Indie Singer Gets Big Names to Promote Him

April 17, 2009 – Independent singer and songwriter E. Walter Smith  is taking promotions to the next level by enlisting the support of some of the biggest names in the music industry. In an interview with Platinum Millennium president Ty Cohen, Smith recounted his strategies for success when it comes to getting noticed in show business. The podcast of the said interview is available through Ty Cohen’s podcast channel at TyCohen.podomatic.com. The channel is one of the many projects managed by Platinum Millennium Publishing, a leading name in multimedia software solutions.

Cohen’s interview with E. Walter Smith covered various aspects of the singer’s career including the support he got from renowned artists such as Tyler Perry and T.I. The international singer enlisted the support of other artists in his Tenderness Campaign.

“Getting connected with the right people does go a long way in the music industry,” says Platinum Millennium president and music business consultant Ty Cohen. “My interview with Smith works to show just how much visibility a cause or even an artist can get by asking the help of bigger artists.”

Cohen goes on to explain that the music industry is a tightly-knit community so it’s not uncommon to hear of reports of artists collaborating towards the success of various causes or to further one another’s careers. “Every upcoming musician needs to understand that he can’t get on top on his own,” he adds. “Impressing the bigger names in the industry is just as important as having great talent.”

The interview with Smith covered the singer’s campaign against domestic violence and how other artists such as rapper T.I helped him with the cause. The platinum selling rapper reportedly recorded a public service announcement for The Tenderness Campaign to further public awareness about domestic violence and abuse. The campaign was inspired by Smith’s own song entitled, Tenderness.
