Kina Grannis, “Gotta Digg” Update

Kina Grannis is the Social Media Superstar of the month!

According to Snarfd, Kina Grannis popular song “Gotta Digg“, which I wrote about earlier this week has exploded on Digg and all around the blogosphere, has landed Grannis major attention in the music industry.

She recently appeared on The Drill Down, a show frequented by top Diggers and social media enthusiasts, where she spoke about the success of her video on Digg landing her management deals.

Her blog, (born Dec 15th, 2007!) was originally created to enter her in the Super Bowl Contest, is Two Weeks For Kina. Kina’s You Tube (born on November 14, 2007) video has acquired her Social Media success!

Gotta Digg

I was doing my usual morning rounds on the Social News Sites and went voting for things (a practice that I am trying to get down to 1-2 hours tops!) and came across something I thought I would support.

Having been in a band, and being a girl… I know how hard it is to be taken seriously in the music business. I also know how hard it is to try and score a recording contract….Really hard.

So I saw this girl, Kina, who entered a contest to win a shot at having her shot at the music industry during the Superbowl. Using tons of social media, the Myspace contest is pretty big and Kina is using her Social Media skills and her Blog to get the votes. Since I loved her angle, I felt the need to support!

Because I need to know everything about everything, I noticed that this Crash The Superbowl contest (which is obviously a way to spike the viewer-ship of the Superbowl amongst a younger age group)…. is sponsored by Yahoo & Doritos but most popular on Youtube… (Google wins again!)
