The soap opera between Morrissey and his record label continues to press. Last weekend, Capitol-Harvest Records denied having broken its relationship with the British singer, as he himself assured the media days ago. The reason for the rugged mess began a few weeks ago when Morrissey himself criticized the executive director of his label, Steve Barnett, for not wanting to invest in video clips to promote the singles of his new album: 'World Peace Is None Of Your Business'.
Following the denial of the record company, the website True to you (Internet medium that the singer uses to communicate with his fans) published an official statement this week in which he assures that Morrissey has been effectively fired by his label: “Both Morrissey and his attorney are in possession of the email sent by Steve Barnett, as well as Steve Barnett's personal assistant, both confirming that Capitol-Harvest has terminated their relationship with Morrissey. Morrissey has never signed a recording agreement with Capitol-Harvest and Morrissey retains full ownership of 'World Peace is None Of Your Business' ".
The statement goes on to detail: "Contrary to what is stated in the information of 'Billboard', in Capitol-Harvest They have made it very clear that they had no interest in releasing a second Morrissey album. Russells (London), who represents Morrissey, is currently ending Morrissey's relationship with Harvest Records. Once again Morrissey is looking for a new label. ". Despite the ups and downs that the singer's relationship with his latest label brings, Morrissey's tour to present World Peace is None of your Business will begin on October 6 in the city of Lisbon.
