Santa, put the info where ever you want bro. You are the reason I came here in the first place. I am glad I can give a music industry specific outlook on the company. I think its also very important to understand the psychology of what is driving the executive team over there at rmdg. If anyone has a music industry question feel free to post it. I will get back at you. By the way, saw a couple of posts back someone was talking about a reversal. I have Giorgio's assurance this is no where in the cards now. Look for one down the road when RMDG has a nice stack in the bank and they go to bulletin board, well into 2007. No worries now. If he were thinking reversal he would have already done so.
Long and strong! Knowledge is power.
GFK,
that info is on the front page of the RMDG website www.rmd-entertainment.com. Was definately a question I had for Giorgio as well and he told me yes, Roc and Kuntree did receive shares in the company but it was restricted paper.
GFK, different strokes for different folks. I disagree with your review of Roc's cd. There has not been a new face in the game that had that much skill on the microphone in a while. The key to this project is also the originality in production. Hip hop is bogged down by the dirty south syndrome where everyone sounds the same and every beat is alike. Roc's versatility is very evident from track to track. One last thing, Im not going to be too tough on you because you made some nice points on your post and appear to be a supporter but let's let common sense prevail my friend. You said that you listened to roc's album and it was not that impressive right? But didnt you also post that it was sold out in most stores now and on back order? Time for a quick Dunkin Donuts coffee my friend. (good natured ribbing, thanks for your post);)
Common sense makes dollars and cents-knowledge is power-Long and strong baby!
Hello Everyone. Spoke to Giorgio over at RMDG today and got confirmation that all retail outlets are in reorder status now with shipments going out this week. He sees Rocs major sales numbers coming after the video is in rotation. Also, Roc Monee tour dates starting to take shape quite nicely. Dates already confirmed with Lloyd Banks (3) and Jim Jones (2). If you are not a hip hop head then just Google both names so you can see that they are in deed high profile performers. Giorgio and Atton Muhammed of RHN are negotiating with the managers of each artist for the film rights of each show. The plan here is to use some footage for Roc's special, some for a promotional piece they are doing, sell it on I tunes, and air almost all of it on RHN and Google video. We are going to be implimenting similiar revenue streams going into jan here at my company. RMDG will be administering it for us. On the trading side- The stock seems to be behaving quite nicely here today. The low volume and action can probably be attributed to the holiday today. Volume is down everywhere. At my urging, Giorgio did read this board and made the comment that there "was finally some intelligent talk going on there" and he also thanked everyone for their support of the company. He stressed to me that each piece of the company's strategic plan was goin well and stressed that rome was not built in a day and shareholders should understand this is not a stock that is a one week hold with alot of "manufactured hype". He feels it "is a company with an endless abundance of opportunity and promise." Those were his words. My opinion on this....The show and prove for RMDG is going quite well. The relationships with the retail outlets will continue to grow as they order more product from them and RMDG puts out more product. My postion has been increased substancially because of this and the opportunity we just had to buy at lower levels. This one looks like it could be a substancial homerun for those that are long. Long and Strong baby!
I am sure they will have it available shortly. Retailors will typically put 1 to 3 copies of a new artist in each store location as openers. I know in Philly they sold our rather quickly. re-orders should take care of this issue. Its all part of the process my friend.
Long and Strong baby!
Bashers beware. Knowledge is Power.
"Use your mind so you don't lose your money"
i am in with you Santa.
Hey guys. Just checking in. Like what I am seeing on posts. Now we are making sense. A few updates I have..1. Roc Monee will be doing three tour dates with G Unit star Lloyd banks in October in NJ including one in Atalantic City at Club True. 2. Giorgio said he was very pleased with how Rocs album is shaking out so far. Here is some insight -Universal will only ship xxx ammount of units for a new artist. Two reasons for this are that they take the risk on manufacturing dollars and they would also want RMDG or any other company to be in the "positive" as we say. Not owing them money for pressing to the point where they receive nothing in their statement period. This is no problem for RMDG however. Uni typically turns out a full pressing order in 48 hours and can get it shipped out within the next 24 if needed. I saw some of you looking at Rocs stats on Amazon. Although this is not the best retailer to benchmark his numbers with, expect those stats to grow temporarily and then slightly decline. Amazon is an online only point of sales untit. As Rocs album grows in profile and popularity more of the traditional stores like Target and wallmart may pick up the title and the stores that have it now will increase stock by adding more units each time they order. What I am trying to say is as they penetrate the market it will be easier and easier to go to any music retailor and cop the album. Also! Look out for major news on RHN and RMDG. I know Giorgio was in New york meeting with a major cable distribution company last week. I just dont have any details on that. And lastly, keep up the good work here. I am proud of all of you for using your minds instead of losing them courtesy of the shorters and or bashers. Long and Strong baby!
