Drulz: Music for Our Times
The slogan at drulz.com is “expose your music.” Artists performing in different genres have taken that slogan seriously. It’s a great site to go to find new music; it offers a selection from Christian rap to country music. Music artists can come to drulz.com and upload their music and biography to expose themselves to the world. Music fans have the fun of listening to new, interesting music, blogging, and making friends. Members can also create stations, channels, add photos, bookmark favorites, and invite friends. There’s an image gallery to click through and listen to your favorite artist.
Musicians, performers, and bands can read informative articles regarding the music industry that will enlighten them concerning how-to promote their music; they can get advice about how-to not be a starving artist and much more. The music charts allows a member to check out the rating of the groups and performers.
The artist have a home page where they can have a menu containing: songs, store, forum, guest book, comments, contact, press kit, and share this page. They can upload videos and gig schedules. It gives them a good jumping point to get their music heard and their name out on the Internet and to the world at large.
But hey, let’s get on to the artist and play some music. Right now, I’m listening to Mycheal from his album Collections. It is labeled as jazz, which is cool, but it has some definite funk going on. It’s a movin’ and groovin’ instrumental. This song screams get on the floor and bust a groove. All of that and a sweet piano melody too.
Yvonne Cobbs Bey has a great gospel voice. She sounds like gospel refried…that traditional element of gospel exudes from her voice. The backup band and singers are right on the money—their vocals and music bring the listener into the gospel zone. All of this comes out in her album Stand Still.
Kenny Chesney performs a moving country ballad in the song Don’t Blink from his album Just Who I am. The lyrics tell a story that most people can relate to and it is a reminiscence with an old man telling his story to the younger guy and giving sound advice. It’s a perfect song for a country soul.
The thing is a member can listen to everything from club to soul to contemporary Christian..now that is a stretch. Drulz has it and members can expand their listening pleasure and scope or stay with their tried and true genres. After listening, the member can write a review or rate the song. Drulz let’s you do it all.
Listen to a variety of music by clicking on the different stations or on the songs on the different artist pages. It is a true online community for artists and fans. Fans can also subscribe to RSS feeds and hear their favorite music. In case the pronunciation of the site’s name is bugging you—it is d rules.
