⚑ Needs Attention This Week

AT→ Dept Status → Status = Blocked  |  Update Log → flag as Needs Attention

AUDIO · Emma Anderson

Demo has a louder hook than the final mix. Fans are building hype around it. Needs ears + decision before 3/14.

MGMT · Haley

Blocking direct access across multiple workstreams. Wednesday dinner is the touchpoint. If it moves, escalate.

MGMT · Red Clay Strays

Saying no to nearly everything on press. CRS in two weeks, 85 programmers confirmed. Need engagement now.

PLATFORM · Girl Sweet Voice

2nd viral TikTok removed without explanation. No copyright signal. Need TikTok answer ASAP.
