A quick message from the Head Writer @ UP

Hey thanks for coming by to my music blog! Before jumping into the submission process I would like to start off by saying that your music is valuable and I encourage you to keep writing no matter what happens after you submit your music to UNSEEN PLAYS. I am pretty selective in the music I choose to share but I take the time to listen to every submission with love. Please make sure to read the submission guidelines below for best outcomes.

Wishing you the best, Rebel.
