Sign me I can sing
This and other lines like “my friends say I sound like <artist xy>” is what you find in a label’s inbox too often, and sometimes it comes with a link to a youtube video with some teenager singing a Michael Jackson song at in front of his desk or dancing to it in flip-flops. Included artist info? Zero. Link to artist website? None. Flyers of current shows? Njet.
Serious artists usually promote themself massively with the given countless options untill they are too big to handle it alone before they search for a label or agency. But thanks to inflation of star search shows many wanna-be artists think they have a right to get signed. This is the answer of a label - pretty much universal and cross-genre.
