to make a quick buck off you then write you off. We keep a family vibe going on here. Just like our music and some of our
artists, we like to be different and unique.

Q: Brandon seems to help a lot!
A:
It's true. Brandon love helping out other artists anyway he can. He always mention that he would "rather be remembered
and broke than to be rich & forgotten." I think in the end, Brandon will always be remembered.
Q: I noticed in the Blog announcements that you are no longer taking rap artists until
further notice. Why is that?
A: Eye Of The Storm Records in past months have been through a lot of
crap when it comes down rap. We worked with many other companies and people and things just didn't go right. So Brandon chose
not to accept any rappers until further notice. He'll take Hip Hop artists, but not Rap. The only real "gutter" rappers under
the label are Isis Cane & The Wackos. M.I.C is more Hip Hop.

We wish not to say. Because if we mention them, people will know about them and we just don't help out people who are shaddy.

and was on Public Access. We only wish BET uncut was out then.
Q: Who is Keena? we see her profile and pic but we really don't know about her?
A: Click her name and when her profile comes up, there's another link that will tell you about her.
Q: I noticed on Isis Cane picture that it said president?
A:
That is correct, Isis Cane is the president of the company. She showed dedication, loyalty and earned that position.
Q: you have an artist as your president? That seems strange?
A:
Not really, Isis Cane is really smart and knows about this business. Don't let the rapping fool you.
Q: How is it that your label deal with so many styles of music, yet you're an indie
label?
A: That's because Brandon is open minded with music and don't stick with one style. He looks
at the bigger picture.
Q: How come your website is not flash like all the other label websites?
A: That's because we want to keep it simple. Everyone don't have optimized computers, so
therefore we make it easier for people to access the site.
Q: We use to see so many artists on your page, What happened?
A:
It's called dead weight. We have to release artists so we can move forward. If artists don't keep in touch with us or at least
let us know if they need to leave for a while, we'll assume you're AWOL and poof, you're gone! We do keep the door open and
if there's a good reason why we could not get in touch with you or you could not get in touch with us, we won't release you.