No problem. Knowledge is power remember that. We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Long and strong!
No I am not Giorgio my friend. He doesnt take these boards very seriously at all. He is just serious about doing what he does. Thanks for the compliment though. lol
You tell him Manny.
I asked that question about being reporting when I first invested with them and I like the answer he gave me. For RMDG to be fully reporting and jump onto the bulletin board which is what we all want, there will be significant costs involved for the company. He is very conservative on the money side and is involved in a bunch of high profile projects that can be cash intensive. His plan was to put three to five million in the bank and then do the necessary filings to make that happen. Again, a good plan. A young company like this shouldnt necessarily make the jump and choke its working capitol structure to do so. Then what? They are a fully reporting company that can report they have no money to fund their ventures. Again.....Common sense will always prevail once we take emotion out of the mix. Long and Strong baby!
Brian. We brought that up to giorgio in an unrelated inquiry to link our sites with his. He told us that it is not even a website they did. I know the "official" Roc Monee website is being done now because someone we also use is doing it. He is also doing the one for Myspace. Both web sites that are up now are "wanna be" sites. Happens all the time when someone starts getting famous.
no problem Big j.
Right on tomee. Now we know where you stand. Lets look at it like this. If we all invested in a company that was brand new for under a penny a share and they were able to start doing business within a year with all of the key players of the music buz plus some key urban media broadcast outlets (RHN) and got their first artist on about 50 radio stations across the country plus an upcoming video by liquid burrell. Wouldn't we be happy? Of course we would! Thats what we have so far folks. Thats RMDG.
Leaps can you verbalize what you are saying with your last post. Would be very helpful for all of us. Thanks. By the way, cool graphics.
Was going back to read only status but am editing my post now. I am going no where! I am staying! Lets clean this up. Good luck everyone. If you want to read a real board go to the other one at investorsparadise.com. They dont allow bashing at all. Go Roc, Kuntree, and RMDG! Long and Strong!!!!!!!!!!
You guys are a joke. How do you say hitting Roc bottom when we are on the uptick. Obviously one of your boys told you we were talking intelligently here and told you to get back to bashing. I dont know how much more of this I can take. See, I try to provide some great info on the boards which is what they are for and I am stuck with un intelligent jerks like you. 007 if we are hitting "Roc bottom" like you said then sell your damn shares. Take that to the bank. Shaken not stirred! Maybe your name should be 00 short seller or Gold Finger Stock Price Manipulator! idiot. sell your position now or did you sell it before you had it? Was that your guy that traded 358 shares the other day? Knowledge is power baby! Long and Strong!
Total888 learn command of the english language before you start bashing here. What are you talking about. Listen everyone, we need to get all the idiots off of the board here. This is why i like investors paradise. No nonsense. No idiots. No bashers. just a good comprehensive look at all corporate developments. Total888 you totally dont matter. Now stop messing with our investment money by running your mouth and get out of here. We are talking business not nonsense! Keep it moving!
Just talked to Mark Davis at RMDG. He said Itunes album release is 10/3. overdrive has been on there for a while now. Did you buy it? You should. As a shareholder, its nice to support the company you own a piece of.
I would like a buy back now too. Lets take a look at this. If we were running RMDG now and had limited monies to execute our media projects, we just stopped raising money and closed our 504, and we just got our first two money makers on retail shelves. Do you think now is the time for a buy back. No way, not gonna happen. If I know him, he will wait until he gets a huge chunk of change in the bank and then start buying back shares. One thing is certain. Based on the fact that he has not talked reverse and not done one this buy back plan looks like it is very much in the mix to me. I might call him on that one later.
