IP: 001E 66D2

I believe honestly myspace is best way of promoting music.. even better than SC... why?? well cuz.. umm wait let me think.. .oh yea okay ther eu go i remmeber now sorta of wut i was gonna say.. wait uhh wut was i gonna say? oh yea okay here u go.. umm.. yea myspace is the best way to promote music is cuz basiclly everyone know's wut myspace is, and millions of ppl have it.. n if they like ur music they will add the song to their page n have other ppl listen, n if they like it, they will add the song to their page n so on n so on.. also.. cuz u can go to other ppl's myspace easilly n leave a comment asking em to check out ur song etc.. i remember months ago i use to get 200-300 plays a day cuz of promoting for days.. but after 6 months of not writting.. i still get bout 30-40 plays a day.. not bad for a flip huh? haha.. but yea.. wut u think i sbest way of promoting ur music?

Interacting with people face-to-face. By talking to you, people will get a good understanding of what you're about, in a way that can't be expressed through typing in your "About Me" section. Also, you don't have to be worried about someone completely ruining a conversation by asking "Hey, do you interact with people face-to-face?" because people don't ask that.

And it also saves you from all the homoeroticism that is Myspace.

wow...you don't say...Gee, and here I was thinking the i-net was a figment of my imagination

Cuz, when someone likes your music on the i-net, that's less "real" than if they burn it on a CD and listen to it in a car?


pssf

Y'all fuggin baffle me.

the best way of promoting your music depends on who your target audience is. If your target audience is underground heads or b-boys and so on, MTV wouldn't be the best idea. Know what I mean? You gotta go where they're at.

Once you know whoyour audience is, you already know the best way.

Word, I prefer to know who my fans are. Actually talking to them lets me also know what they like, so if I want to make any music for the fans I'd know what to base it off of.

yea my audience was big on myspace.. i had fam, n friends help me promote my music, but the fans slowly faded away wen i stopped writting songs for a while.. .. but got major hook ups now.. met couple artist.. getting over 1000 plays a day that i'll be collabing with.. n so along with up coming artist that i know got the talent to make it but too many things stopping em from doing it..
