(Black PR Wire) INDIANAPOLIS, IN — Summer is almost here, and it is time to celebrate. Nationally known Promoter #DJGGGENO plans to observe some of the landmark events in June by formally acknowledging “Black Music Month” along with “Juneteenth” by paying homage to Hip-Hop, all during Father’s Day Weekend. Shelton has planned a mega concert featuring some of the music industry’s most recognizable names in Hip-Hop Sunday, June 18, at Indiana Farmers Coliseum, 1202 East 38th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46205. This “Hip Hop 50th Anniversary Concert” will unapologetically highlight the music that began in the streets of New York and single-handedly shifted a culture, crossing music genres and impacting fashion, television, movies, and comedy. The concert will also showcase the elements that make up the Hip-Hop industry, including breakdancing, rhyming, beatboxing, and MCs hyping the crowd, forcing them to move with the melodic sounds or the syncopated beats of the streets. The scheduled lineup of iconic artists includes RAKIM, MC Lyte, Kool Moe Dee, Big Daddy Kane, Sugar Hill Gang, Monie Love, Rob Base, EPMD, and Kwame. This group of internationally-known hip-hop storytellers and lyricists will individually set the stage on fire so attendees can expect electrifying performances that will keep them on their feet no matter what age, race, or religion. Special recognition will also be given to Indiana music artists who help shape the local hip-hop community.
MECAP Music, in association with @DJGGGENO, will host a music conference to kick off the weekend Saturday, June 17, from 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm at Harper’s - Bar & Grill, 4202 West 56th Street, Indianapolis, IN, 46254. This 1-day music conference titled “Is the Music Industry Saturated” will be hosted by Multi-Platinum Grammy/Billboard Winner/Soul Music Hall of Famer Uncle Jamz. This interactive seminar will examine the entertainment industry from a music perspective. Panelists will give “Fireside Chats,” offering attendees the tools to navigate the entertainment industry. Topics will include tips on merchandising, branding, proper mixing/mastering of music, promotions/marketing, social media, public relations, live shows, and knowing the business side of the music industry. Grammy Winners (and Nominees), Stellar Award Nominees, Billboard Charting Producers, Platinum Selling Musicians, Multi-Award Beat-Makers, Writers, and more are confirmed panelists.
