Any musical artist or avid fan knows just how difficult it has become to make a sustainable living off performing, recording or representing music, and that's not right. Those who excel at medecine can heal, those who excel at law can govern; why can't an artist create? Well, at TK421 Music we believe they can.
We provide an innovative Music Publishing service for artists on a promissary basis; geared towards Artist Development and Sync Licensing. Each deal caters directly to the artists' needs, as every artist can benefit from Music Publishing regardless of how well their music is known. I guess what we're saying is that we cracked open the flood gates, and that we're damn proud we did so...and we've been given the opportunity to take our services to the next level.
We've got a few ideas to improve our services; our artists & clients deserve it. On the top of our list is to become the Publishing Arm for different music entities and individual artists. In essence, becoming an outsourced Music Publisher for those who need it. But we can't do that without a complete redesign of our website or our "virtual office" which is where we need your help.
Contributing to our campaign will ensure that Music Publishing will finally be accesible, you'll not only be helping us better our company you'll be helping music grow into the modern era.
We also plan to take down the Empire...but thats another story all together.
-RocketHub is not an investment or charity. It is an exchange: funds from fans for rewards from me.
- It's an All & More funding mechanism: if I don't reach my financial goal I get to keep what I raise. But if I do reach my goal, I get access to exciting opportunities."
