Grammy Amplifier Wants to Boost Social Reach of Undiscovered Artists

Ahead of the 55th Grammy Awards, the Recording Academy is giving undiscovered musicians a way to potentially put their music in front of more people online.

Grammy Amplifier, part of the academy's #TheWorldIsListening social media blitz, lets artists upload songs via Soundcloud for the opportunity to have their music amplified by select celebrities on Twitter such as Kelly Clarkson, Linkin Park, RZA and Ozzy Osbourne.

The website allows music lovers to listen to the music and share songs with their friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter. The more plays and shares a song gets, the better chance it has at having the celebrity artists see them.

The Grammys will air on Feb. 10 with LL Cool J as the host.
