Irvin Whitlow Email & Phone Number

My Main goal is changing the music industry hopefully this poem summarizes it all..To all major record labels and "Hip-Hop"As you see now or have heard album sales has fallen 30-33% some say itsdue to the music but in all reality its due to illegal downloadingand digital sales. I mean look around Ringtones are selling more thanfull songs,Icons like Jay-z are selling less than what they've soldbefore. I have came up with an idea to maybe help sales go up and toput a smile in our communities. My idea is called "one-on-one",one-on-one is where artist actually interact more with fans make fansfeel more close for example, Have artist go to local schools and take10-30 students who are making the honor roll take them to dinner speakto them about anything who cares as long as they students know they areon the right path and you care. Also look at Myspace, it is biggestnetworking site out how about 2 weeks before the artists album comes outthey have video on their page where they play snippets of the songs andexplain to the "fans" how this song came about and what it means tothem. As a fan myself I know this would help me buy the album because Ifeel there is a personal connection with me and the "artist. The truth of the matter is this… HIP HOP is now, as it always has been, a misunderstood & misinterpretedform of music… No matter how mainstream it has become… They do not seek to understand it, & therefore never will… When you silence the voice of truth… That’s when you deceive yourself most… But if you can manipulate the essence of the voice… If you can make the truth into foolishness… If you can strip the truth of it’s power… Then you can crush the listeners… You can control those attempting to learn & or forms theiridentities…Specialties: Contract Negotiation,Managing Contracts,How to set hotel and travel arrangementsCommunication skills,WEB Microsoft words excel power points HTML,Knowledge of music and entertainment,Negotiation skills,Knowledge of the equipment/stages/musical instruments, ticket operations,event management skills, trade show and concessions food and beverage
