On behalf of myself and my fellow skyrockiters, I want to welcome you to our freshly minted and
revamped website which complements our re-branding to skyrockit that is being announced to the Press today. We are now proud to call ourselves a Mobile Entertainment Agency.
Since 2001 we have enjoyed our Industry position as a leading mobile content company having had the pleasure of working with some of the world's best media companies to supply content to the top US carriers and having executed exciting mobile content campaigns for leading consumer brands. Now the landscape has evolved, for us mobile is no longer just a handset, it's a lifestyle, we can connect to all our friends and our entertainment and information on the go through a plethora of applications. Delivery pipes can now handle unlimited amounts of rich media, handsets are easy to use, have big screens and are truly multimedia capable and mobile is more and more integrated with other channels like social media and online .Given all these advances we have been rebuilding the company over the last year so that we could successfully help, our existing media clients and our growing stable of new brand clients, take advantage of all the opportunities that this new landscape presents. Brands now have the opportunity to produce their own branded entertainment experiences like we have done with our friends at Zippo and media companies can now act as brand managers as we look to help them exploit their media IP in new and exciting ways.
Although our eye is firmly focused on the future, we at skyrockit remain committed to our core business of delivering the best and freshest
content to our distribution partners. We continue to work with the top carriers

We are also extremely proud and excited to have launched our Romplr Remix platform and app. In the words of the Los Angeles Times: “This is what remix culture is about – letting fans interact, not just listen.” Last year we jumped out of the gates with hip-hop phenom Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em, LMFAO, jeremih and The Alchemist.. We finished the year with the successful launch of the 50 Cent Romplr in partnership with vitaminwater, the app went to number 1 on the music app store in a week! Keep an eye out for new announcements in the coming months as we take Romplr to the next level with a broad catalogue of songs for you to choose from.
