Dunn Deal PR promotes hip-hop artists online. We create short- and long-term campaigns that deliver your videos, singles, albums and brand to listeners, editors, bloggers, Youtube channel curators, Spotify playlist curators, writers and DJs, resulting in streams, views, interviews, radio play, posts, and followers. Based in Los Angeles, we’re creating a database of everybody in the world who cares about hip-hop music and culture. We learn what they each like. What they don’t. Where they live. What they want. We sharpen your social media presence across all major platforms and find your audience. Then we expose your music to the right people.
