The theme of 2008's 5th annual Street Conference is "24 Hours of Hip Hop" - A chance to pay homage to Hip Hop culture by uniting unsigned, worthy artists with industry bosses to make possible, their next record deal and to provide opportunities that will be career-enhancing. The Conference, founded by the creators of the new, internationally distributed magazine, Streets Mos, is dedicated to opening the doors of opportunity for independent artists and will have a combination of industry insiders and the hottest, unsigned talent in attendance. The Twist: Streets Mos has received the distribution to release a compilation album through Koch Entertainment, courtesy of Corey McKay (Legal Hustle Music Group/Koch Ent.) otherwise known as "Cormega," formerly of The Firm. McKay, who fully endorses the Magazine, recognizes it as a platform to promote and expand awareness of unsigned talent. Lead sponsor Will Roberson, the Quincy Jones of Hip Hop and CEO of Diggin 4 Brown says, "I believe in the vision of what they are doing and it's only natural that I support a movement that supports where I come from: The Streets." Special thanks also goes to sponsor, B. Mack of Foundation Magazine (Mixtape Culture) for helping to make this event possible. Reputable promoters have also signed on to partake of this auspicious event, and contributed a 10K giveaway promotional package toward the winner of the "STREET ARTIST of THE YEAR" title, who will be announced by panel judges.
