Yes all products have iTunes links, De-U Records, Inc. distributes & manufactures ALL our products ourselves through street sales, flea market, store sales, school sales, internet, & phone sales. We've had stores/kiosks in malls such as White Flint, St. Charles Mall, PG Plaza, Forestville Mall, etc. before where we trained & managed new employees to sell our products. At one point we had a distribution deal through "Border Books" for my group "The F.A.M." on our debut LP "Rookie of the Year", as well as a deal with FYE for our "Multiplication Hip-Hop" CD, but I'm not sure if those two accounts are still active.
