Dog... I was speaking with a CEO of another company yesterday... and he told me: "drop a $1000 on GENM before Friday (tomorrow) or Monday... and you'll be soooooo glad you did. My buddy owns this company". I'm frantically researching it (cause that CEO is NOT the most trustworthy) Do you have anything to add that would help me in my research? Anything (opinion or fact)you can add is much appreciated. salemm.

During the past several months, GENM has made significant progress towards attaining profitability by contracting and implementing several new clients. The Company is well-positioned in a number of markets, in particular with respect to digital music sales due to its extensive copyright library. According to Forrester Research, if the trend continues, three years from now digital music sales could account for $1.4 billion of the music industry's $12.8 billion in expected revenues. GENM is taking advantage of this trend by establishing itself as a "consolidator of quality music catalogues". The Company has and will continue to acquire and license music catalogues with the goal of becoming the leading provider of downloadable music and finished product sales over the Internet.
GENM will be reporting to its shareholders and those interested in the Company over the next few months the results of its efforts and accomplishments to expand its current line of business and also to diversify its business into event planning and other lucrative markets. Management believes these efforts should enable GENM to reach profitability and significantly strengthen the company's financial position.
Fred Berlin, CEO of GENM, stated, "The Investor Awareness program is designed to document our efforts and the results of those efforts. Our intention is to issue periodic press releases to inform the investing public of our progress."
In order to disseminate its information, GENM has retained the services of a firm with expertise in market awareness of Pink Sheet and OTC Bulletin Board companies.

Salemm, I don't have L2, but from what I have read the Bid/Ask is always huge.
Plus if the float is that low, something could happen here! Now it is a Canadian company, and I don't know how well these CEO's may know each other, so lets hope Andrea isn't training his ways.
This could run up real quick.. Little more DD, I may get in on this one.

Yeah, I have no idea who any of the artists listed are as they are independent.
The good idea that they seem to get ready to pump with is the fact that they are going to be an online music store, selling all labels records:
Grand Entertainment & Music, Inc. (OTC: GENM) announced that it will launch a music e-commerce website. The website will function as an e-music store that offers both proprietary GENM music content as well as music produced by other companies. GENM's goal is to replicate what Amazon.com did for selling books on-line, but exclusively with music.
But the volume does suck. If the illustrious Andrea told you to buy, maybe he knows something, and felt bad for screwing us so many times he was hooking you up!
