Fans Treated to Free Single, "Get Low Wit It", Three Weeks Before Official
Release
NEW YORK, May 27 -- Chart-topping entertainers Romeo and
Akon just released their highly anticipated new single "Get Low Wit It" as
a free download on AmieStreet.com. The brand new track is now available
exclusively at AmieStreet.com/romeo a full three weeks before its worldwide
debut on June 17, 2008.
Like previous releases by Radiohead, Prince and Nine Inch Nails, Romeo
and Akon are going directly to fans, bypassing traditional distribution
methods. Fans coming for the new track will also be able to download free
songs from tens of thousands of other artists already available on
AmieStreet.com.
From superstars like Romeo and Akon to unsigned and DIY artists, all
types of musicians sell their music on AmieStreet.com. It is the first
store where all songs start free and then rise in price based on
popularity, up to 98 cents, empowering fans to determine the value of
music.
"Get Low Wit It (featuring Akon)" will be free to download until June
17, 2008. It is the first single from Romeo's forthcoming album, High
School Romance, which will also be available on AmieStreet.com starting
September 2, 2008, and includes songs featuring T-Pain and others.
"This one's for the fans," said Romeo Miller. "They've always been
there for us and dropping this hot track for free is the least we can do to
say thanks for all the support."
In addition to releasing his new music on AmieStreet.com, Romeo is set
to start college at USC as a student-athlete; the young star will be
playing basketball for the Trojans. He is also hard at work on a reality TV
show Romeo's World: Welcome to the Good Life and his animated children's
series Gee Gee the Giraffe. For the latest on Romeo, go to
