From a hip-hop forum I sometimes post at, somebody asked about good free ways to promote your music and got this brilliant suggestion:
"Have a couple of people you know talk about wild gun play and then throw hands and have your music playing in the background and send it to worldstar."
Ha, genius!

It's funny because you know this could actually work.

Unless you do that, no one is going to know who the band is or what song is playing, and without that, its not really promotion, just putting a song out the for others to listen to.

I think 'll pitch this to the guys tonight. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
