500 songs signed and recent placements

Post by WeWillWriteUaSong » Fri Aug 10, 2018 6:27 pm

Hey all!

Wanted to swing by and give some updates. Been busier than ever lately, and am extremely grateful to TAXI. Just hit 500 songs signed and published a couple of weeks ago. 76% vocal songs for those curious about those kinds of numbers. Also had some amazing recent placements including:

Young and the Restless (x3)
Black Ink Crew: Chicago
Queen Sugar
Claws (x2)
ATL Homicide
Get Shorty

The placements are really starting to pick up. As are the royalty payments. It's a very exciting time. I am super appreciative of my taxi friends and co-writers who helped me along my journey. I can't wait to see you at the Rally in 82 days!! :D

Congrats! Very cool. I hope to reach that level one day. Curious what kind of tracks were on Claws. We’ve been watching that show!

The first one was played in the salon a few episodes back (ep4) and was a female r&b/hiphop song called Damn I Look Good. The new one was the on the latest episode (ep9) and was actually a featured placement (full volume no dialogue) female rap song called Like A Diamond, and it played while they danced around trying on wedding clothes.
