LONDON, March 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Musicians and bands love being featured on rising artists lists. Show4me Music Interaction Network is a place for musicians and music pros to build the full cycle of their music business and has now put together a composite image of a rising artist to help musicians set goals on their journey to the status of a rising artist.

The network contacted over a hundred music industry journalists from editors and contributors to top music publications (Rolling Stone, Billboard, NPR, Pitchfork, Music Week, Revolt, American Songwriter, and more) to freelance music writers to ask their opinions on what constitutes a rising artist in music for them personally and what criteria does a musician/band have to meet to be deemed 'rising'.
The network heard back from over a dozen of journalists and has released the comments provided by 11 music journalists, including opinions from Billboard Editor Steve Knopper, Billboard's Senior Director of Live Music Dave Brooks, and Senior Writer at Rolling Stone Kory Grow.
Other journalists featured in the piece include Billboard correspondent Karen Bliss, author of God Save The Queens: The Essential History of Women In Hip-Hop Kathy Iandoli, longtime contributor to American Songwriter Rick Moore, Premier Guitar contributor Paul Kobylensky, writer with bylines at American Songwriter, AdHoc and Hopscotch Matt Wallock, music journalist with bylines at American Songwriter and Music Connection Macie Bennett, music journalist with bylines at Revolt KC Orcutt, writer/reporter with bylines at The New York Times, Billboard, and Rolling Stone Nicole Pajer.
