2007 Artist Development Workshops Overview
Ask around and you’ll find that the Artist Development Workshops are one of the stellar highlights of our Texas Holy Hip Hop Achievement Awards weekends.
Held the night before the big ceremony, these informative classes are designed to educate the independent gospel MC on a variety of practical business and spiritual matters that pertain to music ministry.
This year is no different. Be sure to join us for the following sessions at Copperfield Church (same location as the awards) on Friday, June 22, 2007.

Making a Name: Independent Artist Promotion
It's all about grindin' but you've got a limited budget and a day job. Where do you get the most bang for your buck? Mixtapes? MySpace? Street teams?
Learn the ins and outs of independent promotion and how the blogosphere can expand your circle of influence.
Lead by:
Matt Sonzala – Houstonsoreal.com blog / promoter for Devin the Dude / host of Damage Control Radio show in Houston (mainstream)
8:30 – 10 pm
Roundtable Discussion:
Hip Hop AS Religion: Have We Made the Music Our God?
Cats these days can quote Tupac lyrics better than the words of Christ and spend more time in the studio than in prayer. MTV and BET are our houses of modern worship. Has the culture consumed us?
This is an important topic to be discussed by all members of the hip hop community – especially those that claim to be doing the music in service of a higher authority.
Join us for a spirited discussion with various viewpoints and ideas.
Moderated by Sketch the Journalist and Tre9
Panel guests include:
The Sugarhill Gang - Old school hip hop legends
Special Ed– Old school hip hop legend ("I Got It Made", "We're On a Mission")
