Why not forward this?

The track I submitted to this listing is called "Sunday Gets the Shaft" and is on my Taxi page. Please give it a listen if you have time. I'm really baffled as to why this wasn't forwarded.....
Listing Y190513SV
ORIGINAL, 1970s-SOUNDING, SOUL/FUNK INSTRUMENTALS are needed for an (up to) $12,000 placement by a NON-Exclusive Publisher that’s feeding material to the Music Supervisor of a Hit TV Series.
They’re looking for Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumentals (recently recorded/Retro-sounding or Vintage Recordings can both work) that would fall within the general stylistic wheelhouse of the following references we got from our client:
“Pusherman” by Curtis Mayfield
“Theme From Shaft” by Isaac Hayes
“It's Your Thing” by The Isley Brothers
Quoting Our Source: “The Instrumental should be in a '70s Soul/Funk style, in the general range of the references. The production can be modern as long they're able to capture the vibe of the references.”
Give them original, full-length Instrumentals with a classic, authentic Soul and/or Funk vibe and feel. Your Instrumentals should have plenty of personality, infectious rhythms, soulfully expressive melodies, funky bass lines, and solid, in-the-pocket drum parts. Your submission must maintain a groove in order for it to work for this request!
All submissions should be 2-3 minutes long, give or take. Non-Faded endings with a natural ring out will work best. Do not copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for overall feel, texture, and tone. Broadcast quality is needed.
Listener ID # 309 - Your instrumental has good energy as well a Funk influence that's appealing to the listing. Adding more Soulfulness as well as some '70s influenced R&B styles similar to the references would bring you closer to the listings range.
Hmm.... You can't hear the "soulfulness" or "'70s influenced R&B styles" already present in this track?
EDIT: I have to contact Taxi on Monday and figure out why no one can play my tracks..... Thanks for looking though!
