RMD Entertainment Announces August 22nd Release Dates for Roc Monee; Television Appearances on Real Hip Hop Network Also Planned to Support Sales Effort at Retail Outlets
Business Wire - June 21, 2006 11:00
PHILADELPHIA, Jun 21, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- RMD Entertainment Group (Pink Sheets:RMDG) announced earlier today that they have received approval by both Bungalo Records, exclusively distributed by Universal Music Group (a subsidiary of Vivendi Universal (NYSE:V)) in North America and the Pickwick Group Ltd. of London to release Roc Monee's debut album entitled "Diamond in the Rough" in stores on August 22nd.
It was also announced that their newest strategic partner, Real Hip Hop Network (RHN), committed to a minimum of 2 television appearances by Roc Monee on their 24 hour all Hip Hop channel that currently reaches over 30 million households in the United States alone. Roc's first appearance on RHN will be taped this Saturday at Zanzibar in Washington DC for a concert he is performing in alongside Hip Hop Legend LL Cool Jay for RHN's show called Video Request Top Twenty Countdown. RHN is also expected to do a full show profile of the up and coming artist in the near future to be aired on the network and the MOTV Inc. (More TV trademark) platform.
"This is a great day for us here at RMDG. We have begun to realize our success through hard work and proper strategic planning. Roc has created an exceptional album that we feel has at least six singles to promote via radio on it. Our promotion efforts and production efforts for Roc's album are fully funded at this time. I am pleased with the promotion efforts headed by Mr. Frederick Rollins and have seen significant progress in our relationship with our digital distributors like I-Tunes through the efforts of Mark Davis, Head of Digital Distribution." CEO Giorgio Costonis added, "We are launching our revenue campaign on four major fronts simultaneously through this album. 1. North American retail outlet sales of the traditional cd format through Bungalo Records. 2. European retail outlet sales of the traditional cd format through Pickwick Group Ltd. 3. Download sales directly through our existing distribution matrix. 4. Ring-tone sales through our existing ring-tone partners in our distribution matrix (the distribution matrix can be viewed at http://www.rmd-entertainment.com)."
Frederick Rollins, President of special projects added, "The revenue from this project alone could be staggering. In my many years in the hip hop business I have never seen such a complete global distribution model like the one we have now and we are going to be putting it to work in a large way with this album. Roc delivered what may quickly become a classic hip hop album. He has exceeded our expectations as an artist and we remain confident he will be a revenue generating machine for a long time to come."
Dom Rapello, Label Manager for Pickwick Group Ltd of London, said "Roc is truly a special artist and we expect him to sell very well in all European Markets for us."
Roc Monee added, "RMD really believed in me and my talent going into this. I am so glad to see a Hip Hop company that takes good care of their artists and cares about getting positive messages out there to the young people who listen to this music. For them being exposed to bigger business and Wall Street versus the guns and drugs of the hustlers without hope or aspirations might make a profound difference in their lives and help them make the right choices in life."
