Txttunes Partners With Legendary Hip-Hop Label Latin Thug Music for New Projects from Jackass' Steve-o and Emerging Superstar Solow13
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 12, 2008 -- Txttunes (www.txttunes.com), a leading mobile music provider and marketing company, is proud to announce a new partnership with Latin Thug Music, which will include a global marketing effort for new releases by Steve-o and Solow13.
Steve-O is the well-known prankster from Jackass, and he and rising star Solow13 are label-mates on the famed Latin Thug label, home to B Real of Cypress Hill's hugely successful Gunslinger series (a recent partner of Txttunes himself with his Gunslinger III release). The Dumbest A$$hole in Hip Hop is Steve-o's debut rap album and will be featured on Txttunes' home page as part of a global marketing campaign. Solow13's debut hip-hop album Warrior13 will also debut on Txttunes in the coming weeks.

Gunslinger III release last month, which allows for immediate text purchasing and direct fan connection.

Even with these two diverse projects, Txttunes works for us to provide a great alternate purchase method for our artists' music, without sacrificing any digital or physical sales, as well as a powerful tool to build direct relationships with fans thru the development of text communities."