Kuntree is next. Raeshon is after him but the first release on sul sol. I agree, Kuntree is dope too. We tried to sign him but Giorgio had him locked down for three albums already. Thats actually how we met. It was on negative terms but Giorgio flipped it into a positive thing and now we are going to be riding together doing business. I think one of the reasons why this has started to work for RMDG is because they are not afraid of another Hip Hop company's success. They are applying the win win to Hip Hop. As far as the comments on the video. Your looking at the rough cut of the video in a very low res file. ive seen the whole thing. There is a car chase and some dope club scenes in it. Its really dope. seargent whatever your name is, Giorgio obviously spent money using Liquid burrel. He does all of Alicia Keys videos and he produced the big selling dvd for her the diary of alicia keys which was so good it almost landed on the big screen. We are much larger than RMDG and we would only use him for one of our top stars. I didnt know I was on a board with Clive Davis, jimmie I of interscope and Jay Z! lol just kidding. Quick question for you all though. If any of you do any gardening did you stand above the seed and start screaming at it the day you put it into the ground? ha ha ha. Something special is happening here. Have some faith. We got a good one here. Now, I have to stop looking at this board or I'll never get any work done. See you all later.
You go santa! Hold this board down and keep it positive. Bye everyone. Have to run for a couple hours. Will be back. Long and strong all day long!
No I do not although I know John Lee for a while. I work for a much larger company. We do well into the tens of millions a year.
More like wait and see. Give this thing a chance skid. Once again. Just read what is going on with Arts info on board at the top. There is a boatload going on here. That should re charge your confidence. You dont understand. Hip Hop needed a company like this badly. One that conducted itself like a corporation and didnt promote violence. Their headlines talk about business not shootings. Kids need these as well. Lets look at the political advantages of that in the music side of the game. Last year Will Smith won one of the major award organizations top hip hop act award because they were sick of gangsta rap and violent story lines in songs. Along comes RMDG with this hip hop meets wall street thing and the distributors give them so much love that they sign up with over 60 around the world! Why? because the distributors dont see a potential for any downside risk with violence and bad behavior. Thats why they root for them all day long. Now I will be honest, no one thought they would be able to come out of the blocks with two acts as solid as roc and kuntree. I dont know how that happened but lets enjoy it. Mark my words, these guys will be top players in the industry very shortly.
Tooniverse have some patience my man or jump out if you like. If you look at my posts from yesterday you will see that every project that runs through Universal as a distributor does not receive its initial reporting or payout for 60 days after release date. It is however received every 30 days after that. Roc's album dropped two days ago and Blockstar thirty days before that. What school of business did you go to bro? Was it an online college course? lol Once again, let common sense prevail. This company is a bargan at these numbers all day long. When you lose patience on an investment always go back to the due dilligence, then look at the show and prove(in this case did the releases occur digitally and in stores) and then look at your pocket book and ask yourself can you afford to hold your position in your current cash flow position? Once again, common sense makes dollars and sense my man. Fear and paranoia tend to rot the brain. If you see a basher post something ignore it. In Hip Hop we call this the hater ration nation syndrome. It has nothing to do with reality but has more to do with manipulation and short positions. By the way, did you support your financials here and buy the album yourself and tell everyone you know to go buy it? Are you having your kids request it on the radio alongside you? Enough said. Keep it moving!
Good day everyone. Had a minute and thought I would post this. Click on this link. Its a rough piece of Rocs video that my boy posted on you tube not too long ago.
santa I think I saw some posts from you on the other site. Did I? Anyway, I hope I was helpful. Getting a bit tired now. Never posted before just a reader but when I googled the stock symbol found this board. couldn't believe the negative basher crap I read so I posted for the fist time. Kind of fun. Like I said, I have a good relationship with Giorgio. If there is anything I can find out I will post it. In the meantime all I have to say is stop bashing. This company is built on good fundamentals and a great multi media platform. Hip hop never saw anything like this. I mean, who would have thought that Google would be working a Hip Hop company? Not me. now look at what this company did. They signed that deal with them and they are putting together a ton of the RHN content for launch very soon there. So many good things. I think RMDG will be strong for years to come and Giorgio is a very stand up guy who is big on loyalty. If things go right for them next year dont be surpised if a media player like Viacom tries to scoop RMDG up. For now-Goodnight. I am very tired. I hope I was helpful. You will see me again.
skidm sell your shares man. the energy is so negative. its ridiculous for someone that doesnt know the business reporting on it. What are you looking at? Amazon? ha ha ha. What a joke. Whats the matter? Got a big short position? What does skidm stand for? The only thing I can think of is skid mark! Keep it moving bro. This one is a winner. Everyone knows that after the release date at universal the real numbers come in the first statement to the label which is 60 days after. each statement is 30 days after that from then on. If rmdg was depending on Amazon to make their unit sales then I wouldnt invest in them either but thats not the case. Your reaching for straws my man. 58 radio stations playing Roc and the video about to be serviced? They are in great position. And one more thing, he hired a hell of a guy in as president of special projects and promotion. This guy has twenty years experience and worked with all the players at interscope and death row records. "Uncle Fred" as us industry cats call him is the real deal. Everyone in the industry knows him. Saw him last week. He thinks everything is going great with Roc and cant wait to drop kuntree begining 2007.
