Phoenix, Arizona, November 28, 2007  – "No Nation Can Rise Higher Than It’s Women," is a saying that breathes truth.  Queen YoNasDa epitomizes this energy as a hip hop artist, curator, and activist. Without a doubt, there is an imbalance occurring in hip hop where female emcees have been silenced.   Her strong presence is bringing femcees with a message back to the forefront of music as the days of Queen Latifah and Lauryn Hill with a modern twist.  Her musical style encompasses an eclectic mix of wisdom, grooves, catchy hooks, and is sure to reach the masses.

"I’m not here to beat people in the head with a sermon, I’m here to tell the truth," she eludes. This lyrical queen has completed her debut album, "God.Love and Music" featuring Cappadonna, Dr. Ben Chavis Muhammad, Keith Murray, M-Eighty and others with production by Cookin Soul, New York West, CR Productions, K-Boog and others. She speaks and performs across the United States promoting unity, education and respect for all cultures.  With roots reaching back to Native American tradition and the Nation of Islam, where her mother, a Lakota (Sioux) and her father, a hustler and fine artist hailing from Brooklyn, this queen knows the blues all to well, but never let it dampen her spirits.

The two met in 1975 during the time in which her mother worked as a public relations director for Muhammad Ali.  Shortly afterwards the two united in marriage and YoNasDa’s mother, Oglala-Lakota participated in "The Longest Walk," which took place in protest to anti-Indian legislation.  The 3,000-mile trek began at San Francisco Bay’s Alcatraz Island and culminated on White House grounds.  YoNasDa was conceived there in Washington, D.C, April 1978.  She was one of only two children born during this historic journey, which was a place that would later become for her a Mecca of sorts. 

Due to her father’s hustling, it led to his imprisonment along with an aiding and abetting charge for her mother, who served time in a Fort Worth, Texas, prison.   During this time Minister Louis Farrakhan stepped in, moved YoNasDa and her brother to Chicago, adopting them into his family. "Without Minister Farrakhan or grandpa as I call him and the whole Farrakhan family, my brother and I would’ve been caught up in the foster care system. I can’t even imagine the woman I would have been if it wasn’t for the Farrakhan family.  God is beautiful in his design," she reflects so candidly.

As a young child YoNasDa stood by her mother and grandfather’s side speaking to the hip hop nation.  She remembered when he uttered "one of a rapper’s songs is equivalent to five of his speeches."  As an emcee, YoNasDa is living proof.  She takes her responsibility seriously by using her music as a mouth piece to educate and uplift young people.  As a mother, she sees what music can do and understands the power of the spoken word.  YoNasDa has a mission and is going full throttle.  She is the national director for the Indigenous Nations Alliance.  This truth-teller is a published writer who has a weekly column in the Final Call Newspaper and is now bringing her artistry to the world.  To YoNasDa, "Queen" is not just a word, it is her calling and she’s rising to the occasion.

Album will highlight upcoming artists along with Talib Kweli, Ghostface, Raekwon, Young Buck, Little Brother and more

New York, NY Tuesday November 27th 2007

Revered by the Hip-Hop industry and music lovers throughout the world, Hi-Tek the production mastermind responsible for hits from the likes of 50 Cent, Common, Snoop Dogg, Lloyd Banks and more is poised to unveil another classic with December 11th’s Hi-Teknology 3 on Babygrande Records.

It’s only been a year since Hi-Teknology 2 garnered universal critical raves, having been dubbed one of 2006′s beast releases; but its creator thinks Vol. 3 could raise the bar even further. "My intent is always to give my fans good music first and foremost. I do think this is one of the best albums I ever did," says the Cincinnati based producer who helped shape the mid-nineties Hip-Hop landscape through his work with Talib Kweli and Mos Def. "I always want to improve," Hi-Tek stresses. "In my mind, if I like what I am working on and I think it is better, that’s what counts, but if the fans like it, then that is what makes it perfect."

Babygrande, which boasts an extensive roster of today’s most promising independent talent, are no less enthused in their sentiments.  "Hi-Teknology 3 is a reflection of Hi-Tek’s continual relevance and growth as an artist/producer and once again he demonstrates why he is one of the most well rounded and highly regarded talents in the game" explains Jesse Stone, VP/GM.

Hi-Tek is never one to disappoint with his choice of collaborators and Hi-Teknology 3 is a further testament to this fact. On this album he calls on artists from all corners of the country, Talib Kweli, Ghostface, Raekwon (of the Wu-Tang Clan), to Kurupt, Young Buck, Outlawz and Little Brother and more.

Hi-Teknology 3 however, specifically reflects Tek’s desire to shine the light on burgeoning wordsmiths. Having always strived to encourage and maintain a balance between established and developing talent, it is with this album that Hi-Tek most explicitly welcomes a new generation of hand selected artists worthy of his sonic stamp.

"I wanted to go back to the original blueprint of working with up and coming artists,"he states, when quizzed on the motivation behind appearances from the likes of Estelle, Riz, Dion, Push! Montana and many more.

