During the awards presentation there was special appearances from Stone an Neo Soul artist, Critical Kondition, Stix, Jluve and Christal Ray. • • Az Yet performed songs off their new CD The Return, which included their Hard To Say I'm Sorry. Their advice to anyone entering the music business is to attend music seminars and hone your craft; "Another way to market your music states Daryl is to have an infomercial produced for cable TV. Take your commercial and sign with a Fulfillment house. The Fulfillment house takes the 800 calls and mails out your product." What Daryl was talking about made artists like Slim Whitman and Pete Lemonjello. In fact a lot of your Old School groups who can't get record contracts market their CDs on television. This is a sure way to build a track record proving the salability of recording artists. After all, the record company isn't going to sign anyone for the most part unless they have a track record. • • The 2005 Las Vegas Music Awards also presented Kool and The Gang The Legends Award which was received by Amire Bayan who also received Record Breaker Award.
