You might have seen an ad on the internet asking for Hip Hop artists to submit their music for an upcoming compilation album called "Word On The Streets" through Kron Studios.
Before I submitted my music to them I did some research on the internet to see if I could find any info on them. I came across a message board where Ron of Kron Studios was trying to solict business. Majority of the members on the board were questioning the legitimacy of this service and they were asking many questions. Ron replied to them by saying their music sucked and wouldn't be considered for the compilation anyway. He said if anyone was really serious they should e-mail him for details.
So I e-mailed him and directed him to my website where my music was posted. He wrote me back saying that one of my songs would fit in perfectly with the compilation but there was a little matter of $200.00. I wrote him back asking what exactly will I be getting for my $200.00 and also asked if he had any references I could contact.
The response was, quote "after careful consideration they have decided not to accept my submission due to my lack of confidence in their company." They wanted my money up until the point that I asked them what do I get for it. I believe that this company feeds on the hopes and dreams of aspiring hip hop artist and is profiting from this. Now I can't prove this as they would not do business with me, but you can read the facts above and come to your own conclusion.
