2007

We made it. Hip Hop gets another shot to step up to the plate and continue to grow in the revolutionary fashion that has had it featured in General Motors commercials to selling Vitamin Water. We have taken the blueprint of the sound of struggle music to become an industry that transcends music and is a lifestyle in every sense of the word. The music business is under assault and we have to look to expand our business in a smarter way as the digital era not only brings growth but brings a trend that has made children,adults,everyone look for music and not have to pay for it. Obviously this format will not work but we have to make the music experience even more potent so that everyone will pay the artists and companies that bring this form of entertainment to the world. Look for more "Brand" entertainment to take place and understand that the world is no longer your block but truly a world wide digital experience.

We saw greatness past away in the last part of 2006 with the loss of "Gerald Levert" and also one of the founding fathers of hip hop even though we don't always acknowledge him "James Brown". James played to his own drum and then allowed hip hop to borrow it!! Lets continue to make a funky drummer out of the new records and sounds inspired by his greatness. I look foward to making new trails and the impossible possible for our culture. See you in the 007!!!
