Clay Aiken has reportedly been dumped by recording company RCA Records, which becomes the home for "American Idol" stars, including Kelly Clarkson, Chris Daughtry and David Cook. The rumor starts swirling in the media after Aiken's name, message board and press materials are no longer found on the label's official website.
Clay Aiken has also been suspiciously absent from the opening of the "American Idol" Experience at Disney World on February 14, only to add more fuel to the rumor of his removal from RCA. An official announcement has not arrived, but is expected to come out sometime soon.
Clay Aiken has released five studio albums post leaving "American Idol" in 2002. As for his latest work, he dropped a record called "On My Way Here" in U.S. on May 6, 2008. In one of the songs featured in the album, he worked with OneRepublic's vocalist Ryan Tedder.

GROSS CLAY AIKEN SUCKS AND HE IS VERY UGLY!! IM GLAD HE WAS FIRED..HIS FANS ARE ANNOYING
Back in the 1950s - early 1970s There was something called "All Request Radio", It was GREAT !!! This was the reason why acts like The Beatles and The Monkees could chart all the songs on their albums as well as their singles. I miss those days. Now DJs and Program Directors Dictate what will be played period. So blaming a record label will not help. This a sad fact for many a great musical talent. There are tons of singers with great voices that just don't get any airplay and that is all there is to it, sorry to say. Peace.
Clay is a huge talent, the likes of which come by very rarely, It is time for good promotion, (he has had none) I would like to know how well anyone would do without that? Considering the lack of positive promotion, he has done amazingly well. His fans will support him forever. He has been appallingly treated by the media, he deserves much credit.
Was Ruben at Disney..he was dumped by RCA. How do you know that Clay's obligation to RCA was done and decided to not continue with RCA.
If this were my blog, I would quickly do some editing. NO, Clay was not "fired". Clay dumped RCA!!! And, if you are going to write on a topic it is good to do some research. Clay was recovering from surgery and missed the Disney-AI party. You really should know this or not post about. Clay's many fans are all celebrating. Go to any of his boards and join in the fun. Congrats to Clay. It's just the beginning of a wonderful new start!!!
RCA didn't fire Clay, Clay fired them. Way to go!! Clay fans are CELEBRATING his freedom from RCA all over the Internet.
First...Clay was not at the AI Experience in Florida, because he just had surgery/procedure for TMJ. (yeah..go check it out) Billboard has reported that Clay and RCA have parted ways...NOT dumped..but that would not get the attention as much.... As far as Claymates being upset.....That is the farthest from the truth..we are totally glad they have parted...RCA has done nothing to support Clay. I am thrilled he is free from them, we are all happy for him.
My thoughts exactly !!
