2008 Hip Hop Leaders World Peace Conference brings at-risk youth, the community, celebrities, and musicians together for a common cause.

On Saturday, August 16th 1600 Avenue Inc., a 501C3 organization, and its flagship program Hip Hop Leaders (HHL) brought at-risk youth, the community, political figures, and an impressive number of celebrities, musicians, actors, and other influencers together in the name of unity, education, and a safer future for the youth.



The homie Omer at UniverSOUL chimed me into this event a week or so ago, and I wish I wouldn't have been locked up in Miami (occupied, not incarcerated). It's always rewarding to see the industry give back, be it through charity, mentoring, or what have you. At its foundation, it's supporting the youth, and it's giving back to the community.

Head on over to UniverSOUL for the full recap.
