Maybe its full but just wanted you to know because I get a feeling you are very sincere in your efforts to help up and coming producers and songwriters. And if people keep getting emails returned it may seem other wise. I know you guys got your hands full with alot of stuff, but I thought you would want to know. Thanks and let me know when that's cleared up so I can send you some material. Thanks Soul The African Cat wit The Hat!
