Greyson Chance Performs Empire State of Mind on Billboard’s Mashup Mondays

Greyson Chance kicked off the 2011 season of Billboard.com’s Mashup Mondays. 

Last year Billboard had fun with the likes of Sara Bareiles taking on Beyonce and Matisyahu beat boxing Kings of Leon so they knew they had to do it big to start of 2011.  Who better to pick then Greyson Chance?

Greyson Chance chose to perform one of his favorite covers of all time, Alicia Keys and Jay Z’s “Empire State of Mind”.

“I picked ‘Empire State of Mind’ because its obviously out of my element” said Greyson.

This is absolutely (in our opinion) the best cover of Empire State of Mind we’ve ever seen.  We were in awe after watching it.  The sound quality is out of this world!

Troy Carter Talks about Greyson Chance with Billboard

Greyson Chance was a topic of discussion in a recent Billboard interview when his manager, Troy Carter sat down with Bill Werde during the 7th annual Touring Conference and Awards.  Thanks goes out to community member Garret for sending us a link to the video!

Troy Carter became widely known managing pop-star Lady Gaga but he’s beginning to show his talents in his work with Greyson Chance as well who is is also now managing.

Between Lady Gaga and Greyson, Troy tells us that he stays “very busy!”.

The interview starts off with Troy talking about the comparisons that have been made between Justin Bieber and Greyson Chance.  Troy acknowledges that molding Greyson into what Justin has become would be the easy route, but he’s thinking long-term with the thirteen year old singer.   “His musical instincts are way out whack {for someone his age}” Troy commented.

It was very reassuring when Troy said that his goal with Greyson is to make sure he has a career that will last beyond his childhood.  Troy hopes that the longevity of Greyson’s music career matches that of singers like Stevie Wonder who walked into Motown at seven-years-old.

Managing Lady Gaga and Greyson at the same time is of course challenging but Troy says that the team standing behind both artists (which consists of in-house marketing personnel, a touring department and a digital marketing department) all come together to make things happen.  While Troy acknowledges that Lady Gaga does require much more personnel to manage her than Greyson does, Mr. Carter believes Greyson will one day require the same.

For the remainder of the interview Troy and Bill discuss Lady Gaga, her unique style, how things got started with her and offer some insight into the workings of things behind the scene in the music business.  This interview was one of the best that we’ve seen with anyone in the music indusutry and it gave us some awesome insight into the mindset of the man responsible for Greyson’s music career.

Below is a video of the complete interview.

Greyson Chance Trends YouTube

Greyson Chance landed a spot at #4 on Billboard’s “Web Trends” list yesterday.  Greyson captured his spot for the most viewed video on YouTube in the last 24 hours.

Monday we covered a new video posted to Greyson’s official YouTube account (Greyson97), a clip which gave us a behind the scenes look inside the studio with the thirteen-year-old singer.

Since Monday about 110,000 people have tuned in to checkout the video and this was enough to land Greyson the #4 spot on the web trends list.  In that 24 hours period Greyson even beat out a super popular Justin Bieber “U Smile” video.

Greyson is no stranger to topping out on YouTube though.  His “Paparazzi” performance video which landed him a trip to The Ellen Show and eventually a record deal many months ago has close to 32 million view now!  WOW!

Congratulations to Greyson for this awesome accomplishment; the Greyson Nation filled with Enchancers and Greysonaholics is strong and growing!  Greyson is taking over and Greyson’s #1 Fansite has been there for it all and will continue to be with him for it all!
