Lily Allen is the most famous example of promoting her music on Myspace, which is now not so popular, but this is how she established a fan base, and is a reason as to why she is so successful nowadays. She has several videos on her myspace including music from the beginning of her career like Smile, Alfie and more recent songs like Fear. Posting her music on social networks sites helps promote her music, by anybody using the site can see a link that directs them to her page, and from there they can navigate around the site and listen to her music. This is a very good way of promoting her music free of charge on the website. She will gain a fan base and earn money by encouraging her music.
Another current artist who promotes there music via Myspace is Rizzle Kicks. They are an english rap duo. I recently logged onto Myspace myself, this is how I found out about their music. They are quite individual in their music and promoting themselves over Myspace is a good way to go about advertising their music to the type of fan base they are aiming their music at, who happen to use social networking sites, like Myspace. Rizzle Kicks have been active since 2008 but only really been exposed over the past year. They have recently featured in some bigger artists songs including Olly Murs.
