ATLANTA, GA –(January, 2010)- Celebrity Hip-hop Moms Aliyah Najm (T-Pain's mom), Jacida Carter (Lil' Wayne's mom) and H. Loraine Smith (Ne-Yo's mom) will receive a humanitarian award in music and television at the first annual "Queens in our Communities" celebration on March 7, 2010.  They will be the first to receive this prestigious award.

H.E.R. Hip Hop Showcase presented by H.E.R. Hip Hop, LLC, New Earth Music Hall and Boom Foundry, LLC, April 9th, 2010

H.E.R. Hip Hop Showcase
New Earth Music Hall, Athens, Georgia
April 9th, 7 p.m.-2 a.m.    

          The first-ever H.E.R. Hip-Hop Showcase will take place on April 9th from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m. at New Earth Music Hall in Athens, Georgia (227 W. Dougherty Street, Athens, Georgia). The event is a production of H.E.R. Hip Hop, LLC, New Earth Music Hall, and Boom Foundry, LLC.

          H.E.R. Hip-Hop, LLC is a full-service hip-hop entertainment company formed by three UGA Music Business students, Elizabeth Schenck, Stephen Prevost and Rebekah Baldwin, offering artist promotion, publicity, booking, and music publishing and licensing. Our goal is to promote and develop quality hip-hop within Athens by rendering our services to up-and-coming local artists, as well as established national acts. While Athens is a well-known powerhouse in the music industry, the hip-hop genre has no real presence in the community. H.E.R. Hip-Hop, LLC is the first company that will bring the genre to the forefront of the Athens music scene.

          The H.E.R. Hip-Hop Showcase will take place annually in Athens, Georgia in the spring. Each year's showcase artists will embody, both through their music and image, the ideals that H.E.R. Hip-Hop identifies as being characteristic of genuine hip-hop. This year's showcase will consist of an industry panel, networking mixer, and artist performances. Though this year's showcase will only be one night, subsequent showcases will take place over the course of two nights.

          The panel and mixer are two one-of-a-kind events that precede the artist performances. The panel will begin promptly at 7:30 p.m. Artists will discuss the past, present, and future state of hip-hop as they see it, as well as share in their personal experiences as artists; also speaking on the panel will be various professionals from within the music business industry. The mixer will immediately follow the panel, running from approximately 8:15 to 9 p.m.; during this time, showcase attendees will have the opportunity to meet and mingle with the artists, as well as network with music business professionals. A list of attending music business professionals will be posted on our company website soon.

          The 2010 artist line-up includes national acts Dead Prez, Kidz in the Hall, and WrittenHouse; Atlanta-based artists Donnis and Stanza; and local Athens natives Fresh and WildKard. We believe that this is an exceptional line-up, especially for the first-run of our annual showcase. Excluding Dead Prez, who has graced the stage of the Athens music scene ONCE, and Stanza, who has performed in the small college town twice, this will be the first time the non- Athens-based artists have ever performed in Athens, GA. Furthermore, the 2010 H.E.R Showcase artists are all well-established acts within the hip-hop community who have been included in major music events throughout the year, such as the 2009 Roots Picnic and Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival, Big Day Out 2010, and the upcoming 2010 SXSW Music Festival.

          This year's showcase sponsors include The Recording Academy, Guerilla Minds Social Media Marketing, Whynatte, WhichWich, and Strong Arm Management. Sponsorship packages are still available and can be inquired about the "Become A Sponsor" page on our website listed below.  

     The managing partners of H.E.R. Hip-Hop, LLC will be available for interviews. Interested parties should contact Rebekah Baldwin (rebekah@herhiphop.com) to set up a time.

Show Features

On this fast-paced vinegar stroke of a show we have:

Wu Tang Clan are in the building as Inspectah Deck takes a 60 minute timeout to talk about his new album The Manifesto, dropping March 23rd. We explore the reasons why he is glad to have finally contractually left the Wu Tang Clan,their current plans to make a new Wu studio album as a whole group, the Joe Budden beef, his own imminent retirement after his next album, U God's current battle with schizophrenia and much more. This is as in-depth as any Wu Tang interview will be – don't miss it.

Gold Chain Military is one of the hardest hitting collectives in current hip hop. Their front-man, Planet Asia, joins us on the show for an eventful and amusing insight into West Coast hip hop, his love of British fish n chips, what it means to be a 'conscious' emcee and much more in an interview that was so intense, Planet Asia drops his phone in excitement mid-way through. So brutal.

Little Brother are about to call it a day and focus upon their solo aspirations.Phonte explains to us why this is,in a positive and heart-warming interview, covering a plethora of issues including A Tribe Called Quest's separation, still thinking Kayne West is a coward, Byron Crawford, a reflection upon Little Brother's highs and lows and more. Essential listening.

Mistah FAB is an artists' artist. He is often perceived, by hip hop fans, to be a mainstream rapper who has nothing to offer the 'underground', hardcore hip hop scene. Signed to one of the biggest labels in the world and collaborating weekly with some of the most recognised names in popular music, FAB carefully and eloquently explains to us that artistic integrity and creativity span further than 'keeping it real' for the sake of the internet 'parasites'. In one of our most informative and thought-provoking interviews to date, FAB is sure to win you over and achieve your utmost respect, with his convincing and at time tragic, accounts of life as hip hop's most diverse emcees.

Iron Braydz is one of many British artists that are still successfully translating their artistry into meaningful and worthy hip hop music. His new album 'Devil May Cry' is an essential purchase and his interview with us will be sure to concrete new respect within worldwide hip hop communities. We talk British industry failures, his up and coming collaborative projects and much more in a self-assured feature with one of hip hop's most dependable artists.

AND THAT'S NOT ALL!

Mista Montana and Menace face the humiliating task of addressing their recent 'after-show' recording scandal and a few home truths are revealed. Sparks fly, feelings are hurt forever and the aftermath is reminiscent of the final scene in Joclyn Stone's Oscar-nominated movie, Horny Trailer Park Mothers 2. Some may call it justice.