Hi-Tek has also made some changes to his supporting cast, having linked with one of Hip-Hop’s most illustrious managers, Sha Money XL, Tek was signed to his Money Management Group and D Prosper Music without any hesitation. "I have been a fan of Tek’s music for a long time; his sound is one of a kind. When I heard he wasn’t happy with his former manager I stepped in to help catapult him to the forefront, helping him form the brand that he is. Hi-Tek belongs up there with the best of them and with his new album, placements on some major name projects, including Dr. Dre’s, his peak has yet to come. But it is on its way," affirmed Sha Money XL

Just as he molded the sound of mid-nineties Hip-Hop, Tek introduces the next generation of Hip-Hop talent with Hi-Teknology 3. With a slew of multi-platinum production credits to his name, the support of one of the biggest Hip-Hop labels and an aggressive and established marketing team in his corner, Hi-Tek looks to be hitting his stride.

Kay Jackson is a mainstay of the Houston underground scene who has worked with Ali Shaheed Muhammad, A Tribe Called Quest, Oh No, and SA-RA. The concept behind TIME:LINE is the cycle of life. Lyrically and musically the album evolves from birth to death to rebirth over the course of 12 tracks.

Florida-Based Rapper Soars Into Top 10 on Hot 100; Debut Album, "MAIL ON SUNDAY," Expected February 2008

NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwire – November 29, 2007) – Poe Boy Entertainment/Atlantic recording artist Flo Rida has scored big again this week at iTunes. The Florida-based rapper debuted at #1 three weeks ago with his single, "Low (Feat. T-Pain)," selling over 120,000 digital downloads in just its first week available. "Low" has remained the #1 single at iTunes now for three consecutive weeks. The track has soared into the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart as well, landing at #4, and comes in at #2 on the SoundScan Digital Song chart for its second week in a row. Flo Rida also leaps into the top 5 on the Billboard "Hot RingMasters" chart, with the ringtone for "Low" ranking at #3 this week.

Flo Rida is quickly marking himself as one of the hottest new voices in hip-hop. The Carol City, FL native has announced plans to release his major label debut album, "MAIL ON SUNDAY," in February of 2008. The album sees Flo Rida joined not only by T-Pain but other major-league guests including Rick Ross and Trey Songz, with production from an incredible line-up including The Runners, JR Rotem, and Atlanta’s DJ Montay, who produced "Low."

At Rhythmic radio, "Low" is currently locked inside the Top 5 and was the #1 greatest gainer for the third consecutive week. Its one-week increase was up 806 spins, one of the largest spin gains of 2007. At Top 40 radio, "Low" has had yet another mammoth week, jumping to #23 with a bullet. The track is currently in full-time rotation at both Pop and Rhythmic formats in every major market in the country, and countless stations are reporting that "Low" is their #1 most-requested song.

The new companion video for "Low" is blowing up at MTV, where it has already been added to rotation at MTV, MTV2, MTV Hits, and MTV Jams, as well as at BET. Last week, MTV’s "TRL" and BET’s "106 & Park" premiered the video, in addition to other recent premieres on MTV2′s "Sucker Free" and BET’s "Rap City."

On MySpace, Flo Rida comes in at #3 on the Top Indie Artists ranking and at YouTube, his channel has received more than one million views to date.

In other news, "Low" will be prominently featured in the upcoming motion picture "Step Up 2 The Streets," which hits theatres February 14th, as well as in its accompanying soundtrack, which will also be released by Atlantic Records.

Flo Rida can currently be heard on Poe Boy labelmate Rick Ross’ new single, "Street Money." Both rappers just shot the song’s music video in Miami. Flo Rida was also recently featured on fellow-Floridian DJ Khaled’s current album, "We The Best," on the track "B***h I’m From Dade County." In addition, Flo Rida’s "Radio" will appear on EA Game’s NFL Tour 2008, which hits stores in January.

Elite Group of Entertainment Executives and Consumer Marketers to Converge in Toronto to Focus on Connecting with Tweens, Teens & Gen Y!
This is the first generation to grow up immersed in networked digital media, which represents both a significant change and challenge for marketers

Los Angeles, CA (Billboard Publicity Wire) November 29, 2007 — Digital Media Wire, the leading digital entertainment publisher and events company, and Rogers MusicStore CANADIAN MUSIC WEEK, Canada’s leading annual entertainment event dedicated to the expression and growth of the country’s music, media and entertainment industries, today announced a partnership to host Millennials Toronto, a youth-focused media conference at the Fairmont Royal York in Toronto on Wednesday, March 5, 2008.

"Rogers MusicStore CANADIAN MUSIC WEEK is one of the most respected music and media events in the world. Having established Digital Media Wire as a leading brand and becoming a trusted authority in the U.S. among entertainment, media and technology executives, we are continually looking for opportunities to grow both in the U. S. as well as internationally. Millennials Toronto is our first event abroad and the fact that CMW has chosen to partner with DMW is yet another example of our growing network of premier industry partners," said Ned Sherman, CEO and publisher, Digital Media Wire.

