| IDK what to take from this either. Is it because it may seemed implied here that Matt is still waiting on a deal from 19? That's what I took from this at first. But I don't really know for sure. It's very little to go on... ETA: But it's still a good thing, right, that Matt was even mentioned when they were talking about the ever glorious top 4? I guess this means that Matt's as hot right now as any of the 4 (even without a deal)! So that's great news | |

| IMO, the word "shopping" implies that there are offers he's looking into. Otherwise I would think they would have said "waiting" or "hoping" for a deal. | |

That's what I found interesting but then again I realized that it was a Detroit article so maybe not so interesting after all. Dang! Well, I honestly believe that Matt has had offers from 19, but I really think he turned them down b/c he knows what they'll try to do to him (ie: Danny-Gokey him...country??...Really Danny??) I honestly believe that Matt's the only TRUE artist from this season. This shows w/ the fact that he hasn't signed a contract yet. I don't think anyone is gonna convince him to sacrifice his craft, no matter how good the offer might be. This is probably the reason why Matt's deal is taking so long. He's not willing to compromise his 1st LOVE: HIS MUSIC. I know that it's very important to him. He should be taking his time doing this type of "shopping around" & not just take the first offer that's laid out in front of him. I think Matt's doing exactly what he should be doing. | |
