[BTruth]

Still gettin all the content together, but thats the jist of it folks.

Got some album reviews and an interview with Unexpected Arrival up at the moment.

In the coming days I have 2 articles that are going up, and getting the "Hot 5 songs" on the right side going, then we will bassicly be operational.

I am STILL looking for all help staff wise and any content you have to contribute. Any songs/info/anything you have. Mixtape spots still available, we got like 15 songs.

Puttin a forum up today.

ANY ARTISTS WHO WANT THEIR ALBUM REVIEWED, you can upload your album to yousendit.com and send the link to [email protected]. If its good enough ill buy 10 copies and put them in the store for you all. I plan on gettin UA, Grynch, and Crytical in the store soon.

It needs a better layout IMO. That's shit looks crusty as hell.

I'll put in some work on a new layout if some other graphic designers join in. But I mean that design does not give us justice.

 

[BTruth]

I agree..

It's aight, but nothing professional. We had a couple designers step up, but they either never got back at me after the original email, didn't do layout work, or were just plain too expensive/weren't willing to trade for promotion.

This is temporary, but I figured I needed something to launch with, and get things moving.

I've researched some designers, but if we can find local work id be glad to help them out with promo or whatever when things are moving.

 

[Mr. Samos]

Well like I said I am very willing to help. We can actually have this site looking decent if even a few of us pitched in. The way it looks and functions is the most important thing IMO. The site doesn't need promotion right now, it needs a professional layout.

 

[Mr. Samos]

It doesn't even need to be that complex, just a clean header with navigation, and then some tables with the content.

I'll make one in my spare time and keep you updated on it.

We can do better than this.

 

[BTruth]

aiht cool, and thanks bro

 

[thatguy]

good shit homie, shit lookin clean, keep doin yur thing man

 

[KALYN]

Well like I said I am very willing to help..

Right on.. thats dope..


I think its a great beginning.. there is always room for improvement on someone who's just starting out..

Anything more I can help with (design and website layout is not one of my abilities tho'.. lol..) just let me know..

[BTruth]

I sent you another email back that was never replied to.

When you made your offer we already had someone doing layout work, but dude went MIA on us.

 

[localstar907]

Btruth whats good family. Me and my team trying to get out there any way possible. We have mixtape droping the first week of Febuary. I would like to talk to about a couple things if u have some time. Do u have a contact #. Leave it in my PM.

[thirdeye253]

yes you did send an email, it said "That sounds like a fine deal." i gave you my # on the prior email, that means call me. what more can i say??

if u already had someone doin it you shouldnt have wasted my time from jump. but look man if your down to do business holla at me you have the number.

you should thank kalyn for her great insight on this situation. i'm glad i read her message before i replied to you.

 

[Dak iller]

ohhh booy....Unexpected Arrival's cd "My life for Sale" got 5 space needles out of 5...............Thats off the wall........

 

[BTruth]

...Wasted your time? You never even offered to do a layout. Just some banners and other promotional things like that...

I'll get at you in the coming days with any graphic work we have for you. You've already said you wont do CD covers, so I really have nothing for you to do right now unless your willing to work on a layout for some banner exchanges.

It's all good though, no need to get hostile homie. Only reason you didn't get a call is because I didn't think I had anything you were interested in doing that we needed at the moment.

The reviewer who did that, a friend of mine felt pretty strongly about that...

How do you guys feel? Im skeptical. Im thinking more like 4.5 or as low as 4.

But I did let him review it.

... LOL... seriously? ..or are you being sarcastic..?

Dak is part of the Unexpected Arrival movement... tell him Doug.. "UA allllll day"... :lick:

 

[xpanther206]

Yeah I agree above, I'm just not a big UA fan in general but I know a lot of follks on here are so that's cool.

I think the website looks fine, it just needs to increase the volume obviously, but that will come with time. I'm real glad this guy stepped up and did this, it is a start for something that could potentially one day be on the level of sites like indianarap or ohiorap or northernridaz, a good strong regional source of information.

Buy NorthWestStreets.com too already, dangit. Its worth the <$10 to eliminate any possible confusion.


The site looks cool. The next cool shit is obviously going to be the media, some Lyrics, Videos and MP3s. I'm down to type out some lyrics, but I'd prefer to know in advance what is and isn't already typed out before I get to work. (Someone should make a thread about it.) I probably could type about 10-20 songs a month myself.

 

[Young E.A.S.T]

I really dig the concept, and the initiative to launch this kind of site..............mayn............any kind of promotion you need me to do just let me know, i'm down ten toes............100
