I can just see the 50-something white men sitting around the table trying to tap into a niche market and realizing that creating a "gay-focused" label could be the ticket to an end of the year bonus. And then naming it Music with a Twist -- likely named because the music bigwigs thought "Huh, huh... they're not STRAIGHT! We're SO CLEVER!" -- is totally LAME!
Although, I'm ALL for signing the Gossip -- they are everything Karen O and the YYY aim to be and deserve to be adored the world over for being genuine and wicked smart with the hooks. But, c'mon. MUSIC WITH A TWIST? Couldn't have been named something much cooler -- like Pussy Galore? That'd be tasty.
