Media Fusion Panel & Elegant Hoodness Showcase – 11/22 & 11/29

Birthplace Magazine has been invited to appear at the 11/22 Media Fusion discussion panel, hosted by A.D. The General, as a part of the Elegant Hoodness Musical Program. A.D.’s organization has been hosting events, working with artists, and helping “artists create a buzz” since 2004, and is a mainstay of the New York hip-hop universe, as well as operating in other areas of the country.

We are happy to be affiliated with the Elegant Hoodness Musical Program, as the organization continues to showcase some of the best NY-area artists on the rise. Expect to see us cover these events and talented individuals on an ongoing basis.

In the meantime, the upcoming Media Fusion panel discussion and artist showcase, as well as the Elegant Hoodness monthly showcase/competition are great places to catch some of the area’s best new, and established talent. Artists can perform, media can attend, and fans of music are welcome. Below are the details, as provided by the program:

Media Fusion is a networking function where we showcase the media instead of the artists. It is a place were artists, consumers, advertisers and the general public can meet the face of today and tomorrow’s media leaders.

We will showcase several media corporations. We ask of all media interested in showcasing their work to have an epk and/or trailer for the event (max 5-8 min presentation) as well as any promotional giveaways. We will have a Q & A portion, allowing the host and the audience to inquire about the particular services the media source provides for the unsigned, independent, signed artist as well as the advertiser. We will then invite the media personally to join the audience and network.
