April 3rd, 2009

The music industry is an even playing field and Ty Cohen is out to prove that everyone, even upcoming musicians, can create their own niche and attract a huge following. The music business consultant and multi-media expert, together with music guru, Jawar, will host a new radio show that aims to inspire struggling music artists to work towards achieving their goals. Motivational Music Radio, aired over www.MotivationalMusicRadio.com, is mainly a radio talk show that offers advice, tips and information about anything that has to do with the music business industry and how upcoming artists can succeed on it.

“Motivational Music Radio was created for the independent artist, the label owner, producer, songwriter and anyone who works in this business and everyone who wants to be successful in the industry,” says Platinum Millennium president Ty Cohen. “The show is going to provide every musician with practical information to help him promote his music and make it sell in the global market.”

For Cohen and Jawar, every musician is going to need more than just talent to make it big in the industry. Even the seasoned artists need help as far as marketing and promotions are concerned. Motivational Music Radio is a talk show that will cover case studies, workshops and useful tools that will lead musicians to success.

The new radio show is an interactive webinar but goes beyond traditional workshops on music industry success. Because it is interactive, it welcomes call-ins and live chats from listeners who want to speak with the hosts throughout the program.

“We understand that a musician already knows the traditional rules of the industry by heart so we’re going to save listeners from the misery of hearing cliché,” Cohen adds. “The show offers new information that was gathered from years of observing how the industry works. These are things that independent artists will need but interestingly, they never get to learn on their own.”

For Cohen and Jawar, who both believe that a musician needs all the help to bring in CD sales and a loyal fan base, the Motivational Music Radio show is expected to become a realistic survival guide for music artists who want to make it big.
