People just off the bus are the perfect prey for these vultures. They want to see how much money they can soak out of these young hopefuls. I found out quickly. Thank God! First off, Francesca, the partner from my own state of New York, got me to do some photos with a "professional" photographer. So I get there for my shoot, and it turns out to be Gerald Michaels, the ringleader of this super-shady operation.
So I do the shoot. This was the most unprofessional shoot in history. He had 2 other suckers like myself getting pictures too. So he basically crammed all of us into the space of an hour. So this sheister made $1050.00 for it! A professional photo shoot is not done like this! Then he gets me a gig with another hopeful. She and I managed to put together 5 songs in 4 days which we did pretty well. I was supposed to be paid $100. Never happened. He said I ruined the show! This was just ridiculous!
After I confronted him on his lack of business ethics, he offered me $1200.00 to do another show. If he won't pay me $100, why would I expect $1200? This man uses the old shuck and jive routine. This is his art and craft. His promises are empty ones. Plus there is an issue of conflict of interest.
This guy is an artist/photographer/manager/actor/whatever else. He acts like a TV envangelist, he claims to be "A Soldier of the Lord". A soldier of the Lord who does not practice ethics and does not act righteously whatsoever. He hides behind the Lord instead of acting saintly. This company preys on the people who are naive with big dreams. They are quick to take your money and will continue to drain as much as they can while not delivering on their promises. Steer clear of these parasites!
