WHO: The House of Courvoisier BET Awards Week After Party
Hosted by Jermaine Dupri
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION:
The BET Awards ceremony week honors the achievements of African
American entertainers and Courvoisier will salute Jermaine Dupri, the "Self Made Man" — an individual who has established himself though hard work and outstanding achievements in the entertainment and business fields. Jermaine "J. D." Dupri’s 20 + year career has established him as one of the most creative and influential figures in the music business. As founder and CEO of So So Def Recordings, this Grammy Award-winning producer and songwriter, Dupri has launched and catapulted the careers of some of the most popular recording artists of our time including Bow Wow, Da Brat and Jagged Edge.
He has been the driving force behind dozens of gold, platinum and multi-platinum albums for numerous artists such as Usher and Mariah Carey and is a platinum-selling artist himself. JD is also one of only a few producers in music history to garner four songs in the Top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart at one time and the top three spots on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart at one time. The youngest person to ever be inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame, Dupri is also president of Island Records Urban Music, a new division of the Island Def Jam Music Group and among the top ten wealthiest entertainers in hip-hop.
Courvoisier is one of the four leading cognac houses in the world and continues to excel in the spirits category with its renowned blends including VS, VSOP, Napoleon, X.O., Initial Extra, Millennium and Courvoisier Succession J.S. L’Esprit de Courvoisier is the world’s most-exclusive cognac, containing a masterful blend of vintages, including some dating back to the nineteenth century — the same used to apply to the court of Napoleon and Edward VII. Courvoisier reminds consumers to "drink smart(R)." For more information about Courvoisier cognac and corporate responsibility, visit http://www.courvoisier.com/ and http://www.drinksmart.com/.
