**MISS KRYStAL PHONE KALL**

These are the emails I exchanged with Vteens rep, Melissa.

* * *

This is the inital email I sent to enter the kontest

Date: May 17, 2002

This was really tough for me to pick...

I downloaded all the songs and burned them onto CD (mainly so I could listen to them over and over again wherever I went so I could pick one...I am still going to buy my 2 kopies of the new album!)

I chose "Please B-Real" for the simple reason that it has been stuck in my head almost constantly since I downloanded it!

But as I said, it was really tough to decide...I really liked "Cry Never" because it fits well into a story I'm writing and is unlike any other song on the radio (concept wise)...I loved the cover of "Real Love" even though everyone I've been talking to can't seem to remember the original! Miss KRYStAL really stays true to original! "I Oh I" is another one of those that I COULD've picked because I'm really into making sure she has a wide audience and "I Oh I" would be most likely to be played on the AC stations..."Sing to Me" is nice and different compared to other songs out there..."Rhymin'" is another one of those songs that just occassionally get's stuck in my head "U Told Me" was also one that could be played on AC radio stations, so that was a possibility...

So as you can see, I really had a difficult time choosing, but finly chose "Please B-Real" because, well, it takes me back to when I was young and I listened to Hip Hop/R&B and there was nothing offensive about it and I could dance to the song. Frankly, I've already got a video concept idea running through my head for this song...but I'll just keep my mouth shut, like always! I would REALLY like to hear this song played on a station in my town...

Frankly I think the direction that Miss KRYStAL has gone with these songs is EXACTLY where the public is right now...I mean, look at Alicia Keyes, Nelly Furtado and the rest of the bunch...it seems that R&B is winning out again!

So that is why I chose "Please B-Real"

Hey Becca!

This is Melissa from Vteens(as if you couldn't gather that from the e-mail address, haha). Today, I come bearing good news!

YOU WON THE MISS KRYSTAL PHONE CALL, GIRL!!

But before we can work out a time and date for Miss Krystal to call you, I need you to do me a very small favor. I need you to go to Vteens.org and fill in all the fields you missed at registration, so we can verify who you are and where you are coming from. Also, you'll need to e-mail your phone number and the time of day that's best to call you, so we can pass along this info to Miss Krystal.

Congratulations and thanks for participating, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to e-mail me!

Melissa

Woman, I cannot even tell you how sorry I am about this! I was informed by Mook that she had called you---no worries, he'll be hearing from me this afternoon. I'll let you know how it goes, and trust me, this will be fixed!
