The Sound Genuis Herself

Sound Genuis consits of new music. Sound genius is all about finding the real music out there. IT's about searching for the beats that get people up and moving. It also gives a chance to expose the new and underground artists looking for a push to the top.
It also allows people to express their opinions about the music or the artist that create it. To me music is the soul and the beauty of the world. So I feel like it is my duty go get out the new beats to the world.
So don't be shy, were all open-minded here. Wheater it's good opinions or bad I listen to them all.
If you happen to hear some new sounds on the radio or the internet, or where ever you may be, don't be afraid to comment on them because I only have two ears. If any new artist happens to pop up, then just let me know and I will post a blog asap! So have you heard any new good music that it out now that you think isn't getting heard?
