For the same reason everyone else out here that has REAL talent doesn't make it. The Bay Area doesn't support their artist. I'm talking about Fans/consumers, radio, club owners and the people from the Bay that work inside the industry. The Bay needs to support its own for the shit to grow.

Word!!!! But I love how people blame the consumer, who prolly got no clue she even exists, for not buying albums, which prolly don't exist either....I'm pretty sure if whatever company puts her music out wanted her to be on, it could happen like that!
...anywho, it's true; the majority dont listen to indie music nor care...
They rather care about Hollywood-oriented corporate bullshit like Britney Spears, Fergie, & American Idol... smh...
Neo-Soul artists ( Look at Jill Scout, Angie Stone etc) rarly blow up but she should be more known and famous then she is considering her talent and looks. Sony never really pushed her album or gave her a decent video for her second album.
Zion I -Flow
Team - Sunshine
E-40 - Got it RMX
Herio - Soweto
Sum track wit planet Asia
and theres more but i cant remember them at the momment.
And i hope you actually have brought her shit otherwise you have the answer to you question right there. I got both her albums on cd her and Joy Denalane are my best singers.
