06/05/07 - Master P Promotes Social Responsibility

YounG AleX · 06-05-2007, 10:51 AM

No Limit Records CEO, Master P is leading by example to meet the challenges of the often negative state of Hip-Hop by starting Take a Stand Records, a label that encourages artists to change the paradigms of contemporary Hip-Hop music. According to Master P, the label's objective is to take Hip-Hop to another level, teaching our kids how to mature, make changes, and never sell out.

“Unity is key and knowledge is power, he said. “Come to spread the knowledge to our community. Don't let the dream die."

The Take a Stand Records website offers an online community, scholarship opportunities, various articles and resources, and a featured link for Master P's Katrina relief foundation Team Rescue One. Also important are the company's messages of community building and musical output free of exploitative images and coarse language; while preserving quality of commercially viable Hip-Hop.

As a outgrowth of his efforts to elevate enriching content through Hip-Hop, Master P, in conjunction with Omen Entertainment, Rap Snacks and non-profit music industry youth program, Music Futures, will host the We Got Next Summit at Howard University on Saturday June 30.

We Got Next has planned a music industry conference as a means to enhance attention on Washington, D.C.'s array of talent, and to promote music business knowledge amongst participants. Expected in attendance are a plethora of artists, DJs, concert promoters, industry figures, lawyers and managers.

Invited speakers include Chaka Zulu (DefJam South), Rob Lewis (Christina Aguilera, Babyface, Brian McKnight), J. PRINCE (Rap-A-Lot Records), Mad Linx (BET's Rap City), Chucky Thompson (Bad Boy Records), Rampage (Flipmode Squad), Chris Styles (99.5), Jay Stevenson (95.5), Raheem DeVaughan, Rich Harrison (producer for Beyonce and Amerie,) etc.

The opening session will impress upon artists to take responsibility for the music they agree to perform and the social impacts of their choices. The theme of personal responsibility for one's career carries throughout the conference by teaching guests about music industry practices and how to create a market-ready presence. Additional panel topics range from sampling and other legal issues, producing hit records, and designing cohesive airplay strategies, to building a buzz and reaching major labels. Other activities include an artist showcase, a fashion show, and an arena of vendors and exhibitors, as well as networking opportunities.

Registration is $25, which includes lunch plus full access to the day's activities, and affords the opportunity to apply for a slot in the Artist Showcase.

The We Got Next Summit follows the premier of Master P's televised America’s Next Hip-Hop Stars competition, airing on the STARZ! Network on Friday June 29th, 2007. Judges for the competition include Romeo Miller, Snoop Dogg and Paul Wall (check local listings for air times). For more information about the conference, visit .
