你黄的新邮件一则，离开华纳了？[思考]
大家好
我的一点更新，我一个月前离开了我的唱片公司......
我18岁时在诺丁山的一场演出中遇到了来自庇护唱片公司的埃德·霍华德，最后我撞上了他和他现在妻子的家。在那里，我给他播放了一堆音乐，只是聊了聊生活和我想做的事情。老实说，我不知道他在唱片公司工作的时候，我以为他只是一个让我睡在他的沙发上很酷的人。但第二天我发现他是谁，我们开始聊天。他和当时经营庇护所的本·库克一起参加了许多小型演出。所有没有人来参加的小酒吧演出，他们都来了。因此，当5号合作出来时，我得到了一笔交易，我立即签了字。我太爱那些家伙了。
在过去的15年里，我推出了很多音乐，并在那家公司取得了巨大的成功。我们一起建造了一些令人惊奇的事情，并享受着发生在我们身上的这种改变生活的事情。我现在的生活与我十几岁时的生活大不相同，长期以来，我一直直觉地感觉到，我的职业生活中的很多事情都需要改变。在这一切之下，我是一名在酒吧演出的歌手兼词曲作者。我已经变成了这个在体育场演出超过15年的流行歌星，这是一件超级令人惊奇的事情，但也让你大吃一惊。我上个月决定离开Asylum/Warner。我带着如此多的爱和感激离开公司，感谢我们共同取得的一切成就。这不是“不满的艺术家离开唱片公司”的情况。这是一个男孩，他从十几岁开始在公司工作，有着不同的优先事项，到现在存在的2个男人的父亲，他觉得自己需要转变，改变他的职业做事方式。我永远爱Ed Howard，我永远爱Asylum，未来之门永远敞开。感谢华纳全球所有在过去15年里为我的项目工作的人，这是一次令人难以置信的旅程。很高兴看到接下来的15年会把我带到哪里。
爱你们
Hey everyone
A little update from me, I left my record label a month ago…
I met Ed Howard from Asylum records at a show in Notting Hill when I was 18 and I ended up crashing at his and his now wife’s house. Whilst there I played him a bunch of music, and just chatted about life and what I wanted to do. I honestly didn’t know at the time he worked at a record label, I thought he was just someone cool who was letting me crash on his sofa. But the next day I found out who he was, and we started chatting. He came to so many of those small gigs, with Ben Cook who ran Asylum at the time. All the tiny tiny pub gigs no one came to, they came to. So when no.5 collaborations came out, and I was offered a deal, I signed instantly. I love those guys so much.
Over the last 15 years, I’ve put out so much music, and had so much success with that company. We’ve built something amazing together, and enjoyed such life changing stuff happening to us. My life is hugely different now to what it was when I was a teenager, and I’ve been feeling in my gut for a long time that a lot of things in my professional life need to change. I am, underneath it all, a singer songwriter who plays pub gigs. And I’ve sorta morphed into this pop star who plays stadiums over 15 years, it’s a super amazing thing to have happened but also a lot to get your head around. I decided to leave Asylum / Warner last month. I leave the company with SO much love and gratitude for everything we have achieved together. This isn’t a ‘disgruntled artist leaves record label’ type situation. This is a boy who started as a teenager on the company with different priorities, to the father of 2 man who exists now, who feels like he needs a shift and change in the way he does things professionally. I love Ed Howard forever, I love Asylum forever, and the door is always open for the future. Thank you everyone across Warner worldwide who has worked on my projects over the last 15 years, it’s been an incredible journey. Excited to see where the next 15 years takes me.
Loads of love to everyone x
