NEW YORK, March 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Hip Hop pioneers to hit the road around the United States on a national "Promotional & Marketing" campaign called the "Hip Hop Hall of Fame History Tour!" The tour will feature rap pioneers engaging in dialogue with students and community groups around the country in over 10 urban cities, with the real "History of Hip Hop Story", and messages about the importance of an education, and living with purpose; while showcasing real "Hip Hop Museum Artifacts."

We recognize it is important that the Hip Hop Hall of Fame Museum & Entertainment Complex, being unveiled in Manhattan, be an intricate part of the greater urban communities we serve, not only in America, but around the World! HHHOF executives are reaching out to community, business, educational, and political leaders for local events in their areas, in association with our partner members of the "NNPA" Urban Newspaper Groups.

The HHHOF Museum Foundation vows to take the lead in cultivating a new respect, appreciation, and preservation of Hip Hop Music & Culture. We also will take the lead in other areas including the family, education, jobs, job creation, small business development, and professional career development in both corporate America, and in Entertainment Industry Companies. The very "People and Communities" we serve will no doubt be the Hip Hop Hall of Fame Museum's best customers, visitors, and contributors to Hip Hop Music & Culture and our Urban Cities for many years to come, according to Creator, and Television Executive Producer, J.T. "J-Train" Thompson.

Fans and artists alike can follow the tour on the official social-networking website 'HipHopHoF.TV' after April 6, 2010, or at Twitter.com/hiphophof, Myspace.com/hiphophof, and Facebook.com/hiphophofmuseumcomplex. Highlights will be featured at our own 'Hip Hop Hall of Fame Report Magazine', and at the 'Hip Hop TV Network Channel(s)', both set to debut with the launch of the HipHopHoF.TV web-site.

The tour schedule is being completed this month, with the final dates being released in May 2010 for the kick-off. We are in talks with marketers to co-brand the tour and subsequent artifacts on display. The "History of Hip Hop" Museum "Meet and Greet" Tour will become an annual event that will be expanded in the year 2011 to include a concert series! The tour management will be headed up by Easy AD Harris, the Hip Hop Icon of the legendary Cold Crush Brothers, a Senior Executive at the HHHOF Museum Foundation.

ABOUT THE OFFICIAL HIP HOP HALL OF FAME AND PRODUCER J.T. THOMPSON

Originally created in 1992, the awards show was the first independently produced Hip Hop Awards Show on the BET Network Syndication arm in 1995 and was Label mates with the Source Awards. The Creator, J.T. "J-Train" Thompson, is a Brooklyn Born, Queens, and Harlem raised Hip Hop Connoisseur, whose Uncle played with Harlem Legends Billie Holliday, Louis Armstrong, and Benny Goodman, and others, who could not eat, dwell, or live in the places where they performed. J.T. was transplanted to Los Angeles in his early years where he entered the business as a concert promoter and television producer as a guest of former MCA/Universal artists Pebbles, and the R&B Group the Deele, that featured multi-Grammy Award winning artists/producers BabyFace, and current Island-Def Jam Head L.A. Ried. While a free agent professional athlete and businessman, Legends Eazy E, Ice Cube, Yo Yo and Publicist Lynn Jeter, gave J.T. his big break in promotions and productions, as he went on to emerge as a major force in the "Hip Hop Fight the Power Leadership" era of the early 90's, even joining with Sister Souljah. As one of the main Co-Founders of the historical L.A. Gang Truce Alliance, during the 1992 Riots, J.T., took the lead in empowering community, private, and public economic development partnerships, and helped push for the National Empowerment Zones from Los Angeles, to the new Harlem USA projects. His story was highlighted in the movie Redemption starring Oscar winner Jamie Foxx, as J.T. utilized gang members on projects including restoring the Sear's Hollywood Store. Despite the HHHOF and J.T. producing numerous albums, movies, concerts, step shows, and special events from the Bay Area to Los Angeles, and NYC; Hip Hop took a negative turn during the media hyped East-West turmoil and the Hip Hop Hall of Fame suffered in the downturn, only to rise again today with a vengeance to finally complete the Hip Hop Hall of Fame Museum & Entertainment Complex "Coming to NYC in 2010."
