HIPHOSSIP MUSIC BLOG TEAMS UP SECOND SET OF TORONTO RAPPERS TO RECORD PSA'S FOR THE TORONTO POLICE TAVIS SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS INITIATIVE
Crime victim advocate, Publicist and Music Journalist Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo has paired up local rappers with the Toronto police to record public service announcements for the ongoing TAVIS initiative. She has been hosting free press conferences for families of crime victims to make appeals to the public for tips on their homicide cases and has always been a strong supporter of Toronto Crime Stoppers and "Prevention" of crime in youth.
The Toronto Anti-Violence Intervention Strategy is a Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services provincially funded initiative, dedicated to creating and maintaining sustainable, safe neighbourhoods. TAVIS initiatives are operating in all of the 17 Toronto police Divisions and are supported by every unit in the Service.
The key message for this TAVIS PSA is that TAVIS officers are there to help the community, not harass them. TAVIS officers listen and talk with community members and the goal is to work together and basically the two parts to TAVIS is community building and enforcement.
In May 2010, Kemi whose music and PR blog HipHossip.com and Fanada.ca features You Tube videos of appeals from crime victims teamed up five local Toronto rappers with Z103.5FM and TAVIS from all corners of the city, ethnic groups and nationalities for this project. The Rappers Nes (Noel Esso), Berg Bauge (Tony Rosier), Gilly Gadan (Gilliano Joseph), Kadar Star (Kadar Hall) and Jay Stacks.
Now June 2010, HipHossip had teamed up another 5 rappers with TAVIS and a female R&B singer DJ DjChrissay N MissUnique, The Rap group M.S.S consisting of Brad Lyko, Andrew Slowly and Schenks as well as Jordan Kelly and JStaffz to record brand new PSA's at Flow 93.5 Radio station studios on Tuesday June 15th 2010 at 1pm sharp.
Any media wishing to videotape them while rapping the PSA's and interview this team of talented musicians on why they chose to be part of this initiative, and how they are planning to change other lives and motivate youth in the community and getting the public to support TAVIS should contact me. They will also be available after 1.30pm shortly after the recording at Flow 93.5FM for interviews. Flow 93.5FM studios is located at 211 Yonge St. Suite 400, Toronto, ON M5B 1M4 Tel#: 416-214-5000
HipHossip has also just teamed up in a brand partnership with US network Black Entertainment television (BET) on a new hip-hop show "The Deal." As a Canadian partner and Correspondent, we hope to expose the world to our breed of positive rappers in the community. All TV media are encouraged to come in to Flow 93.5FM to shoot visuals of these rappers as they record the public service announcements. This will be the first time cameras are allowed in a taping.
