'TMI BOYZ'...TAKEOVER TEXAS!!!!!!
(STEAL-DJ FAT ALBERTA-TMI BOYZ)
TMI Boyz are killing it! In an industry that's ripe with decreased
sales across the board, it sure is nice to see a Southern indie label doing well.
TMI Boys hit a chart high of #6 on the Billboard Rap Sales Chart, which
prompted the good folks at Billboard to call us for an interview. With
almost 30,000 CDs sold (at chain stores and independent stores), TMI Boyz
are releasing their fourth and last single from "Grinding For A Purpose."
"I MADE IT" is a song that expresses how we all feel about what our
18 month grind has achieved! The Shawty Redd produced track is melodic
and a great summer hit!! It has been burning at the clubs for months
and is about to take radio by storm.
TMI Boyz are available for shows by calling Reese at 409.256.7313.
Nominated for an Ozone Award this year, be sure to catch the guys
in Houston as the Ozone Awards come to their home town, August 8-11!
Thanks to all of the major labels that are expressing interest in TMI Boyz!