check this out and read all of the posts from september to today. http://www.investorsparadise.com/m-1131455653/s-75/
By the way. Another factoid for you. Breaking a new artist in the 4th quarter is a tough undertaking. They are doing a kick ass job at RMDG. Talked to Giorgio today and he said he was "amped Up" on Roc's project. 58 radio stations playing him already and 3 dates coming up with G Unit star lloyd banks. Ive heard the album and think its extremely well done. Even if they do a slow burn on it and promote 5 singles to radio they can make a ton of money. We are actually helping them set up a full tour for roc as well. Heard some big Kuntree tracks too. He should be a big earner as well. They got lucky signing both of them for three albums each. good move. By the way, really getting into the basher bs on the board and see someone talking smack about the album not being on itunes. I know for a fact that they are doing a special release date on Itunes with remixes and Rocs video included in offering. again. another good move. i hope people read this damn thing.
Booch, I would rather not say what my company name is but I am sure you would recognize it as we have been in the "game" for over a decade. We are working with rmdg to add more digital distributors to our list and are also going to be very involved with them and RHN in some huge deals the end of this year. When Giorgio aligned with RHN which will soon be the biggest 24 hour hip hop channel on the planet that was huge. It is like a record label doing a joint venture with BET. These are huge deals they just take a minute to pay off fully. Like I said, if people want to cry now because they cant tough it out financially then cut your losses. Im going to be on this board when I can. I am in the middle of a big project myself. By the way, everyone is mad about the divys and that is a joke! At the time they were issued rmdg received I think 20 million shares of wide e convergence. There was 1.7 b in the float at the time so you had to be holding alot of stock to receive any stock at all. I know why Giorgio did that deal, because he was trying to protect the shareholders of the company by squeezing the short position on the stock a little. A very wise move indeed. It obviously needs to be done again. By the way, I saw a post in investors paradise about P Diddy having interest in buying RMDG. Anyone know anything about that?
I usually dont post on boards. I just found this one today. I read alot on investorsparadise.com because they are strict with who they let on as guests to post. If you look at the rmdg board there it is alot more detailed regarding the rmdg business platforms and structure. Will post link soon to latest posts there. By the way, no disrespct to this board meant at all.
your welcome, I really want people to know I mean this. I know the business
Several factors involved with this co. First I think it is important to use common sense here. I am a music professional with eight years exp in the hip hop genre and also work for a company that does business with RMDG. In my spare time I also invest in the market. I do three to four a year and only invest if I am serious about something. I know alot about RMDG and how they work with their vendors. I have met Giorgio Costonis and have seen him in action. This is an extremely bright dude that alot of other music companies will take the lead from. He is tough in negotiations and is huge on cost effectiveness. I know you dont know it but there arent any other labels out there including Sony and others that have the distribution thing on lock down like those guys. I know our company is looking to use his "pipes" to generate more money in some of our releases in 2007. He has the company involved in alot more than is public knowldege now. The reason I know this is because he invited us to particpate in these other deals. You have a fearless CEO here that is great at recognizing an opportunity and putting it together in a way that benefits RMDG and all of the companies they work with. We love working with those guys because of that very reason. As far as the stock price goes, this is a huge opp for everyone to grab at these levels. For anyone in the trading game, you saw the mms trading real small numbers like 358 shares the other day signaling manipulation and shorting. Hello! IS anyone there? This board has more bashers than I have ever seen in any other. It has been my experience that a "real" shareholder would have sold their position once they went down to a certain level not stay in and just bash over and over again. The bashers are bad because they shake the confidence of good people. They work much like the devil, not far off, however, this is a good sign. If there was nothing going on here then they wouldnt work so hard to hold it down. Dont sweat it, they got the universal machine churning out product and you got a good capable staff that knows the buz over there in Philly. One more thing, that Roc Monee kid is destined to be a star. I saw the video already and its off the chain. Sorry so long of a post but i had a lot to say. Shareholders of RMDG stay tuned! My position is Lonnnnnnnnng and Strong baby!
I agree
