J.A.G. Music and Media Hosts the 2nd “She’s So Fresh” Showcase Click picture to go to Blessroxwell.com "She's So Fresh" Showcase Overview There was a time when a woman in Hip Hop held a microphone and not only created music on par with the men, but were treated as equals. For reasons that will be debated for years to come, that has changed. In recent years, the presence of the woman in Hip Hop has been reduced to one of visual physicality and sensuality. J.A.G. Music & Media, via the “She’s So Fresh” Showcases, is ensuring that the presence of women in Hip Hop reflects one of respect, honesty and strength by partnering with entities that share similar values and a desire to support Hip Hop and the Woman Hip Hop artist in particular. Enter stage left: the “She’s So Fresh” Showcase You may have checked out Bless Roxwell's "She's So Fresh" Fridayz which appears every Friday on The Bloom Blog as per the always wonderful Fiona Bloom of THE BLOOM EFFECT, where she profiles a different Woman in Hip Hop every Friday, from Woman MC's to DJ's to Filmmakers, Dancers and Writers! The positive response has been amazing and surprising, as the Hip Hop Community, lovers of Hip Hop, supporters of Women in the Arts and supporters of women in general have embraced the features and the idea of "She's So Fresh" overall. Going one step further, the “She’s So Fresh” Showcase serves as a performance platform for women in Hip Hop and Urban Arts. Being a female Hip Hop Artist, Bless Roxwell is acutely aware of the necessity for venues and outlets for the Woman MC to showcase their skills. The “She’s So Fresh” Showcase is bringing the female voice to the front and center in Hip Hop while realigning, reinforcing and solidifying the strength, talent and genius of the female voice in Hip Hop music. Infused with the heart of the art form of Hip Hop, the “She’s So Fresh” Showcase will feature an assortment of female artists from different backgrounds and experiences. Highlighting the strength and creativity of women in the Hip Hop and the Urban Arts community, it is an unprecedented event giving voice to the unheard, untapped market for female Hip Hop artists. Focusing mainly on the Woman MC, it is providing a unique opportunity for sponsors seeking to reach the young urban female market in major urban enclaves, starting with NYC. The first “She’s So Fresh” Showcase took place on August 6, 2009 and was a huge success!
