HEY NEW ARTISTS—WIN A MYSPACE RECORDS CONTRACT!

Think you have what it takes to win a recording contract with MySpace Records? If so, you need to enter the Rock The Space contest right away!

Sponsored by MySpace, MySpace Records and Toyota Motor Sales, the Rock The Space contest is open to unsigned bands and solo artists. To enter, visit MySpace.com/ToyotaMusic (before July 1) to submit an original song via MP3. All who enter can then create a viral music widget (with an easy embed code) to spread their music across MySpace and the web. Additionally, MySpace users can add the music widgets to their profiles and post comments on the Toyota Music profile.

In July, five finalists will be selected to be featured prominently on the Toyota Music profile. Then, the MySpace community will vote on a winner, who will be announced in September. In addition to the MySpace Records recording contract, the winner will also receive $10,000 worth of musical instruments from Fender and the winner's song will be available for download on the MySpace Music Home Page.

"Rock The Space allows the MySpace Music platform to do what it does best—enable new music and new artists to be discovered," says Jeff Berman, President of Sales and Marketing for MySpace. "MySpace is excited to offer these artists a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and to take part in their journey from the very first step."

For more information, to enter or to hear some of the submissions, visit MySpace.com/ToyotaMusic.
