With such a competitive music industry artists are always looking for new and cool ways to promote their music and tours. In Bollywood we have seen stars go out and sell tickets to their movies, but in the Bhangra and Urban Desi scene we've seen so much more.

So far we have seen artists tapping into the social networking sites by creating accounts and fan pages so they can update their fans on all their upcoming events and music releases. Sunny Brown offered a free download for his single to anyone who posted a promotional poster up as their profile picture. D-Boy offered a free autographed copy of his album for all his fans that got 5 people to join his fan page.  Now it seems that the latest tactic has become a trend: customized t-shirts.

The Bilz and Kashif have been working hard to promote the One Voice campaign. To take it a step further from the music, they teamed up with designers and created a series of t-shirts. Their shirts are black, red, and white and available to both men and women.

JoSH had created a t-shirt as well. Their shirt has 'JoSH Naal Pao Bhangra' written across the front in reference to their fun bhangra track "JoSH Naal Pao Bhangra'.

Swami's shirts are available in black as well as blue. The shirts all say 'Desi Rock' in a funky font.

Metz 'N' Trix are promoting their album 'Get Ready Get Set 2' and they have created 3 unique shirts all for their female fans to purchase. One shirt is white and has 'Get Your Drinks Up' written in blue. Another white shirt has 'Come Home With Me' in hot pink. Up is the 3rd shirt and the only black one in this collection.

Tigerstyle has a very extensive line with 12 different tees. Some have 'Tigerstyle' written on the front, others have 'Kanwar Tigerstyle Son of a Sardar' written on them. The shirts come in Orange, pink, blue, black, and white, something to appeal to everyone.

Let us know what your favorite shirt is and what you think about being a walking billboard.
