    MusicNation.com - YouTube for Unreleased Artists

    MusicNation.com is a site which you can watch videos of new and unsigned talent.

    It is like YouTube for music videos with a hint of social networking as well. The site is putting on a contest within the pop, urban and rock categories, where visitors of the site get to choose who wins, American Idol style and the winners will all receive recording contracts with Epic Records and be on the show Stripped. The site is well laid out and easy to browse by category, which is impossible on YouTube. Many up and coming artists will frequent this site to see what is new and how many votes they receive.
