NEW YORK—Fans of Wu-Tang Clan and Mobb Deep will get a sneak peak at the groups’ new upcoming albums through a partnership between Loud Records and mobile entertainment portal Zingy.
The singles “Hey Luv” and “Burn” from Mobb Deep’s upcoming album are available now at Zingy.com, and Wu-Tang’s ring tones for “(Uzi) Pinky Ring,” “Rules” and “Ya’ll Been Warned” will be available before the album’s release on the Zingy site.
“Technology is advancing so fast in this day and age, there’s no better way to get involved than through the wireless networks. Cell phones are so widely used that ringtones are one of the best ways to promote our music,” said Steven Rifkind, chairman of Loud Records.
