insignificant. Why is that?

FASHION HOUSE MUSIC GURU | LIVE MASTER REMIXER
For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

When we were back home, we cared for each other like family. We took care of each other, followed rules and never got into a fight. We just wanted to understand each other’s faults like any brother and sister would. Of course, again, we were despondent during those times and we needed each other to earn.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Now it’s endless petty bickering and much ado about nothing. Every little issue becomes a big problem because everyone thinks that someone is always better than the other. When you are already earning, though it’s still not even enough, you start believing you will set for a long time which is not even true. In the past week, I have seen my group backbiting and pointing out each other’s fault, me included. The disputes are miserably miniscule and amazingly stupid sometimes. It’s really amazing to see how mature people become so childish sometimes, it’s really amusing. I have heard of comments like, we can form another group, or take him out of the group, or I don’t want to contribute anymore, etc. etc. etc. The internal strife is destroying the group slowly but surely.


For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

We cared so much for each other when we were desperate, why should it change now? We should get through this phase as a group and become better collectively and individually. Trivial squabbling and misunderstanding should make the group stronger. Let us not forget the blessing that has been given to us and more importantly let us not waste how we can help each more by peacefully working and living with each other.

An Agent With Integrity





Talents For Asia Herewith States That The Article Below Is Of Its Own Opinion And Is Not Meant To Insult, Offend Or Criticize Any Single Entity, Country Or Individual.

Two days ago, we at Talents For Asia posted an article which denounced the employment of Filipino singers and musicians for hire at 400 USD per month (CLICK ME TO READ ARTICLE). The poster of the article since being confronted defended his stance by saying he was not looking for singers but GRO’s then he went on to another group where our article had gathered comments and changed his tune to saying the industry needs to wake up contradicting his own words and saying the music industry needs to wake up. I think we all know that shows that this person is a leaf and bends where the winds blow, So is he An Agent With Integrity?

ASIA'S PREMIER TEEN DJ
For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

First of all being an agency that is POEA accredited in thePhilippines does not give you the legal mandate to promote jobs for GRO’s which are as close to prostitutes as you can get. Secondly if any government agency saw that post they would be on fire to nab this person because it is a clear violation of the trust a musician for hire places in your hand thinking your job is legit and legal for a singer when in actual fact you’re looking for GRO’s. An to the best of our knowledge, POEAdoes not approve for GRO work. So what has really happened is this person, has firstly made the mistake of posting such and add, then arguing to defend his post when he should have promptly apologies and removed his post.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

Now even though deleted, it is archived on Facebook and at the request of the Philippines government can be produced. But that is his worry not ours. We clearly state for the record, that we do get request from Japan for so called singers who can also sit with guest but never have we sent any Filipina to work at these jobs because for us the question of civil responsibility and morality does arise as we don’t want to be part of earning money from such acts as GRO work. Also for public record the salaries offered in the inquires we received were at the lowest ofUSD 900 per month excluding tips, drink bonuses and bottle commissions. But so sorry we are in the MUSIC BUSINESS NOT GRO business.

For Bookings, Please Email - talentsforasia@gmail.com

For us at Talents For Asia, the GRO world is as good as sellingprostitutes and is as good as being a part of Human Trafficking and is something we harshly DO NOT SUPPORT and never will. So if we are extremely harsh in our critics of such acts, then you now know why. For us it’s not about the moneybeing poor is not something that we are concerned about because it is better to be clean  an poor then dirty and rich. The collective at Talents For Asia have taken the stand that we have made mistakes when we started, we do apologies for them and we are on a path to better our self’s. We see the world through the eyes of the musicians and we feel their pain. We have said it many times in so many articles even as we are far from perfect and we try our best to secure the best deal possible for the bands for hire we promote, And where we need to we reduce our commissions even by half so the band can have that little extra, we do and That is what Talents For Asia is about. We are about trying to secure the best deal possible for everyone concerned with all legalities met and we will continue to shout, scream and kick about the abuses and people who abuse the music industry players via our articles.

Talents For Asia is not seeking fame, fortune and government recognition, we are merely seeking the thank you so many musicians have already said to us and we are grateful for that. If we have in some way helped you take care of yourself better, then we have done our job and that is the best reward we can ever ask for. There is a saying that karma is always around the corner and you get what you give, We hope that what we give to you is good enough for you to pass it on and that will create change and spew an ocean of goodness thus good will come back to you. Let not money and power be the sights you look to in evaluating your status but how much real good you can do in today’s world which is consumed by greed. Learn to bow you head and admit your mistakes, learn to say I don’t know, please teach me, learn to say I am sorry, and most importantly, learn to be An Agent With Integrity so that you have the respect of many and not the hatred of many.

Life is to short to profit from pain and if you think sellingGRO’S is ok then you need to get your freaking head checked. You are not only causing the young lady emotional suffering but you are a part of stripping away her dignity, morality and you are to be condemned to hell if needs be for such grievous crimes against a fellow brethren of human society. Talents For Asia has a  lot of respect for the Filipino Musicians for hire and Filipino bands for hire as they are truly gifted with talent, but it is sad for us to watch the talents being abused by their own people to profit selfishly andnot to help grow that talents internationally and help themusicians for hire or bands for hire attain global integrity as world class performers. We hope that all of you wake up and become Agents With Integrity and grow with the industry to make it cleaner, and more profitable for everyone and not just your self’s. Why can’t we share what we have and live in peace? It is not hard to do. Luxury and status is not as important as dying with a clean soul knowing that you can tell your maker you did everything in your power to help your brothers and sisters when you lived amongst them.
