Letter from the Creator
Hooray! it’s the 3rd issue of Talented and I’m pleased to say we are taking off all across the nation. I designed this magazine with you in mind, we all have been to the grocery or convenient store waited in the checkout line and glossed over all the magazines featuring mega stars we all recognize. What if we stood in that same checkout line but this time you seen someone you didn’t know. You pick up the magazine and you realize that this person is just like you struggling to get their Talent seen or heard. How would you feel? I asked myself the same question and my answer was I’d be unbelievably happy that someone created a magazine to help me. That’s what Talented does it helps bridge the gap from dim light to the lime light. Traveling all around the nation discovering talent is a blessing but it’s also heartbreaking. I’ve lost count on how many great entertainers I’ve encountered that should be on the big screen or in a stadium rocking a crowd but aren’t because of minor things holding them back. Let’s use promotion as an example the average Mcees will spend about $65 an hour for studio time to record his or her single then you have to pay to reproduce copies of that single then you have to pay the proper channels to promote your product for you . Depending on whom you may now the prices may vary in each scenario but the point remains the same becoming famous isn’t cheap. So say you can afford all the hidden cost but you live in California and you want to reach a crowd in Atlanta that could be a potential problem or maybe not. Talented is here to help, with over 10,000 digitally downloaded copies from all the major markets VA,GA,FLA, and NY we have what it takes to get you noticed all we are missing is you. We wanted to cut out the middle man by giving you virtual studios affordable advertisement and uncanny artwork for what ever your next big event could be or is. The object is to build a networking self sustaining magazine for those who struggle to be heard or seen let’s face it the reason you don’t blow shouldn’t be because of who you don’t know. Talented is normally released the 1st of the month every other month to allow full exposure of the talented people featured in each issue. We held this particular issue back due to a close friend passing away so we would like to dedicate this issue to Lamon Price we love you and miss very much god has you now and that’s the best place to be my friend.
