PRODUCT OVERVIEW
WHERE ARE WE NOW? Market climate, history, heritage, significant trends influencing this release; We are a new company called OCK Records that are finding unsigned artists with star potential through youtube, myspace, etc. and trying to fit them into the latest music charts, e.g. Hit 40 UK. We have recently signed a few artists of which include ‘AJ’ and ‘Shani’ who both record their songs in a home studio. Both artists write their own music and also do cover songs. Our aim is to have them well known by the public in the download charts by summer 2011. |
THE ALBUM CONCEPT What is it? Shani is a brand new reggae/RnB artist with currently only one CD featuring 10 songs, some her own, some cover versions, and two bonus tracks. She has already collaborated with the likes of Gyptian, Drake, Sean Kingston and Rhianna. As she becomes bigger, we hope that she will collaborate with more top of the charts artist and become herself part of the ‘A list’. Why are we doing it? At OCK Records, we believe it is important for artists with talent and star potential to be noticed in the album, single and download charts and make it in the musical industry.
