R&B forward to Nashville publisher

Post by TerrellBurt » Fri Jan 16, 2015 12:28 pm

This is the third forward for my R&B song "Sunlight," and this time it was to a reputable Nashville publisher. Was doing some research on them and they have done some great things in the past. I hope they like what they hear! You can hear the song either on my Soundcloud or TAXI pages.

CONTEMPORARY, SINGLE-WORTHY R&B SONGS with plenty of CROSSOVER APPEAL and Female Vocals are needed by a Nashville-based Music Publisher for a Chart-Topping, Mulit-Platinum artist working on a brand new record. Give them amazing Down-to-Mid-Tempo Songs that would instantly appeal to the fans of artists like Jordin Sparks, JoJo, Stacie Orrico, etc., etc. Quoting the source: "We want songs with authentic emotion in the lyric and melody. Song need to be an undeniable hit single. Lyric themes are open, as long as there's some depth. Something that's contrived or been done a million times before won't work." Songs need to have well-crafted lyrics, with an amazing melody that lets this artist shine. Attention-grabbing hooks and a killer chorus that delivers a huge emotional release will definitely help get you noticed for this pitch. Your recording quality needs to be clean, clear, well balanced, and good enough to represent your song well. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than Tuesday, December 30, 2014. TAXI #Y141230RB

I agree. It's a solid track. Still need to make some tweaks to the wordiness and bridge melody and I'll think it'll sound even more polished.

Oh no, I wish. I purchased the beat from a producer I met online.
