Complaint Review: Gaetano Lattanzi- Caelum Entertainment - Forest Hills New York

Hi everyone, I would like to clarify the false statements that are being made by Jon Boling AKA Skatch MC on this site about me and my company stated above.  

While we strongly believe in the power of the web and sites like Ripoffreport.com to help people better understand who they are dealing with, they can also be misused for those that wish to unfairly besmirch and damage the reputations of those that have done nothing wrong. 

I can assure all who read his rant, that we are most certainly not in the business of scamming or ripping people off. In fact, we enjoy an unblemished record of helping forge careers for many artists and as a result enjoy a stellar reputation. This is simply because we love music and thus take great pride in every single creative venture we put our hearts into.  We have worked with hundreds of clients and companies, many of which have been so pleased with the results that we enjoy large amounts of repeat business.  This creative connection is so strong, that I have made many great friends with our clients as a result.    

Unfortunately that is not the case with Mr. Boling (Skatch MC) as his erratic behavior and unscrupulous manner has created a situation that is untenable. In all of my years in business, this is the first time I have ever dealt with someone such as this. It quickly became clear to me once I began working with Mr. Boling, that what I had originally attributed to creative passion was actually, poor impulse control, anger issues and what can only be explained as extreme paranoia.  As mentioned, I originally gave him the benefit of the doubt, because he would literally be incredibly ecstatic one moment but then suddenly and without provocation the next day, turn around and attempt to accuse me of things that were completely fabricated in his mind. It soon became frightening to me. Mr. Boling would at once express how thankful and happy he was with the creative direction of the project and then call me back and begin to tell me that something was happening and that there were those that wish to stifle his genius. As a result of these imaginary threats, he would explain that he needed to lay low.  Honestly, I had no idea what to think as I am a musician not a psychotherapist so I kept my opinions to myself and honored my commitments  and against my better judgment continued to work with him because of his determination and potential.   

As the situation got worse, he began to expand his wild and false allegations to include a computer virus that he claimed that I created, to people on the web commenting on his material negatively as if I put them up to this (why would I sabotage my own projects?). His behavior and accusations became increasingly bizarre as he began to provide me with his interpretations of philosophical quotes I would post on my Facebook page as if it were being directed to him. Instead of taking any responsibility for his own successes and/or failures, in his troubled mind it was far easier to find someone to blame and thus he began to tell himself that it must be me sabotaging his career.  It got to the point where he became so fixated, that he even began to blame me for mundane, everyday things like finding weird stuff on his iPod/iPhone.   

Look, as mentioned, the web is a powerful way to communicate how people handle themselves so that others can be praised or admonished for the choices, I am grateful for the opportunity to tell my side of the story.  I love what I do as this is my lifelong passion and dream.   I literally give all that I have to each and every talent that we work with. That is why I tried to overlook his idiosyncrasies until I could no longer work with him due to his behavioral issues. Never did I expect anyone to falsely accuse me of such things or impugn my professionalism or integrity in such a mean-spirited manner. Though this is absolutely ridiculous and incredibly confusing, I wish Mr. Broling the best and hope that he can work through the issues that vex him.
