So this “Artist” that follows us sees a post where we’re offer artists the opportunity to get there music promoted during SXSW for $50 and his first comment is “Y’all always asking independent artists for money” - he proceeds to leave several negative comments on posts… questions “whether we really do what we say”… “Who have we made successful”, etc… All questions that would be answered by going to our website, actually browsing though our IG page, etc. This is why artists get scammed. They miss real opportunities and alienate GOOD people with their bad attitudes. Scammers politely put up with Artists being as****es because they know they’re going to get the last laugh anyway (Instant Karma? 🤷🏽‍♂️) and an artist like this is more likely to fall for a scam because they’re quick to open their mouth without researching. A Scammer can tell them ANYTHING because they’ve already demonstrated they’re not going to do the research to verify it. This is why artists get scammed. Don’t be like this artist!

The fact that we’ve been in business for 18 years with the same name says more than enough about the quality of what we do.
