Kanye West Promises To Release A New Song Every Week


i was on twitter this morning when i read a tweet by super star Rapper and producer kanye west announcing that he will be realising a song every friday untill christmass in what he calls good fridays.

"I know ya'll need the music so am dropping 1 new song every friday untill Xmas.it may be my song it maybe a new jay song etc"

well, to me this reflects the current state of music in the digital era where the artists no longer have to wait for the record label to devise promotional campaigns and to release singles. the route to market has been made simple by the internet where by the artist simply records a song and passes it on directly to the fans and in return they get free promotion which pays off through tours. times have changed.