The one-day event brings together leading entertainment, media and technology executives and consumer marketers to focus on how to connect with the much sought after Millennial Generation (those born between 1978 and 2000), which will outnumber both Baby Boomers and Gen-Xers by 2010 to become the most significant consumer sector for the media and entertainment industries.

The conference tackles the most important questions facing content creators and consumer marketers today: How do content owners and marketers reach this highly elusive demographic of consumers? Which brands get it and which don’t? How are Millennials spending their time off and online, in social communities and with their mobile devices? How can understanding how Millennials interact with and value music, games, video, marketing messages and self expression help to shape new business strategies for entertainment businesses? How to design products and services that will enhance and empower the lifestyle of Millennials and build brand loyalty? How do you monetize new viral economies like MySpace, Facebook, Second Life & YouTube? What new business models are emerging for user-generated content, games and other interactive forms of entertainment?

"This is the first generation to grow up immersed in networked digital media, which represents both a significant change and challenge for marketers," said Neill Dixon, Rogers MusicStore CANADIAN MUSIC WEEK President. "We are very pleased to be producing this conference in conjunction with Digital Media Wire to address a need in the marketplace for direction on how to connect with the consumer mindset of this generation."

Decision-makers from record labels, television studios, technology companies, wireless companies, gaming companies, advertising firms, attorneys, marketing companies, research companies and payment companies are participating in the event.

As an exclusive benefit to conference participants, attendees will receive the second edition of Millennials & The Digital Entertainment Age: A Sourcebook for Consumer Marketers with a series of insightful articles providing practical information, case studies and strategic advice for consumer marketers focused on this generation.

Fight Klub Opens New State-Of-The-Art Recording Studios

Launches "FK Anthem" Contest featuring track produced by DJ Green Lantern

New York, NY (November 27, 2007) – The Monday Night Fight Klub, hip hop’s most revered underground battle competition, is gearing up for a new season. The Monday Night Fight Klub’s creators and host International P are currently looking to find the hottest up & coming emcees to participate in their world famous battles. Ambitious hip hop emcees around the country looking to catch a break can upload their videos and mp3s at www.thefightklub.com or via the customized YouTube link at www.youtube.com/fktour2007 to enter the "60 Second Assassin" contest for a chance to become one of the contestants at a Monday Night Fight Klub battle event in New York City. Each battle competition will be taped for television to air at a later time.

For those aspiring hip hop emcees who are not "battle rappers" but have incredible lyrical flow and songwriting skills, Monday Night Fight Klub has recently launched the "FK Anthem" contest in partnership with Music Nation. After the success of Season 1, the Monday Night Fight Klub principals have decided to create another "FK Anthem" as the official opening and closing song for Season 2 of Fight Klub. Through Music Nation, an artist development company and online music community, users will be linked directly to contest page via www.thefightklub.com where they will be able to download an original track produced by the famed DJ Green Lantern, create a song and then upload the finished MP3 for contest submission. The public, Executive Nick of Monday Night Fight Klub, and DJ Green Lantern will judge entries each week, with the winner being announced in mid-December.  The winning artist will not only have their song as the official FK Anthem for all of Season 2, but also receive a signature mixtape created by DJ Green Lantern himself.

Monday Night Fight Klub’s bi-weekly events have become so popular that it’s widely known as a training ground and A&R showcase for aspiring rappers looking for a break in the music industry. The Monday Night Fight Klub garnered mass attention releasing a Volume 1 DVD in 2005 and a show on MTV2, which aired the first season of the battle competitions. Monday Night Fight Klub has also received praise from artists, labels and executives in the music industry including Jay-Z, Russell Simmons, Kevin Liles, Swizz Beatz, Young Jeezy and Juelz Santana, among many others. In fact, artists such as Remy Ma, Jin, 40 Cal and Serious Jones have gone through Monday Night Fight Klub to showcase their lyrical talents before they landed recording contracts.

Monday Night Fight Klub has also just opened their new full service, state of the art recording studios. The new 5,000 square foot facility is located in the heart of Manhattan and is equipped with two recording rooms, and a spacious lounge on site. The studio A features an SSL 4000 G+ and studio B is equipped with a Pro control 24 mixing board, SSL EQ and compressor, and Digidesign Hd3 Accel Protools System for tracking, editing, mixing and mastering on site.

ABOUT MONDAY NIGHT FIGHT KLUB

In 2004, The Monday Night Fight Klub started as a sole purpose of reviving the roots of authentic Hip-Hop music while discovering the hottest MCs regionally and worldwide by giving rising Hip Hop artists a credible platform to prove their lyrical skills. Since then The Monday Night Fight Klub has exploded onto the music scene and has become one of the most important grass roots Hip Hop movements to arise from the rap game in over a decade. As a result, these battles have been witnessed, judged and highly publicized by the biggest names in the Hip Hop world. The bi-weekly event is hosted by International P and is the only event that provides and equal opportunity for both signed and unsigned artists to create a music industry and street buzz without spending enormous amounts of marketing dollars.
