KC QUICK NEWS: TABLE DANCER #2 ON USEN WESTERN & KC HOLDS JAPAN DANCE AUDITIONS

Good Morning #KCRyders! We've got a new post just for you as we sit idoly by in waiting for something to happen in KC-Ville. In all honesty I really wish that this was explained by Keshia's label instead of us having to dig for it, or it just being announced so Keshia's fans would know what's going on. But you already know that in the near three years of our existence that won't happen from our girl. So... yeah. Moving on to the good news.... - C


KESHIA'S TABLE DANCER RANKS AT #2 ON USEN WESTERN GENERAL CHART WEEK

We're not Japanese so this makes not a bit of sense to us. All we know is that our girl KC is ranking at #2 on the General Chart Week for USEN Western Hits Top 30 Chart. Successfully beating out the likes of other artists like Taylor Swift, Ne-yo and  Carly Ray Jepsen. How notable (relevant) this music chart is in Japan, we're not sure. It makes one wonder though if it's up there along the lines of a Japan Billboard and SoundScan... Anyways, we took a few shots of the website, and you can see for yourself. Check out USEN's official website by clicking here.

DANCE AUDITIONS FOR KC BEING HELD AT NEXT MOVEMENT IN JAPAN 10/26!

And also, Keshia's holding dance auditions  Well, [Next Movement] in Japan is anyway. They're scheduled to take place on 10/26 in Japan, supposedly at the studio. [Hey, give us a break we tried translating, this is all we could come up with. lol] Included below is a flyer from the NextMovement website along with the link.

KC QUICK NEWS #8: BIG ANNOUNCEMENT

Big Announcement coming soon, curious as to what it is? Well, we can't tell you we can't even drop a hint, because we don't even know. KC says, this week maybe today or tomorrow, and she's pretty good about keeping her word close to dates, so we shall see.

Hopefully, it has something to do with the US & International markets and securing a US/International Label, that'd be the best announcement ever to come from her, and would ultimately shift to the top of being one of this years highlights before the year's end. New music and or a mixtape is also a possibility as well, because she did say last year that she & her manger Jen were working on something of that affect and she was recording material for her fourth album starting in January.

 Or, it could even be that she's filming a movie... (and that can be left open to interpretation) 

It could be any of those things, but nothing would excite me more than her album being in stores in the US and her having a label her. 

What do you think the announcement is #KCRyders? Sound off on our twitter @luvkcfansite or hit us on on facebook.com/LuvKC and tell us!
