Objective is to market an artist as “intellectual property,” establishing the entire artist ““ his/her/their name and appearance, art, cultural place and role, music compositions, and other aspects ““ as something that speaks to consumers, as a valued, trusted meaningful brand.Al Bell Presents, LLC (ABP) announces the formation of an “Artist Career Development and Entertainment Creation Company” engaged in the business of creating and developing careers for one-of-a-kind and authentic “Rare Performing Artists.”
In this capacity, ABP performs or arranges all of the functions that managers, promoters, marketing firms, booking agents, record companies, talent agents and others have done historically, with the focused objective of developing an artist’s career across an entire spectrum of the artist’s potential.
This paradigm embodies a major industry advance over the traditional “one-album, one-tour-at-a-time” mode of doing business, and is done with the express purpose and benefit to create iconic careers for rare artists that “stand the test of time,” and to establish a business with each artist that, when success is realized, becomes an annuity, generating money for the rest of their lives.”
The traditional ways of doing business in the music industry are no longer appropriate for the development of rare (one-of-a-kind, authentic) artists’ careers considering the changes and evolution that has taken place in the music and entertainment worlds,” says Al Bell, Chairman/CEO of Al Bell Presents.
“Al Bell Presents’ New Career Development Paradigm for Rare Performing Artist places, in a profitable manner, its sole emphasis on the artist’s career development, growth, financial stability, and security first. We are not offering the new 360-degree type record label deals some traditional labels are offering.”
Noting that the continuous growth of the Internet has given rise to an “ever-evolving” music industry, Mr. Bell explains that recorded music companies have created models to adapt to these changes and, in many instances, they are beginning to turn the financial corner and generate profits for the first time in years.
Within this business landscape, his emphasis is on developing artists for career growth, and working with all of the recorded music companies.”Traditional music industry and entertainment models look to create an album or a tour or a show, but our model develops the artist’s entire career,” Mr. Bell observes.
