- About Me
- Jacqueline Taylor-Adams, a marketing geek if there ever were one; an idea person and lover of the arts as well. So, the gemini in me took the idea ego and paired it with my marketing ego, put on my cultural arts frame and poof -- out came, The Master Griot Project and the Black Business Space Value Tour.
"Changing linear public and industry perceptions of spoken word... MGP's positioning and strategic partnering produces limitless opportunities of revenue producing, mind enhancing, positive word play..."
The Master Griot ProjectTM, an act of Social Entrepreneurship, with the pure intent to harness the growing popularity of Spoken Word/Performance Poetry into a blend of altruism and marketing that will help build effective African American communities. The Master Griot Project™ uses the great artistry and words of master level performance poets with varied styles and ages to market the diversity and viability of spoken word to audiences ages 12 to 55, advertising and marketing agencies, institutions of learning and cause-driven movements.
The Black Business Space Value Tour, an extension of the Black Business Space experience, manifests itself as an entertainment and business development product that is for the community made from the community. BBSVT speaks to businesses' and artists' commitment to the community AND the community's (you, me, we) commitment to its businesses, institutions, and artists.

DID YOU KNOW HIP HOP HISTORY MONTH EXISTS? SIGN THE PETITION!
INTERNATIONAL/ USA – March 15, 2009 – Not many people know that HIP HOP has its own HISTORY MONTH, in November. And…HIP HOP HISTORY MONTH has been established as November, for some years. On NOVEMBER 12, 1974, the name “Hip Hop” was born. Thus, November 12, every year, is the actual anniversary of hip hop.
Why does the public not know this? And for those who do, why have we not highlighted and celebrated this more? Why haven’t hip hop artists pushed or promoted this month and day more, to commemorate their passion, industry, and stance as hip hop artists?
Well, this has changed and is continuing to change? More industry Execs and Artists are jumping on the band wagon to highlight this achievement in hip hop culture. This is fast-becoming a movement of sorts.
WE URGE EVERYONE TO SIGN THE PUSH for HIP HOP HISTORY MONTH FOR THREE REASONS:
1. TO ENCOURAGE MORE “REAL” HIP HOP EDUCATION DURING THIS MONTH
2. TO FORCE THE MEDIA TO HIGHLIGHT “THE REAL” HIP HOP HISTORY MONTH OF NOVEMBER.
3. WE NEED PEOPLE TO VOICE THEIR OPINIONS MORE AND COMMIT TO ACTION – IT’S A MUST!!!!
THE LINK TO SIGN THE PETITION IS:
