Hey!
Rayn, Female Producer here. I want to first say I respect what you’re doin’
in this music business. Keep doin’ your thing! However with that said, you
are using a trademarked name owned by me. I wanted to drop a message to
ask you to refrain from using the name “Rayn”. I know it can be a touchy
subject when you’ve become attached to a name but I’m contacting everyone
who is using my name before sending legal cease and desist orders. Feel
free to contact me through email at LetItRayn@gmail.com or here. Thanks
Rayn

Hi, Latoya. Rayn Kleipe, here. Sorry for the delay! It’s been a busy week.
I’ll start by thanking you for your respect. I will definitely keep doin’ my
thing – though music isn’t business for me: it’s personal! With that said, I
will not be able to comply with your request that I refrain from using my
birth name. Simply put, I have owned it for 31 years – long before you
registered it as a trademark – and, I have no intention of stopping now. I
truly hope you can appreciate my position, and drop this non-issue. Good
day.

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my poem, “The Slave-State of Corporate Capitalism“…
(continuation of a first discussion, which took place here)
Rayn: I’ve witnessed the underclass and understood its necessary permanence in a capitalistic world where commercialism and technology are the new imperialisms, and the race to manufacture and sell has caused America to declare a war on poverty and ignorance, and punish those assumed guilty with life-sentences of servitude to dead-end jobs that trickle down minimum wages and allow the rich to get richer, while the rest get deceived into thinking that they, too, can one day become the next John D. Rockefeller, yet, never do, because the fruits of labor have been replaced with high-tech paper, suitable to be used for the purchase of the same illusions of necessity and convenience that they’ve spent their work day creating…
Keith M.: Thank you!
Rayn: You’re most welcome!
Thomas Pr.: There is this guy James at work. He graduated Duke on Scholarship. He works for me. I tell him how it is with the back of my hand upside his head.
AtLas’: Truth… Love it
