Hoodillustrated Catches up King Keem and the Marketing machine Behind Him!!

           

1.Being That the Music industry is like a Revolving Door what is Your Plan to have longevity and a successful Career?

There's a lot of talented people out now. Some more talented than myself, honestly I just plan to outwork, out rap, out sing, out prouduce, and out write they asses. Lol

2. What are 4 Major ingredients that a record From king Keem Consist of?(What Should People Expect)

Fire  ass beats, Catchy Hooks, Strong melodies, Great stories.. when I write my songs they have to have the

3 R's. Easy to Relate, Easy to Remember, and Easy to Recite.


3.In The climate of Hip Hop out today what is Different About Your Sound? My music is a combination of Rap & R&B just like Drake just with hint of more masculinity.

4. Are You Signed? Yeah . I'm signed to Martian music group. We have a few majors who approached us already. Not sure were ready to make that leap. We kinda want to stay indie major like tech nine & Macklemore.

5.What could the streets be Anticipating from king Keem  For the Fall Of 2014?

My #Ratchet Party Tour. We hitting all the colleges in the southeast region promoting the #RatchetParty EP. I got HITS on there for real. Like On that, For Me, #Ratchet party of course, Fiend which surprisingly more dudes like than the females and I wrote that with the ladies in mind. Lol

6.What is Your Home Town? I live between Atlanta & Charlotte. I grew up in Atlanta But lately I'm more in Charlotte. I live there with my manager & CEO Marvin Da Martian

7. How Could Dj's Book You?
Hit up my manager at marvin@martianmusicgroup.com or call 704-699-6885

1-How long have you been in the music industry? I've worked in the music industry since 2001 when I started my first company Elese Entertainment. 
 
2-how did that go? I sold over 200,000 copies of my artist CD's. Got a publishing deal, had a few label offers. It was cool.
 
3-So this is not your first rodeo? Naw. I was fortunate to get a few major placements in films and television and the opportunity to work with a few greats like Bruno Mars before he blew. That's was really dope. He's a great person.
 
4-So we hear you do all your own marketing is that correct? Yeah. This music. Business is a very dirty game. There's so many people trying to take advantage of you. I got tired of empty promises and just decided to roll up my sleeves and do the GRUNT work. Lol punt intended.
 
5-How is it you're able to sell so many downloads when others are struggling? I just understand human nature and most importantly why people buy so I cater my marketing strategies to suit the consumers needs and just attach my product so we both win, it's really that simple.
 
6-Give us an example. Alright for instance. Nothing is more important to a person than their birthday. So I invested in 2 huge party buses tricked out with lasers fog machines, flat screen TV's and a crazy sound system. What I do is I give a $5 party to keems fans for their birthday when they buy any of his EP's. Now In Charlotte a party bus can run any where from $500-1000 for 4 hours. So I give Keems fans the bus for $5 and each of their guest just has to download the EP or single as their ticket to get on the bus. They get to party with their friends for next to nothing, they ride around for hours listening to music on a playlist I created with all of today's hottest music & Keems music included of course. They get an inexpensive party bus to party with their friends and I get the downloads direct to their smart phones...everybody wins? 
 
7-What's the ultimate goal for Martian Music Group? To be an independent major. I want to be like Diddy, & Dame Dash, better yet I am the new Russell Simmons.
 
8-So does GRUNT promotions take on other clients? Absolutely. It is my goal to be the most effective catalyst for independent artist to come to if they're serious about going to the next level.
 
9- How can artist contact you for help with their projects? The can call the office at 704-699-6885 and set up a meeting. Well listen to the music and see if it's something we can market.
