I have written about this before and that it still happens just amazes me. The fact that this happens with artists who have successful careers and have been in the industry for many years and most likely even has a few people on their team helping them is just beyond belief.<\/p>\n

If you release music, for free or pay, and you do not add all the proper meta data to the audio file you should be slapped. You deserve to be called out. I recently download a brand new single from Dee Snider, lead singer of Twisted Sister, and when I imported it into my iTunes I couldn\u2019t believe what I saw.<\/p>\n

\"Dee<\/p>\n

Absolutely no meta data! No artist name. No album name. No genre. No year. No artwork. All that was included was the song name and even that was a mess.<\/p>\n

Dee Snider did you even bother to look at your own mp3 file? Did your manager? Did your assistant? Did anyone? The answer has to be no otherwise you wouldn\u2019t have released a song like this. Apparently nobody cared. It takes all of one minute to update this information. Dee you look like a complete amateur by doing this. If you weren\u2019t responsible for creating this file then you should fire who ever was responsible. You are a professional, present yourself like one.<\/p>\n

People listen up!!! Download and import your own music. See what it looks like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
