So after months of reading thru contracts and negotiations, sum new developments arose today.


In fact, I woke up to multiple e-mails from attorneys this morning with the news that...


The plans to sign a record deal with Kabunk Records (Bunky), no longer exist.  That's it. I'm not dragging this out and explaining all the insignificant details.  


Basically, it felt wrong and the universe was working to our advantage by giving both Bunky and I the signs to NOT go through with it.


Sadly, but as always NOT discouraged, I shall march on and continue to write new music and perform live and hopefully touch many more lives!!


Bunky has plans to still release the record which HE owns, digitally.  He believes in the record and wants to share it with you.  I BELIEVE that he will do that.  


Dear friends, fans, supporters, believers and listeners, THANK YOU again and again for the daily inspiration, motivation and love that you provide, even through these cyber waves, I know it, I feel it.


Yours',


Dilana.



Scott

 
Sorry the deal didn't go through. But there are always reasons for these things. There is another opportunity that will present itself to you and you will know it is right and will happen.


Hope all is well.

Much love
Scott

OW.......that sux........ don't really want to know the full story cuz it's gotta be depressing for you to tell it and for us to take it all in too.
:(

Moving forward......... Have an AWESOME TIME in Cape Cod! Wish I could be there too! :)

Love,
Sarah

When the hell are they gonna hear and see what we hear and see??!! Good God already!!!! You are more amazing than the crap out there right now! So fucking frustrating! But girl, you are so strong....it speaks volumes of you and your love of what you do to continue on despite it all. I will never ever forget the first time I laid eyes on you and heard that amazing voice! I count you among my music inspirations...record deal or no fucking record deal! I don't think I got to tell you the night we met (cuz I was too busy annoying you with my drunk ass!), but you did inspire me back to the stage.
Honest to God, my honey! Take care and hope to see you in New Orleans real soon! Get your ass over here!!! Always~ Dana

Dilana,
So sorry to her the news. But things happen for a reason and sometimes we don't have the answers to them. I have all the faith in you that this might be a good thing for you. You are a Beautiful , carring person with a Super Soul. This is just a little set back for you. I know you must be feeling pretty bad right now. But Dee you will conquer this like you have done in the past. You are still going to touch many many lives with your awesome voice and beauty I really feel that. My Angels are sending me this feeling that you will be OK. Keep writing your music and doing concerts and let the whole world know who DILANA is. I know there are TV stations that would Love to put one of your videos on. One station could be LOGO.

Love&Peace,
Denise

Awe sweetie, that is such hard news! I know everyone involved was hoping it would work out. These record deals are just such complicated issues, more so than folks can imagine. Something will come your way, you are way to insanely talented!

Peaches,

If the Universe was giving you all these signs that it wasn't meant to be then you and Bunky obviously made the right decision. Maybe it's because something BIGGER and BETTER is waiting for you and just hasn't been revealed yet. Your music and voice are incredible and maybe it's just going to take some more baby steps to make it happen so the world can hear more of the awesomeness that is you.

Wish I could make it to the Cape for Cinco de Mayo but it's a bit to far for me to drive. Come stop in Connecticut and play on the way home though. We'd love to have you.

Miss you heaps!

Much Love,
Rachael (Strawberry)

Darci Monet - AVAILABLE ON ITUNES!

 
Darling Dilana, you don't NEED a label! Throw that sucker up on CDBaby (which will send it to iTunes for you) and we'll all buy bunches of them! You'll probably make more money, too.

Be strong and courageous.

Hey there Dee, bummer, but glad you're staying positive. LOVED seeing your show last week at The Brixton and look forward to seeing you ROCK THE HOUSE again real soon. Besides., I get you were saving the really good stuff for your NEXT album!!!

Love Always, Raul

Have you ever considered doing a rockin cover of "I Built the Garden for Us" by Lenny Kravitz? Don't know why, but I heard you doing it... Like you, it's got lots of soul! Listen to it, Think about it!

Cheers!

Don't give up. From the few songs that I have heard from your album, I think it is worth it!

Damn its worth it to even go guerilla Nine Inch Nails-style and release it yourself with the $$$ from the gigs.

You'll figure it out, I am sure!

YOUR GUITAR

 
Dear sweet Dee - you know how I feel about things. Always here, always will be ! Will continue to spread the word and help you in any way I can. Will start tugging on some more strings and calling in back owed favors. I know it’s a long hard road but with your talent and gifts, it will take you where you want to go. You continue to amaze and wow everyone with all that you are and do. You are a blessing to the universe song and don’t ever forget that fact. This will be yet another avenue for new material. If you haven’t lived it, you can’t write about it much less express it to others in a way that they will connect. Your heart is big and the world needs you. Your song shall be heard ! The dark forces always interfere with something positive and as full of light as you are. They want you to fall back. This will never happen because you are strong with an army of Angelic followers. The light is up ahead and you are near.
Loving you more than ever, Jerry SDD

Ah, man... disappointing. I hope and pray for your success no matter what label you end up with. There's a reason for everything and I'm sure in time you will know why this one didn't work out for you. I'm usually more into the music than whoever's singing, but your voice has captivated me ever since I first heard you. It was your cover of Ring of Fire and after that I was hooked. I can't wait for your new album.

Take care and God bless,
Sandman

wow.....sounds like they basically wanted to screw you....way to stick to your guns, knowing that it was ...pardon the pun...A BUNK DEAL.....i bet deep down you are so pissed off....but relieved as well....but since they own the digital recordings, i bet you are worried that if it does come out, it better sound as good as your expectations....or you will fucking freak out.....the red tape is viscious.....i feel for you because the songs are so strong and you and your fans know that there could have been some quality top 100 hits on this recording, and would have catapulted you to the very top where you deserve to be....maybe you should contact J.K. L i v i n ....mathew mc conaghy's new label....i bet he would love your music........just a thought....anyways just jeep livin' and keep your head up, cause you are the best....love ya...eddie
