Chesney’s Camp Denies He Wants A New Label

Kenny Chesney doesn’t want to be a pop star. The New York Post quoted an unidentified source as saying Kenny wants a new record label deal – and that he wants to be more “mainstream.” “He’s very displeased with how Sony has handled him,” the source said. The Post claimed Kenny is looking for a $30 million, five-album deal. But Kenny’s manager tells the newspaper, “This is very inaccurate. We have no plans to be anything but a country-music artist. ... Also, we have enjoyed a long-term, successful relationship with Sony.”
