Fans Treated to Free Single, "Get Low Wit It", Three Weeks Before Official Release
NEW YORK, May 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Chart-topping entertainers Romeo and Akon just released their highly anticipated new single "Get Low Wit It" as a free download on AmieStreet.com. The brand new track is now available exclusively at AmieStreet.com/romeo a full three weeks before its worldwide debut on June 17, 2008.
Like previous releases by Radiohead, Prince and Nine Inch Nails, Romeo and Akon are going directly to fans, bypassing traditional distribution methods. Fans coming for the new track will also be able to download free songs from tens of thousands of other artists already available on AmieStreet.com.
From superstars like Romeo and Akon to unsigned and DIY artists, all types of musicians sell their music on AmieStreet.com. It is the first store where all songs start free and then rise in price based on popularity, up to 98 cents, empowering fans to determine the value of music.
"Get Low Wit It (featuring Akon)" will be free to download until June 17, 2008. It is the first single from Romeo's forthcoming album, High School Romance, which will also be available on AmieStreet.com starting September 2, 2008, and includes songs featuring T-Pain and others.
"This one's for the fans," said Romeo Miller. "They've always been there for us and dropping this hot track for free is the least we can do to say thanks for all the support."
In addition to releasing his new music on AmieStreet.com, Romeo is set to start college at USC as a student-athlete; the young star will be playing basketball for the Trojans.
