You know, i actually haven't watched the whole show, just up until the clip of them using the song. Its when the dude is on the phone with his GF and she is all pissed at him and its kinda a rough moment. lol. But on the link it at least gives us credit there, lol.

Apparently we have to wait like 6 months for royalty checks....gah boo hisss

Congrats on the exposure, always nice to see folks go from the NG Audio Portal to the "real world", as it were.

Response to Ng Artist Heard On Mtv 2010-01-25 08:30:24


Congratz !!!
Hope to see more people in this situation.
As for the 6 months payment waiting, well, at least you know that you'll get some money.

not related

I remember I had a concert contracted by a BIG and fancy corporation for a 10 or 20 years anniversary of corporation and was in the contract that they will pay us in less than 2 weeks... after 6 months we still didn't get the money.

Eh, I have to sell one kidney to afford a lawyer, on the other hand, they have armies of lawyers... not a win situation for me.
This is how decent people get stepped on in the "civilized" world.
But don't worry, we told to EVERYBODY how the payed us...

Response to Ng Artist Heard On Mtv 2010-01-25 12:24:15


Wow! this is hope giving for all NG artists that secretley want to go big.

Response to Ng Artist Heard On Mtv 2010-01-25 14:09:03


Congrats guys. How did it all come together? Did they randomly find your song or is someone a fan?

Yeah... I've even had that problem with really simple events before.

Hell.. took us 3 months to get paid for a high school homecoming we played. You just gotta start spamming the hell out of em with invoices til they finally pay your ass.

Some music company a few months ago found us on Myspace and said they work with MTV, and we were like "sure" since you get spammed all sorts of things on Myspace. But we signed a non exclusive license and low and behold they weren't shi**ing us, guess they really worked with MTV.
