Speaking on the launch, CEO and Founder of EVEN, Mag Rodriguez had this to share:
"I set out to build EVEN to fill a need for both artists and fans. Artists want to own the relationship with their fans and fans want direct proximity to their favorite artist. EVEN is designed to grow the music industry's pie. With EVEN, artists have the opportunity to sell their music first, directly to their fans before its wide release on streaming platforms. It's not EVEN OR streaming platforms, it's EVEN AND streaming platforms. With this launch, EVEN continues to fulfill this proposition. I couldn't be prouder of our team and all of our artist, label and distributor partners." — Mag Rodriguez
