Monday, April 11, 2011

This is in celebration for its second anniversary
that will be held on Friday, April 15 that
The Craneway Pavilion located at 1414 Harbor Way South, Richmond, CA.
Doors open at 7 p.m. and show kicks off at 8 p.m.

1 Stop Hip-Hop Shop a platform for members of the hip-hop community to
showcase their talents. Since 2009, owner Brandy Varnado has done a
great job of helping independent artists and business owners gain
exposure and has become nationally recognized as a brand despite being
based out of her small hometown of Richmond, CA.

This party with a purpose will come alive which will showcase a
collage of music from Bay Area’s Nio Tha Gift, Deja Bryson, Evenodds,
DB, Prank of The Deligentz, Jack Tradez, Phia Lamour and Young Rebz to
Dremur (representing NYC), Ricko AK (representing Alabama), and Emcee
Jermaine (representing New Jersey). The event will also showcase the
talent of three fashion designers including BekaGage who is also from
Richmond, CA.

All proceeds from this event will go to Bay Area’s non-profit
organization Discover America Foundation. For two years founder Brandy
Varnado has encouraged her staff to volunteer as mentor and tutors
with the organization. The focus of the 30 year old foundation is to
take the inner city youth out of their element and expose them to
culture and arts that rarely reaches their community. Over the years,
the program has taken over 500 children to other states, college and
university campuses and other museums just to name a few.
