Label Shuts Down Blog Site
Posted by The Urban Blogger on Thursday, February 28th, 2008
Kevipod Music a very popular mp3 blog was shut down by Blogger.com after leaking Mariah Carey’s new single “Touch My Body”. A concerned blogger emailed Kevin, the owner of the site, in which he responded:
Yeah, i was the one who deleted my new URL and Myspace site. I don’t want to give really any details i just will say that something “serious” happened to me yesterday. For that reason, i deleted all the sites related to “Kevipod”. I’m afraid i won’t be able to comeback to the blog business for REAL REAL long time.
I’m currently working on sending emails to all my visitors to tell them the exact thing i’m telling you now.
kev.
Until now, mp3 blogs have been used by independent artists, producers and some label reps to leak songs to create buzz around a release. This poses a serious question. What is the future of mp3 blogs?

That’s one of the most important reasons why bloggers need to run self-hosted blogs.
