Blow up, start appearing all over TRL, and you won't have to do anything to get your record played.

pay them which is what a lot of them do nowadays anyway, or land a deal with one of the biggest labels and convince them you're worth being paid for

pay them = not gonna work since...you're nobody. You won't even get close to the person you need to.

nag them = not gonna work since...you're nobody. And one of a million nobodies that call daily.

I know the answer lol...but I'm not gonna tell ya since you're a cock sucker and an ingrate.

But here's a hint: it takes more than one person. A lot more. And the program director is NOT the person you need to talk to.[/good-deed-for-an-asshole for this week]

Apexx, tell that second point to the thousands of emerging writers a year...it's a matter of talent and a good deal of luck, is it not? Just like submitting to an agent or a publisher, you need to have a good presentable resume/query letter, short and sweet, to tell shit like prior performances if you have any, what type of people would like your music, and an example or two of your songs...that is, if you're e-mailing them. You can do the same thing on the phone, telling them why they should promote a nobody.

Sadly my friend, to a radio station, your stats your pictures, what ever projects and preformances you have out etc are all but irrelevant. the only thing a station is interested in is listens or "ratings". There is a high strategy that goes into making it on the radio, as well as into a label hands, or to any other point in the music industry. truth be told there really isn't much "luck" involved. The "luck" is in getting someone that's important to your cause to make the time to listen to your music. If you got selected....it's not because of luck.

believe me.

if you don't, it doesn't mean you don't have skills. The person listening could love your music and just can't do anything with it. You're just not what they're looking for. And this applies to any mainstream music outlet, be it a label, a station, a venue, anything.
