hmmm, wonder why she's doing these tours...thx op

[Jena]

Deep in my heart, I am believing she will be debuting some new music. My heart is probably wrong though.

[hi74]

the name of the tour may be due to this piece of Bob Marley" Small Axe"
...Maybe a new song with her guitar i hop

It seems that Lauryn can’t do anything these days without including Bob Marley. This small axe some say originated from Lee Perry other Bob Marley. . However, the bigger picture is that the industry is moving toward infusion, hip-hop, reggae, r&b on a level that will dilute the power of the artist in America. They will no longer have bargaining power to demand big contracts when you have artists from these 3rd world countries dying for an opportunity to achieve fame and at any cost. This eventually will phase out artist who for the most part have indoctrinated a generation with damnable heresies through mind control playing upon the pain and insecurities of the masses. Most of these songs play upon pain, anger, battered women, sexual exploitation and the likes. It is design to control their mind or their way of thinking keeping them in an eternal state of hopelessness. In other words it becomes accepted behavior or norm. Now abuse, low self- esteem is tolerated and become the new “Norm.” The people crying for more like a drug feign that need a fix.

It's called conditioning, repetition,works like this with commercial, radio, hype period.

However, I think meet and greet is good PR and gives the artist a chance to show some reciprocity to their fans for being loyal and supportive of their work and products. Some of these tickets are high enough and to add additional fees to meet and greet, which is a cameo experience at best, is a bit much. Is it worth it to say I met and they were so nice? All products are packaged for our consumption. But humans need more than sensory perceptions.
