Release: PARTHINIE ENTERTAINMENT/LIGHTYEAR SET TO RELEASE SEAN GEMINI'S INNER ME Up and Coming Recording Artist Sells Over 100, 000 Copies of Product New York, NY MAY 2005 What would you do if you sold 114,000 copies of a six-song EP in just six months? You finish the album and start your own music label, right? Thats exactly what Sean Gemini did this year and the result is Inner Me (Parthinie/LightYear), the album debut CD (R&B/POP) set for release in JUNE 2005. This project promises to showcase the complexity and distinctive sides of the talented artist and his many facets. The New York born (he now resides in Los Angeles) Sean Gemini first hit the music scene in 1999 as a member of THE WHAT, an up and coming Hip Hop trio, whose first single, Turn It Up reached # 39 on the Billboard Top 100 Singles Chart. Sean not only rapped on the song but he also sang background on the track. Sharing the stage with the likes of ICE CUBE, RUN DMC, ICE T and THE WU TAN CLAN was considered a dress rehearsal for his solo career. Before an album could be released the company ran into financial difficulties so I didnt quite take off as well as I would have liked. However I was able to grow and become well-rounded because of the experience. remarks the 66 Gemini. As a solo artist Sean Gemini toyed with the option of either being a singer or a rapper. The answer was made for him with the release of an EP last May on the internet. As a result of his strong entrepreneurial spirit, the product sold 114,000 pieces over a period of three months. Because I dont consider myself like other artists, I didnt want to put myself out there (to the music industry) as such. I researched the internet and found that there were several notable recording artists and authors (Prince, Malcolm Jamal Warner, etc), that were utilizing the internet to sell their product. Creative marketing via the chat rooms as well as internet cafe flyers created a fast buzz and a fan-base was quickly formed. Sean remembers I sent the album to a few labels (LightYear being one of them). Greg Riles (title) finally took a listen to it was in his words was blown away. Unfortunately, Riles couldnt find his contact information and had to track Sean down via the internet. The end result is Inner Me. Inner Mes (R&B) 16 tracks support Seans intense sexuality, spirituality and political awareness.The first single ,Cocain,(B-side is Champagne) an R&B/Hip Hop flavored song that describes the addicting love affair Sean Gemini once had with a beautiful woman, is scheduled to be shipped to radio in January 2006.. This marketing strategy is designed to allow the listener to uncover all that Sean Gemini is-- versatile, gifted and most of all ever-changing. Executives at Parthinie Entertainment are confident that Sean Geminis R&B Style will appeal to record buyers around the country. The music label is now preparing a creative marketing/promotion/internet campaign that will involve street promotion strategies in various markets, as well as an extensive national retail campaign for the album. Sean will go out on a six city promo tour in February where he will visit radio stations, retail outlets and perform in the hottest clubs in each market. The label will also seek out opportunities for Sean Gemini to open on a few of the Hip hop and R&B tours scheduled for first quarter of 2006. RIGHTNOISE. 2005 |
