Ep 42 ComicPop Visits with Rhonda Rees about Book Piracy, Pt 2

Join the ComicPop Crew in our second part of our visit with Rhonda Rees of Rhonda Rees PR.  Rhonda is the author of Profit and Prosper with Public Relations: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success, which was pirated.  With her recent accolades: Publicist of the Year from the Book Publicists of Southern California; an IRWIN Award (Industry Recognition of Writers in the News); and most recently Rhonda has been the recipient of the Publicist of the Year Award from the Bulldog Reporter, she has set about to educate the industry on the real threat of book piracy that exists not only for the big press, but for the small press as well.

Thank you again to Rhonda for visiting with us.  It was a pleasure and we look forward to visiting with her again.  We have her title, Profit and Prosper with Public Relations: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success, that she is graciously allowing us to read and then get back with her to visit specifically about her book and the Public Relations field.

MOXXI’s Single “Ransom”

museMOXXI

MOXXI is a very unique individual, and am I the only one that thinks of YouTube’s Boxxy whenever you say her name? lol Anyways, I thought MOXXI’s song “Ransom” was overall very good. Usually I’m not a fan of electronic music but because this song had a lower sound to it I really enjoyed it. MOXXI herself I was torn about; I didn’t mind her voice not being as clear because the music was clear and she sang in a comfortable register but I couldn’t understand her words. The vibe for “Ransom” was also a little confusing and I didn’t enjoy it very much. I couldn’t make sense of the video but I think if I understood MOXXI’s words it would make more sense.

– April B.

This song is definitely one you will hear at a nightclub.  MOXXI, I believe is intentionally blending her voice with the music.  It doesn’t sound bad, but it does make it hard to hear the lyrics as April commented on. – Richard

The video for “Ransom” is for limited distribution so we can’t show it here, but if you want to listen to the song and watch the music video you can find it on YouTube.
