MIAMI, FL (PRWEB) April 3, 2004 ---Gem Entertainment Group has just released, Hip Hop Record Producer, an exciting and surprisingly affordable music production software targeted towards aspiring hip hop artists. To support this launch, hiphopstarz.com is conducting a nationwide search in the spirit of American Idol. The Hip Hop Starz Win a Record Contract Contest is designed to allow users of this software the creative control they need to gain valuable exposure...not by copying someone elses song but by CREATING their very own song! There are five relevant categories where contestants can enter their creations: Best Hip Hop, Best Pop, Current Events Tracks, Dance and Inspirational Sports Tracks. Contest winners will have the opportunity to publish their songs on the next edition of Hip Hop Jamz, a music compilation CD and gain promotion on a record pool with leading mix DJs and over 200 record labels.

The Original Beat Box and the Godfather of Hip Hop, Doug E. Fresh, is the official spokesperson for Hip Hop Starz in commercials that are currently airing on MTV, MTV2, VH1, Fuse, ESPN and WB. The spots were filmed in Harlem, NY -- a cornerstone of Hip Hop culture -- and were created to resemble a music video.

ABOUT HIP HOP STARZ

With the Hip Hop genre outselling all other forms of music in recent years, there is a growing interest and desire among young people to try their hand at Hip Hop musical production. This unique software tool allows these consumers to do so easily and affordably. Hip Hop Starz also includes two bonus CDs: Hip Hop DJ Mixing Software and Hip Hop Jamz. DJ is a program that lets you spin, mix and beat match MP3 tracks on your PC like a pro. Jamz provides a sample of the mixing capabilities that are possible with this software.
