Has RCA Dropped Clay Aiken?

A day late and a dollar short. That is the situation with all the gossip bloggers today. I think it is pretty hilarious that they are only now picking up on information that the fans have been discussing for weeks! And their spin on it all is entirely predictable. 

Fact is that we don't really know yet the exact circumstances for Clay and RCA parting ways. But the fans are not surprised. It has been obvious for a long time that RCA has not been fully supporting Clay as an artist and it is puzzling that they have hung on to him for this long. Given that it has been six years and that Clay has produced five albums, it is more likely that he has fulfilled his contract with RCA and they have both decided not to renew. Clay needs a label that believes in him as an artist and who will do their job in promoting and supporting his work. Frankly, the vast majority of fans are relieved that it appears that Clay is leaving RCA and they eagerly wait to see what steps he takes next in his career. Clay has already said that he is not quitting and that he has plans for the new year. I can't wait to see what he does next!
