What a great start of the year this 2019 Young Jerry. After a while, off released, rapper and front artist of Electree City Music Group, ECMG has finally cut off from utilizing platforms like Itunes and other networking websites for the publishing, hosting and selling his songs digitally, online. He now has a prime secured website, with his imprint as the domain name, Youngjerry.com. After a series of interviews with the rapper, he actually explains the initial idea of why he decided to have a website. On the 21st February 2019, the website will be officially launched for public access will follow by a new single titled ”BRAND”to accompany the website launching.
@Drarreysblog – you are now amongst top African Artists that have a website with their imprint names as the website domain name. Why Do You Decide To Have A Website On Your Own and not ECMG.com or so?
Reply-YOUNG JERRY: I wanted a platform where I can share and sell creations ( Music, Instrumentals, Designs, Arts tips, Presets, Video Efx, Lifestyle tips, Clothing, etc) in one place. I wanted to get direct access to my supporters through the website. On my website, i can regulate my prices, sell mesh products at discounted rates, get those who follow me to know about my updates, new songs releases and I can sell at a much cheaper rate, waving off the commissions these platforms deduct at the end of the day. About ECMG, ECMG doesn’t exist as other record labels do, this company was created from an idea to solve the plights of artists from Labels. am sorry this idea is still Vulnerable and i can’t say much about the values, views, and mission of ECMG yet, hence the website too can’t be made public too.
@Drarreysblog – What Advice Can You Give Others Especially Fellow Upcoming Artist Who Does Not Have This Type Of Platform?
Reply-YOUNG JERRY: Well, It depends on their values and what they want to get off their music. If you are an unsigned upcoming artist, I urge to give a thought of creating your own website, information and masterpieces dispersed on networking platforms like Facebook, Instagram, youtube, Bandcamp etc made be easily accessible to your fans on your website.
@Drarreysblog-Whats Really Special About This Song ”BRAND”?
Reply-YOUNG JERRY: The song brand states about so many things, though in a coded way, Followers and lovers of my music know that I always try to predict what I’m hoping to achieve in the near future and how I wish it to happen through my music. So in “brand”, I Wish listeners could begin to love themselves as if they are a brand in limited edition.
After reading this hope you finally clear your doubts about the idea of a brand.
thanks for reading through this write up. we hope to do better next time.
