James Blunt’s music used to suck even worse

WTF is wrong with this guy?
A producer who has worked with stars such as Dido and Samantha Mumbo claims that he helped Blunt create his signature simplistic music, and that Blunt screwed him once he got a music contract. What’s more, Blunt’s music was even worse before this guy reworked it for him:

[The Producer, Burton] says Blunt’s music used to be “crude, occasionally laughably direct, and betrayed his relative lack of musicianship or discernible influence.” Burton says he saw potential, however, and started working with him.

Burton… wrote on a website: “A couple of people told me I shouldn’t be working with him without a contract in place.

“But to be honest the love couldn’t have been thicker in the air – lots of talk about how great the record was going to be and how cool the whole situation was.”

The UK Performing Rights Society thinks the claims are legitimate enough to be considered, and has stopped royalty payments on 6 songs from Blunt’s album “Back to Bedlam” until the case is resolved.

Also, Blunt’s girlfriend, who is supposed to be the inspiration for that terrible song “You’re Beautiful,” wants to dump his ass. Supposedly he’s not spending enough time with her, but we think she just came to her senses.
