No stranger to the world stage, Arnold G has wooed audiences with his superb stage performances and soulful voice. Arnold G credits his #1win on Soundclick for the dance album "Driven Straight To The Dance Floor" to the rising popularity of his debut single "You Got Me Hot" which has had 6000 + hits in the last few months on myspace.com, the largest networking website in the world! Arnold G believes this success proves there is an audience for independent artists. A&G Vice President Jesse Dorado mentions, "To be part of Grammy at this stage reinforces our belief we've been taking the right steps in all the right directions in terms of building a fan base, and promoting Arnold G as an international artist. We truly believe there will be greater things to come. This opportunity will definitely turn more heads in our direction. The Grammy can be a powerful tool for any independent artist."

A special marketing campaign includes extensive promotion on MySpace, Internet distribution outlets and publications. A distribution agreement was signed with IRIS (www.irisdistribution.com) for digital distribution outlets all over the world. IRIS will also carry the Driven Beyond album and the YOU GOT ME HOT single.

There are a few socially aware songs on Driven Beyond, including the pop-flavored "Carry On," which highlights the importance of AIDS awareness. A special DVD will accompany the track which includes a video montage of lives lost over the years. A portion of the proceeds from the upcoming singles will be donated to groups involved in AIDS awareness education programs. Moreover, other strong messages are sent through "Our Rainbow" (hate crimes), "Angel Eyes" (crystal meth) and "I'm Free" (coping & life challenges).

The Driven Straight To The Dance Floor CD is available at www.agrecordsmusic.com now. The newest single "You Got Me Hot" with 4 different remixes, will be available worldwide on December 18, 2007. The Driven Beyond album will be available on January 15, 2008 worldwide. You may purchase the physical CDs at www.agrecordsmusic.com on those releases dates.
