Record Hijacking
Everybody's trying to get their grind on in a effort to come up in the music game. With the ease and anonymity of digital uploading, you never know whether or not music tracks that you hear on the Internet are in fact song by the artists claiming the record or even produced by the Producer's name represented.
Our production company had sent a track called "Road Trip" to the R&B group "Kwiet Storm" located here in Atlanta, GA. The track was written, produced and demoed by "Water" of Ice Water Entertainment/Pure Ice Productions. The group never got around to recording the record; however, the record has appeared on Internet sites such as imeem and other blogs. All of the sites list "Kwiet Storm" as the artist singing the song and the "Underdogs" as the Producers.
Of course, we heard "through the grapevine" that Kwiet Storm had nothing to do with the "leak". Seems dubious given that only Kwiet Stom had access to the track!
Welcome to the new game of music marketing and promotions where nothing is necessarily what it seems.
