LITHONIA, GA. (Top40 Charts/ Ariel Glover Website)-Atlanta is filled with hip-hop heavyweights, but creative R&B/hip-hop singer Ariel Glover and his brother, the radical rap/hip-hop artist Jonathan " G-Lover" Glover, are standing out from the crowd. The two use the SNOCAP
Digital Registry in conjunction with MySpace.com to sell their music and get closer to their fans.
Both of the Atlanta-based music artists have taken advantage of SNOCAP's online distribution deals with online services and retailers to create virtual MySpace music stores. Current and new fans can now go directly to the brothers' MySpace Web pages to sample and buy music as well as share comments and feedback as MySpace friends.
"With the recent decline in traditional CD sales in record stores and the ever-increasing number of music consumers buying on the Internet, independent artists like us are in a better position to manage our success and get our slice of the big money pie," said Ariel Glover. Glover is a professional singer, songwriter, vocal coach and producer. He specializes in R&B, hip-hop, inspirational and soul, and his singing style is described as a blend of Luther Vandross, Brian McKnight and Donny Hathaway.
G-Lover acquired an early exposure and love for music through church involvement at his childhood home in Memphis, Tenn. At the age of 14, he proclaimed that he would pursue a career as a rapper and now melds his lyrical skills with positive messages of social consciousness. "The freedom to communicate directly with my fan base is a dream come true," G-Lover said. "I want my fans to always feel close to my music. As music artists, we spend countless long and hard hours creating songs for our fans. The comfort of knowing I have an avenue to distribute my music around the world is truly a blessing."
Both Glover and G-Lover believe in connecting beat-oriented modern styles with the old-school melodies of their genres. By cultivating and mastering the new and the old school, they have devised innovative styles through which they aspire to create timeless songs that reach across social, ethnic and geographic boundaries.
The two independent music artists are no strangers to entrepreneurial and musical success. Previously, they collaborated with another singer on a CD, which sold a large number of units in the U.S. and overseas markets through their online marketing efforts. "We're forecasting big things with this new SNOCAP online distribution deal," said Ariel Glover. "We are positioning ourselves for superstardom success in the very near future." The SNOCAP registry and distribution channels are also being used by both major and independent record labels.
The MySpace song tracks can be downloaded for $0.99 each, and purchasers can listen to full-length versions of featured songs or excerpts of any song before buying. To learn more or buy music, visit https://www.myspace.com/arielglover and https://www.myspace.com/atlglover.
