PROMO Fail?

mario-dna-01Am I the only one that didn’t know about Mario’s Album that dropped on Tuesday? I only found out cuz I saw an AD on Concrete Loop,WOW! He was talking about this album for awhile before all this. Sheeeet no one in TGC even knew his album was out and we’re all fans of his work, WTF?! Bad, bad, bad promo!

I won’t even start to blame the label…fully….Mario is part of the blame. 2009 and YOU yourself ain’t promoing??? C’mon! Saw his Twitter post…not even mentioning the album. WOW! Not saying Twitter is the be all end all but, c’mon! It’s the hottest social networking site of today.

It’s the SAME OL’ sh** people…lol! “Be where people are and run the sh** outta it!” (i.e. Twitter, FB, YouTube, UStream, ur ownblog page etc, etc….Tossing content to CC, Singersroom, YBF etc. I know people don’t “fux wit it” anymore but even MySpace serves a purpose (just in case) with some tunes and links to the other outlets I mentioned). I’ve always felt people don’t watch TV anymore. Sh** we barely watch it either. A few people regarding Mario’s release said the same thing too. Again, you gotta go where heads are at…The ‘NET!……and rinse all it’s outlets. PERIOD!

Jermaine Dupri is a perfect example…if you have some interesting stuff to say, hear etc. the people will come. Perfect example…his YouTube. TONS of humour, great convo/debates, music (music is well… so so, no pun intended…lol!). He has all them followers and throws out a question about Mario’s album and BOOM!…So many replies I can’t read them all! ==> check it here!

Again, same ol’ thing people… “Be where people are and run the sh** outta it!”

Ok, I’m done! Thoughts???
