About this project
I truly think SEO can bring attention and exposure to a cause or entity. In this case, I believe it can get me somewhere in my music career. Help me find out. I have one album done and I'm starting another - raising money to complete it. I started an experiment to test my SEO skills to try to rank for popular keywords like music in new york or new york music - maybe best nyc music too :) Check out the original video here.
About the music:
I am back in the studio recording the second album. The team is growing. The message is gaining power and belief. You know what I am about - help me get the second album finished so I can double my set list time and start getting real gigs. Real gigs = real exposure and fan base building.
FOR $1000 WE CAN GET:
Two days in the studio = 2-3 songs
*please note the album will cost around $10,000 to complete*
I am offering three basic rewards in exchange for your support. I am asking for genuine donations from those that truly believe in my message for what it is. Want change? Donate. The world needs to hear what I have to say.

FAQ
-
The album is a reward for generously donating so I can book studio time.
-
I certainly can, if air fair and lodging is taken care of. If you donate at that reward level and we are not in the same area, I will make a note and contact you when I find myself touring in your area. I stick to my words and love meeting true believers and fans.
-
You can donate as much as you want via the Kickstarter platform. Donating larger amounts will yield custom rewards. Contact me to discuss.

You can read the typical bio below but here's the real deal:
I am on a mission to change the world with music. I want to influence with political power but not as a politician. I am harnessing the power of audio and using it to affect the brain in positive ways. My lyrics are intelligent and thought provoking. My sounds are untapped and intriguing. Come with me and change the man in the mirror, change yourself to change the world. I can teach you.
-------
Growing up in the Philadelphia suburbs, Chad was always interested in performing. At 5 years old, he would dance to Michael Jackson in the living room and later perform in lip syncs and talent shows. He began writing seriously in April of 2009 while completing his degree at Art Institute of Pittsburgh. He is now in New York City and gearing up for a major leap in his career. He recorded his first single – Life Is A Ride – in April of 2010. Chad’s mission is to bring happiness to the masses with his uplifting lyrics and catchy melodies. He is branding a new genre – Neo Pop – a mix of pop, rap, dance and rock with a lyrical style never heard before.
